Cubs president Andy MacPhail informed the Chicago press that the team will fly back to Chicago on Wednesday night to wait out the storm. If the brunt of the storm passes by Saturday morning, the Cubs are planning to fly to Florida on Saturday morning, open the series on Saturday night and play a doubleheader on Sunday.

That works for me

I echo the sentiment that there are more urgent matters at hand than baseball.

 

I keep saying my prayers that Frances leaves us all unaffected.

I've got tickets to all 3 games, it'll be pretty tough for the hurricane to hit on Saturday morning then go to a baseball game Saturday night.

I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Sat didn't happen either, just saying it looks like Friday is officially out.

Yeah, lol. They expect everything to be all dandy just because the storm left? There is the aftermath....But hey if it works out then prefect because we're at home and we end up playing all 3 games here.

why dont they play in chicago this weekend and in fla next?

Phins

So basically the Cubs are going to sit at home and see what the storm does, and if the brunt stays north, fly down and play a doubleheader and a game on sat and sun.

 

Sounds fair enough, just whatever they do, don't put the 3 games scheduled for PPS at Wrigley, that'd be beyond unfair.

I'd be more inclined to think they will sneak a doubleheader into Sep 20 when they are both off if they can't get 2 done this weekend.

Aww shucks.. I cant wait for this series..

Momentum is on Marlins side with these great games they've been playing, so ideally we need to play Cubs ASAP.

screw the dolphins.

I understand the drainage system at PPS is excellent but we are talking about a tremendous amount of rain, certainly more than the a person can reasonably assume the system can handle.

Because if the Dolphins weren't playing, we could just swap the road trips. Since they are playing, it makes things complicated and we'll probably have to end up playing a double header.

 

SCREW THE DOLPHINS!

I saw Jeffrey Loria after the game tonight and he said that they'll likely play a day-night doubleheader sunday and make up the third game later

All I would like to know is which game do the people with tickets to SATURDAY'S GAME go to?

 

 

 

Somebody please let me know in this thread or please PM ME when you information regarding this. I'd greatly appreciate it.

Wait til it's cancelled.

OK. Admin if you can, may you please PM about this when it is known, since I believe you also have tickets to Saturday's game.

They should try to play the games on Saturday and Sunday. If they cant play on Saturday for some reason, then play a double header Sunday and make the game up at the end only if it will make a difference in us or the Cubs making the playoffs or not.
