His blocking game was out of control. Hambone had some bad takes, but who doesn't. Not like he's (frank)ing Harrington.

It's funny...I didn't follow him on Twitter so I doubt I ever replied to one of his tweets... but I was even blocked when I looked at a tweet of his that was retweeted so I could see it.
Just had to laugh as I recall many people female doging about it.

Question for my Buffalo friends:

What are the facilities like at Sahlen Field?

Suitable for MLB?

Jays are probably going to need a home south of the border this year.

Very nice ballpark. Could be a major league stadium if you added seats.

Lundell would be a quality pick at 7, let alone at 10.
- kingcong39

Hey I have liked Lundell for awhile, I have written about him before. He might be the most pro ready other then Rossi out of any of the picks, and safest. Be fine at 10, but I want Byfield or Holtz.

I don't think the number of seats will be a problem.

Keep in mind I have an IQ of 70, but it seems to me it's either their spring training facilities in Dunedin or Buffalo.

Buffalo would probably make the travel a tad bit easier.

And I guess there's always the hope that they allow limited crowds in September - which would give Buffalo another slight edge.

Stay tuned!

The stadium was built with potential for upgrades to turn it into a full MLB stadium.

We'd love to have you guys south of the border.

I live in Florida around spring training sites...I don't think the players would relish playing in 96 temp and 90% humidity down here, with some heavy rain every afternoon.

He and the NJ and CT governors are doing the same thing Florida did back in March and April. Florida couldn't really enforce it.

Ya, unfortunately I think he is justified in this case ... and my wife was planning to fly up from Florida tomorrow AM while I was scheduled to come up next Friday.
Some major events to attend that we will sadly miss
-Friend's daughter ( who is like a daughter to us) funeral for her husband who passed suddenly
-Granddaughter's 1st Bday party
-Father-in-law's 80th Bday

Saw it coming late last week though.

Neither can any other state unless people are "jailed" in a common location...which would be ripe for all kinds of law suits...especially when an outbreak occurs there and people die while captive.

Two weeks ago I did that returning from Virgina from a long weekend.
No way I was sitting on I95 for 3 hours.
Took the back roads... added about an hour travel time...but likely saved 2

They also had the national guard boarding planes arriving from places in those states, so people who took connections were safe too. Even the people that did get their information taken by the authorities weren't really checked up on. No state has the manpower to do it. New York is going to have the same issue as Florida did. It's more muscle flexing than anything else.

Btw, for all the talk of Florida's rising cases, the average age in now in the 30s, which means their risk of death is lower than dying in a car accident. Its hospital capacity is still higher than it was in March. Your state will be fine.

If you guys are going to take the place over, at least call it by it's real name:

Pilot Field.

It's amazing. Brazil, Texas, Florida all blowing up because leadership didn't take this virus as serious as they should have.

Edit. Forgot about AZ

They ordered any traveler they took information from to quarantine. They never followed up.

The only way NY, or any state for that matter, can really enforce it is for residents to rat out their neighbors.
