Trying to avoid doubleheader vs a team not in the division. Rays don’t come back.

A DH on Wednesday shouldn't be too painful. The Sox travel to Minnesota, so hardly anything there, and Tampa is off on Thursday.

I agree, but they’re still trying to avoid it.

This situation makes me irrationally annoyed.

Of course, but at this stage, it is stupid. They already are going to have the thinnest of thin crowds since they changed the time, and everyone has a freebie anyway.

 

It would really be a shame if some player got injured today due to conditions.

it seems like the last few years have been brutal for early season Sox schedule problems. The riots in Baltimore, the rain, the snow...next year locusts?

And yet, teams like the Giants/Dodgers and Angels/Athletics have already played each other twice. Milwaukee opening up in San Diego also seems stupid.

Smart thing to do would have been to call it off this morning and play a straight doubleheader tomorrow starting at 1.

The White Sox should get a cold weather compensation draft pick. It would be as arbitrary and unfair as the competitive balance picks, which is exactly why they should exist.

At this point it seems more likely they'll move up tomorrows game to tonight for a doubel header and just make one day as miserable as possible rather than smoothing out the issue across later dates.

Anyone looking for a bargain, buy some $6 club level seats on stubhub. Even with the fees it's a steal, as any unused tickets for today's game can be exchanged for any other game except the Cubs.

A decent amount of teams would get those: Sox, Cubs, Twins, Tigers, Red Sox, Yankees, Mets, Pirates, Indians, Reds, Rockies, Orioles, Nats.

How do you redeem tickets from Stubhub to the White Sox?

Print them out, and exchange at the box office.

So if you don't go to the game and it isn't PPD, you can trade your ticket in?

 

An hour until first pitch... Looks like they're still planning on playing this thing?

Yes. They said any unused tickets for today can be exchanged for any game except the Cubs when they moved up the time.

They have pushed it back to 1:30. I feel sorry for the vendor that draws dipping dot duty today.

Did not know that. Not big on the 300 level but it would be nice stealing some dugout tix for really cheap.

20 more minutes of fresh Benetti comedy.

Apparently the Sox have some huge charity event tomorrow night so they can't play two tomorrow.

Views are great and the food is wonderful. What's there not to big on?

Ok, at least that’s a reason.

 

Hope it’s s quick win, and nobody gets hurt.

Saw that on Twitter right after my post.

 

And ha... it would suck. However, at the same time. Ain't nobody buying dipping dots in the snow. So long as you bundle up, you're basically getting paid to sit at a baseball game. Doing nothing.
