Steff Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 QUOTE(Coasterbill @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 05:13 PM) The Astros should have control over thier roof. It's thier stadium. Catch 22. It's MLB's game. And... is it the Astro's...? Or is it Minute Maid's... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBetsy Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 02:40 PM) It's MLB's show. I don't disagree...but I wish they could just say, "Here's our rule...it's open when it's below X degrees out and not raining. No exceptions." There shouldn't be any ad hoc efforts. One rule for the season and post-season, and put it in the official rule book for everyone to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLB controls the playoffs and all aspects of it. Like I said before.. this is about $$. The blimp paid a rumored $4 million $$'s to show the above shots. MLB isn't about to give that $$ back - not to mention the teams since that $$ goes into the pool to be split with the players. If the Stros want the roof closed so badly cough up the cash and they can close their roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxin' Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Closing the roof is a rule of Major League Baseball. Houston's disadvantage. Having the pitcher hit is a rule of Major League Baseball. Chicago's disadvantage. All the media and the Astros should stop b****ing and play baseball.
