SCCWS Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) Living in Tampa area for the winter, I get to see a lot of the Rays. They get good starting pitching and Archer is good but they are an awful team. Remind me of some of the past expansion teams. A few good young players and veterans and the rest look like AAA material. More amazing, they are going w a 3 man rotation. They went into the year wanting a 4 man and one got hurt so they changed to a 3 man and use days off and bullpen day to get through. This franchise needs an implosion. the Sox should sweep as long as they get by Archer. Edited April 9, 2018 by SCCWS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 QUOTE (SCCWS @ Apr 9, 2018 -> 07:30 AM) Living in Tampa area for the winter, I get to see a lot of the Rays. They get good starting pitching and Cobb is good but they are an awful team. Remind me of some of the past expansion teams. A few good young players and veterans and the rest look like AAA material.

Richie Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Wouldn't mind if this game is just called and we get to the point where the weather is warming up tomorrow. Had enough of watching baseball in Bears weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth05 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) If they couldn't hit Cy Fiers yesterday, I have a hard time being optimistic they'll hit Archer much. This is as a close to a guaranteed "L" we've seen so far this year, especially with MiGo going. Edited April 9, 2018 by TheTruth05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had enough of watching baseball in Bears weather. I'm actually thinking they moved this game up to cancel it sooner. There is no reason to play the Tampa Bay Rays today. Play 2 on Wednesday when it might actually be 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 From 1-3, my phone says rain/snow and 38 degrees. At 7, it's clear and 35 degrees. Why the f*** did they reschedule this from night to day again? For 3 degrees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Might as well PPD it now and play 2 on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cubs home opener at the same time, I have no idea who would actually look forward to attending the Sox game today. I love going. I have zero interest. If they play 2 on Wednesday, I will go for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend had an extra ticket to the Cubs Brewers game on Saturday so I decided to go with him know there wouldn't be a delay, postponement, or watching in 20 degree weather. F***ing awesome watching a game comfortably when its like 20 degrees out. The final result sucked, however.

Unless you are on a plan, who is going to pick April games to attend? If there was a roof, Family Sunday would have drawn pretty big numbers yesterday. 11k announced, probably less than 10 actually there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F***ing awesome watching a game comfortably when its like 20 degrees out. The final result sucked, however. Been to Miller Park a handful of times. What a great place to watch a game. Retractable roof is the way too go in this climate. IMO I'm a purist in football. I think battling the elements is apart of the nature of that sport. Baseball? Snow, freezing rain, cold... etc... It has no place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
