It's going to be a memorable opening day for being bad. Just one game. Just have to put up with Danks being terrible 25% of the time.

Masters weekend. Thank god.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 02:38 PM) Baseball players are weak. 162 games in 182 days.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 02:30 PM) They'll get tomorrow's game in I think. I hope so anyway. I'll be in attendance. Supposed to be less than 40 degrees but no precipitin in the forecast for tomorrow. First pitch tomorrow supposed to be 35 with a real feel of 28. They could definitely play the "inclement weather" card tomorrow. Those hats will come in handy.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 02:24 PM) I thought that was tomorrow? You're right. A lot of players and others have been wearing them today. Magnetic schedules today. Hats tomorrow--so those will be given out in May.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 02:21 PM) everyone wants those snow hats They did nail that promotion! Remember last year, blanket day got postponed until summer.

Just one game, but I think that Zimmermann signing is going to be good for the Tigers. He's a good pitcher.

This would have been an easy call to postpone before they started charging more for Opening Day.

I think if they were to cancel it, there would only be 161 games this year.

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.

I have to remember them, so after 1977 to present: 1- Lance Johnson 2- 3- Harold Baines 4- 5- Ray Durham 6- Jorge Orta 7- Scott Fletcher 8- Bo Jackson 9- 10- Alexei Ramirez 11- Rudy Law 12- AJ Pierzynski 13- Ozzie Guillen 14- Paul Konerko 15- Tadahito Iguchi 16- Julio Cruz 17- Jerry Hairston 18- Cliff Politte 19- Greg Luzinski 20- Ron Karkovice 21- Todd Frazier 22- Scott Podsednik 23- Robin Ventura 24- Joe Crede 25- Jim Thome 26- Ellis Burks 27- Greg Hibbard 28- Joey Cora 29- Jack McDowell 30- Tim Raines 31- Lamarr Hoyt 32- Alex Fernandez 33- Aaron Rowand 34- Freddy Garcia 35- Frank Thomas 36- Chris Widger 37- Bobby Thigpen 38- Pablo Ozuna 39- Roberto Hernandez 40- Wilson Alvarez 41- Tom Seaver 42- Ron Kittle 43- Bob James 44- Chet Lemon 45- Carlos Lee 46- Jason Bere 47- Tony Graffanino 48- Ralph Garr 49- Chris Sale 50- Barry Jones 52- Jose Contreras 55- Carlos Rodon 56- Mark Buehrle 73- Tony Phillips 79- Jose Abreu

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 08:31 AM) The Lau thing is bizarre. Classic Reinsdorf White Sox...if you're going to retire it, they should have retired it in the 80s. Now it's just a weird thing. Agreed. Put up an In Memorium plaque in the park, but retiring a good low number that a player would like to wear is overboard.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 08:26 AM) What's the deal with nobody wearing #6 but it not being retired? Charley Lau was the Sox hitting coach in 1983- he may have been sick already. He died before the 84 season, and Reinsdorf unofficially retired the number. I think Walt Hriniak wore it, but it's been out of commission.

Good story from Ogrin. It was exciting back then when he would occasionally contend. Big Cubs fan.

Rain delay right before Adams was going to take the mound. That sucks.

Timmy with a single off Snell.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 05:47 PM) Let's take 2/3 from Cleveland to make us 5-2. Win-ppd-Win Just messin' with you.

Happy flight! Good start to the season. Clutch homers. Good starting pitching. Dig it.

Robertson better not have to get up.

Charlotte game in a rain delay.

Good. 3 more outs. Insurance please.

QUOTE (wizeguy57 @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 05:04 PM) Why do i feel a 3-2 loss is coming. You wouldn't be a Sox fan if you didn't.

Dull reminds me of Donn Pall.
