Tannerfan Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I love how it's opening day, fifth game of the season, we're 3-1, and you guys are talking about next year and draft compensation picks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhonnydanks Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 It is important to note that Oakland is likely to be the worst team in the AL.

Chisoxfn Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 07:38 AM) I've always liked Southside by Moby as the soundtrack for my White Sox. I remember ESPN playing it during the World Series run. I played Thunderstruck and Lets go go go go white sox prior to every single playoff game during that run. Me, superstitious, nah. I'm still waiting for my freaking world series ring...we all know none of that happens without me creating the Rally Crede!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 If this gets canceled, what happens to tomorrows game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 My annual tutorial on the difference between canceled and postponed- Cancel means the game is off the schedule and will never be made up. Postpone means the game is called with the intention of being made up. When media people get this wrong, they need to be punched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aryzner Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I'm about ready to leave so if they're gonna postpone it I'd prefer they do it very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 11:32 AM) where are the canceling sentiments coming from? No clue where people see that at. It is 40 degrees with some chances of rain but nothing major to cancel the game. Maybe a rain delay or push back the start time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 If they cancel they'll have to do it very soon. Hourly looms fine. 40% chance of rain at 3 but should be quick and nothing past that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 If they were going to cancel it in advance, I think it would be called by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lasttriptotulsa Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I don't live in Chicago, but judging by the weather reports I've seen I can't imagine this game gets postponed. It's a major hassle for everybody to postpone an opening day game and I think they'll hold out as long as possible to get it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I think if they were to cancel it, there would only be 161 games this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 QUOTE (ChrisLikesBaseball @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 10:45 AM) It is important to note that Oakland is likely to be the worst team in the AL. Gotta win the games you're supposed to win though. We've seen in years past how unexpected matchups can be. That can be true among all of MLB. Still, worst in the AL this season still means you're better than atleast 6-7 NL teams lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 My free week of MLBEI ends Sunday and I've already missed 3 games due to ungodly start times. Don't want to miss out on another! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I work downtown and got back from lunch 20 minutes ago. It isn't raining or snowing, and it's cold, but not shivering cold. Unless some accumulating snow or some pouring rain is coming, there will be baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
