Soxbadger Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 So I can go to the Addison stop and watch a free exhibition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 First exhibition on a Sunday Night in an empty Wrigley Field. Weird, but damn right we’ll watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerksticks Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 I already want this to be how regular seasons go from now on. Just tons of regional action. Love finishing the season against the cubs. How exciting. That should be every year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EloyJenkins Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 This is absolutely a winnable schedule. Yes the last 14 games are tough. But think about this: 10 against Tigers 10 against Royals 4 against Pirates 24/60 games against 3 of the worst 5 teams. Sox always win at least half of the Cubs games (3 guaranteed wins, 4 most likely) Sox play 20 of 30 home games in August when the ball flys out the rate at high numbers This schedule has so many great things going for it. 33-36 wins is ON THE TABLE.

The last 14 are going to be tough, but the previous 14 are against the royals, tigers, pirates, and 3 mixed in with the twins. It balances out but those last 2 weeks are gonna definitely be a test Edited July 6, 2020 by ScooterMcGee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Last four series: Sox- 4 vs Min, 3 at Cin, 4 at Cle, 3 vs Cubs Min- 4 at Sox, 3 at Cubs, 2 vs Det, 3 vs Cin Cle- 2 at Cubs, 4 at Det, 4 vs Sox, 3 vs Pit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofaRoache Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 We have a top 5 weak SOS, the Twins series is in our favor from a location perspective, we have about 24 games against Tigers, Royals, and Pirates. We will be okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiddleCoastBias Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I wonder why no double-headers? Thought with the compressed timeline, we might see a few of those to get people in and out of a city, limit the number of nights in hotels, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want them in and out of there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about the rainouts. Wash out a two-day series and there could be major headaches. What happens if that St. Louis series or Cincinnati series hits a bad patch of weather? That could be a nightmare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
