PAPA AND LUND NOVEMBER 11 2020




The NBA has sent its 30 teams a memo with protocols for eligible markets to host fans, requiring people within 30 feet of court to register negative coronavirus test two days prior to game or rapid test on day of game, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Much will be missed about this Masters -- no Par-3 Tournament, no patrons, no merchandise tents -- but there is also much to celebrate. Let's start with the fact that, even amid a global pandemic, Augusta National was able to safely arrange for the Masters to be played at all. 


Brooks back? Remember when Koepka finished T2 at last year's Masters and would have won if he'd simply stayed dry on No. 12? I remember. That was before all the injury issues, of course, and the last 15 months have not been very memorable for the four-time major winner. However, he's coming off a pair of 65s on the weekend at the Houston Open and is playing better than he has in a long time. Of his 14 worldwide wins, he's finished in the top 10 (like he did in Houston) in the tournament directly preceding the tournament he won eight times. 

Weather effects: How Augusta will play in November has been overplayed a bit thus far, which means that how incoming weather could affect the event has necessarily been not covered enough. The course seems mostly the same, though McIlroy did say chipping will be trickier because the Bermuda has not died off yet -- but the weather report looks like rain all four days in Augusta. This could mean a sloppier event than normal replete with mud balls and soggy fairways. This probably favors the biggest hitters (what doesn't, though?), but regardless, it's something to monitor throughout the week.

1 PM SOUND: 



TOPICS:

1- 49ERS 

2ND HALF PREDICTION - ESPN NICK WAGONEER— 6-10 OUCH — WITH ALL THE INJURIES THOUGH — OK 

First half in two words: Injury ravaged. Yes, plenty of teams have been hit hard by injury, but none to the devastating extent of the 49ers. Nine games into their season, the Niners have $80.8 million worth of cap space on injured reserve, according to ESPN Stats & Information research. NFL teams are loathe to use injuries as an excuse for performance, but what's happened with San Francisco has been so overwhelming that there's just no other way to define its season so far.

Biggest question left to answer: Who will be the quarterback in 2021 and beyond? Jimmy Garoppolo is set to count about $27 million against the cap in each of the next two seasons, and if he doesn't play again this season (he's on injured reserve with a high ankle sprain), he will have missed 23 games in three full seasons with the Niners. Beyond that, there are still questions about whether Garoppolo can elevate his game to take coach Kyle Shanahan's offense to the next level even when healthy. Of course, for the Niners to decide to go in a different direction at quarterback, they must first be sure they can get somebody better. Garoppolo, despite his struggles, is still 26-9 as a starter, including the postseason. How the 49ers finish the season will go a long way in determining the options available to them.

Who is playing for his job in 2021? Whoever is playing quarterback. Garoppolo could miss the rest of the season with a second high ankle sprain, though there's hope that he could return late if the Niners are still in the mix. In the meantime, Nick Mullens and C.J. Beathard are the two remaining signal-callers, and both have something to prove. Mullens is a restricted free agent and Beathard is unrestricted after the season. The Niners are going to have many questions about this position going into the offseason, and it would benefit them to get some sort of clarity on where any or all of Garoppolo, Mullens and Beathard fit for 2021.

Final record prediction: 6-10. Finding many more wins for the 49ers as currently constructed is a difficult exercise given that five of their seven remaining games are against teams with winning records and playoff aspirations. At some point, the Niners will get some key players back from injury, but probably not enough to push them back into playoff contention. -- Nick Wagoner


49ERS: 



AT SAINTS - DO THEY HAVE A CHANCE WITH MOSTERT, DEBO, AIYUK , TARTT BACK?? 

-DID 49ERS MAKE A MISTAKE KEEPING ARMSTEAD OVER BUCK? 

Arik Armstead Sack Totals:

2015: 2
2016: 2.5
2017: 1.5
2018: 3
2019: ***10***
2020: 1.5 (on pace for 3)

Armstead's family should thank the heavens that the #49ers landed Bosa and Ford in a contract year.

SAINTS ARE ROLLING:

Saints are NFL’s #1 team, per DVOA, following that romp over Tampa. #6 offense, #7 defense. Seems like a fitting way for the 49ers to close the pre-bye stretch of their gauntlet, given that every juncture of this year seems to have taken the highest possible degree of difficulty 11/10/20, 11:58 AM

TREBEK: 



CONTINUED RUMORS THE GIANTS WILL BE PLAYERS IN OFF-SEASON 

Giants say 'everything is on the table'

The Giants missed the postseason by one game in 2020 -- they finished with the same record (29-31) as the Brewers but Milwaukee held the tiebreaker and got the No. 8 seed -- and they are going into the offseason with an open mind, according to Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic. President of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi said the team is open to anything. Here's what Zaidi told Baggarly:


KEN ROSENTHAL: THERE’S A MARKET FOR KEVIN GAUSMAN


Do not assume Kevin Gausman will take the qualifying offer. Gausman has received multi-year offers, sources say.  The Giants, who extended him the QO, are thought to be among the teams involved in the multi-year discussions.
