Kyyle23 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 games are rarely cancelled because of wind. I dont see what the big deal is here, play the game and get it over with, move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 11:46 AM) Against division teams? Easy. I wouldn't be questioning this if it were against a team not coming back. It's not just the schedule. The players union wants their scheduled days off, and you can't just call games several days ahead of time because it MIGHT rain and be chilly.

Chisoxfn Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 09:13 AM) First off, if they're setting a rotation with fans in mind, they're playing with fire. I haven't second guessed anything this week- I've first guessed. Today should have been called. The Twins series should have been Shields, Holland, and Gonzalez. Quintana on Tuesday for the Indians home opener. Rotations change...pitching Q on normal rest makes absolute sense. He is the best pitcher on this club and you want to maximize his starts. Lots of teams skip 5th starters early in the season anyway (given the typical early season off-days). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's breezy but not that bad. I've walked around in far worse, although they have several streets closed here due to debris falling from the sky. Plus it's sunny, something we haven't had much of in months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) So 2-0 on Cabrera, instead of just telling him to take his base, Shields throws a WP allowing the runner to 3rd. Not a good move from the manager. Edited April 6, 2017 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 01:25 PM) What? Runner on 2nd Cabrera batting. Clearly pitching around him. Why bother? Just put him on. What is the best case scenerio of James Shields trying to give Miguel Cabrera nothing to hit? A walk IMO. So these days you don't have to actually throw pitches to walk someone.
