Yes, and if you want insurance or health care to cost less, you're going to have to choose an entirely different model than the current one.

To everyone complaining about not having a better choice than Biden:  do you really want Trump making a couple hundred more judicial appointments that will re-shape laws for the next 20-40 years?  I hope you don't care about voting rights, abortion rights, LGBTQ rights, government transparency, checks on presidential power......do I need to go on?

Environmental laws. Or handling the next pandemic.

How would you compare Robert Hassell to Jarred Kelenic coming out of high school?
Keith Law

Kelenic was the clearly better prospect.

I don't see how MLB is going to pull this off without doing a bubble like the NBA is doing. So many health variables with the way they've chosen to do it
Keith Law

I guess the counterargument is that the NBA's bubble increases the odds of a bigger outbreak if one person gets sick, no?

My draft-crazy friend, let's call him Baby Foley, keeps telling me the Cardinals really scored with Ian Bedell. We read your recap on The Athletic about his back-end starter potential. Anything else to add?
Keith Law
2:03
No, nothing more. That's what he is.

Which starter will break out this year to a top of rotation starter?  Plesac?  Ross?  Others?
Keith Law
2:03
I'll do some kind of breakouts piece in July, although it'll obviously be a bit different than normal.

If Marcus Stroman has a typical year how much would a qualifying offer ruin his Free Agent market?
Keith Law
2:04
He'd be near the top end of the market and I don't think it'll affect him. Mid-tier FA get killed by the comp picks.

Keith: Did this recent nonsense increase or decrease the odds of a work stoppage down the line?
Keith Law
2:04
It didn't alter the odds, but made it clear that the odds were higher than we realized they were.

Do it for the elderly, the immune-compromised, the high-risk, even if you don't feel like doing it for your friends and your family.
