How early would fans be notified if it's rained out?

 

They'll definitely try to wait as long as possible, but if it looks like an all day soaker, which it's looking like, maybe by 11am. Just depends on the radar and how long they think it will last.

Made a deal with the devil. Going to work at 3am Monday, I work till 11. So me and my family can attend the game. Our first opening day.

Good luck, sir!

I don't expect him to try and lose. I expect him to get the most out of his players to increase the older guys' value to trade for prospects. That's how we keep the win total down.

 

If all goes to plan, guys like Moncada (for however long he's up), Anderson, and Rodon have solid, building block seasons, but the White Sox still are bottom five in baseball.

And as far as the Joe Maddon thing, that stuff just happens. I want to give Renteria a better shot than he got on the north side

 

that would be perfect.

I for one hope that the Sox will not intentionally keep the win total down. That strategy worked for the Cubs, but if several teams start to intentionally tank seasons just to vie for a high Draft pick, it would diminish competitiveness across the league and hurt major league baseball. It's also kind of kind of a pimpy/wimpy strategy that cheats fans of the teams that might choose to go down that road.

 

 

 

 

If it rains, will they do the makeup game on Tuesday, which is their scheduled off-day? If anyone knows

Yes. I believe that is the purpose of the scheduled off day.

Made my work schedule so I could watch opening day on Monday.. Not gonna happen

I don't see this one being played on Monday.

90% chance of rain now.

 

Tickets are down to $6 on stubhub.

Wish all Sox fans a safe and productive 2017 season. It won't be productive in the win column but if the veterans can be healthy and put up some numbers, it will be productive in the sense that they can then get traded for various degrees of younger talent.

 

So let's hope that's the case.

 

At least baseball is back and that's a good thing.

That is for nose bleed seats in the corners of the upper deck. IMO, those sections should probably should be replaced with a restaurant or bar for upper deck ticket holders.

 

I hope they call the game soon. I need to know to make plans for tomorrow. One problem is that Tuesday's forecast might not be much better as we get closer to it.

Saladino, Anderson, Cabrera, Abreu, Frazier, Asche, Garcia, Narvaez, May

 

Go rebuild!

 

Postponed means the game will be made up. Cancelled means it won't. Don't ask if the game is cancelled, because it won't be.

Who said the if the game is rained out that it would not be made up ?

It's my preemptive strike against people that don't know the difference between a postponement and a cancellation.

This whole week looks like crap. The entire Tigers series looks bad each day...except for Tuesday when they play the opener.

 

Hopefully they do the right thing and postpone early tomorrow morning before people would start making their way to the park.

Yeah the people who say a game is cancelled for the most part sound stupid.

It just bugs me when the Rongey types say "today's game is cancelled. It will be made up tomorrow". Um, no.

People say canceled because in real life people use delayed and postponed more interchangeably, so they say canceled to let them know the game ain't happening that day. To the people communicating it isn't confusing at all so I'm gonna side with them.

Languages are fluid and always changing. I'm with you. Most people understood what happened.

What's the percentage they get this game in tomorrow?

I think real low. Even the temps look fairly low. They could just say "inclement weather" and be done with it until Tuesday.

I want them to play tomorrow, but there's really no good reason to keep it tomorrow when Tuesday looks like good weather.
