I get criticized here but to me baseball in cold weather wasn't fun to play, isn't fun to attend, and isn't fun to watch. The owners extended the season to 162 games so they could make more money. Start April 15 and add more Saturday doubleheaders then end the regular season mid September. Baseball is a summer sports not an early and late winter sport.

Or maybe build an organization using weather to your advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralChamps21 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I just need a break from this team right now. The front office made bad decisions in the offseason The manager has made bad decisions during the season It's cold and the ball is dead Yet at the end of the day, this lineup minus Vaughn and TA is downright miserable. None of the different decisions by the front office or the manager we would have preferred would have fixed this. These guys have to start hitting, and they need to do it soon.

While it’s still obviously early, Joc + Rodon have been difference makers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that game I went to Tuesday if the Sox had Rodon instead of Keuchel starting they'd have lost 1-0 instead of 6-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're cap strapped once they re-sign LaVine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used the lively balls in that 1st inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
