2Deep Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I don't know how you all feel but it might not be bad for us to have the games v cardinals canceled this weekend. It will give guys like Moncada to get healthy and for us to get maybe LOPEZ back without playing games, and maybe Madrigal gets closer to returning. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I'm with you. Sox could use a few days off. This might make up for some of the bad BABIP luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our offense seems to be on to something. Wr have a day off tomorrow and could play 3 games against a rusty and depleted team. Give me the 3 games. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoUEvenShift Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I get that argument, I also think our offense has just woken up again the past 2 days (thanks Dallas) plus the cards being super cold not playing for a while may be nice.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EloyJenkins Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Want 2 games. 2 days off with Friday cancelled is perfect. Can't have double headers on a compressed schedule 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Don't think St Louis is cancelling anymore games with the season carrying on, so I imagine the Sox luck out and get them first series back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 They can also arrange rotation, but limited pitch counts. Fri. Wainright Sat. Flaherty (uh oh) or Hudson Vs. Giolito Sun. Dakota Hudson, Flaherty or Ponce de Leon (no relation to explorer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EloyJenkins Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Cards hitters are going to be RUSTY. And their starters will be surely be on pitch counts. Gotta pounce on them. NO MERCY! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I think we definitely want to play tehse games. They have played in 2 weeks! I watched a couple of the Twins-Cards series before the CV tests, and the Cards looked really bad. I think its best of the Sox to play, sitting idle for 4.5 days midseason is a long time. Why are people saying they can't play Friday? Hasn't there only been 1 positive test in like the last 10 days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is supposed to be bullpen day, Giolito, Dallas. If we played a DH on Sunday I would assume it would be Giolito on Saturday, bullpen/Dallas on Sunday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After waiting so long, one extra day to be 100% safe, push back Saturday to a night game to give extra testing time and shortened DH on Sunday really does make the most sense for both organizations.

I think so too. No reason to rush this if the Cardinals have another fuckup their season is done and as a MLB fan I don't want teams to be disqualified by Corona.
