greasywheels121 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 QUOTE(indyman @ May 11, 2006 -> 01:07 PM) With a rainout looming, and it looked that way all week it is all the more puzzling why Ozzie & Kenny didn't just bump up everybody in the rotation. I would think every starter would rather have 4 days rest rather than 5 or 6. Perhaps it's because weather's always changing, and meteorologists aren't always correct.

Kalapse Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 White Sox | Contreras to receive injection Thu, 11 May 2006 10:39:04 -0700 Scott Merkin, of Chicago.WhiteSox.MLB.com, reports Chicago White Sox SP Jose Contreras (leg) was moving around the clubhouse and improving Wednesday, May 10. Contreras will get an epidural injection Thursday, May 11, to help relieve some of the remaining pain. Appearantly Count got an epidural today. This does sound encouraging.

Wealz Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Not official, but looks like tonight's game has been cancelled because they stopped selling tickets online for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxPride56 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Your right, tonights game has been canceled, an announcement will be coming within an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sets up the next series as Santana vs Garland Radke vs Vazquez Silva vs Buerhle Baker vs Garcia Brandon will then go against the Drays next week. And then it sets up the Cubs series as Buerhle, Garcia and the Count going against the flubbers. I like it.

Wealz Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 No doubt this is a bit of gamesmanship by the Sox since their bullpen could use a day off with the re-shuffling of roles due to Contreras' injury and Haeger's less than stellar performance last night. It actually doesn't look too bad here in Oak Lawn. Kudos to the organization for puting winning in front of profits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think there will be more people buying this ticket now with a rainy day, or maybe in August when the races heat up and School is out.

Wealz Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Depends where it's made up. The Angels could say that was our last trip to Chicago, have them play the make up game when their back in town in September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G&T Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 11, 2006 -> 01:51 PM) Do they pick the make up day today? If both teams have a common off day that works very easily then probably yes, but since the two teams don't play for a while there's no guarantee. And yes the game has to be played in Chicago for those who are worried about profits. They'll wait until the Angels are playing another Central team around these parts and throw the game in there. Er, that's what makes the most sense to me. I have tickets to this game so I'm pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but the outfield will have pools in it. They have good drainage at the Cell, but this has been too much rain with no break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
