5 game series, incluiding a double header:

Apr 6 - [color=darkblue]H.Ram

It's actually a 4 game series. The stuff that happened yesterday doesn't count. They'll try to play 2 new games today and then on Sunday and Monday. It turned all the pitching matchups to Seattle's favor as they have basically skipped the terrible Horacio Ramirez and can pitch Felix Hernandez against some guy the Indians had to bring up from the minors for an emergency start. Give Mike Hargrove credit for stalling and refusing to allow the Mariners to lose a shortened game yesterday.

Hargrove actually did something positive to impact a game...I didn't know he knew how to do that. He saved Ramirez from taking a loss, saved Beltre from having three errors...good work.

I don't think yesterday was any indication of how good or bad Ramirez will be...the conditions were terrible, the delays probably made it difficult for him to stay loose, and his third baseman made three crucial errors. Sounds like the guy was getting groundballs like he's supposed to despite everything...

This sucks...the doubleheader's been postponed too.

I agree Sweezo thats the best job of managing Hargrove has done since being in Seattle.

So how is this going to be scheduled? Yahoo shows there being 3 games played tomorrow and that's obviously incorrect.

They'll play a doubleheader tommorow, one game on Monday. Then have to make up one game during both teams day off somewhere down the line.

Sheesh, I'd hate to see the weather if global warming was NOT occuring (insert sarcasm here).

Who is starting tomorrow for the M's?

this is all now very confusing...

and why didnt yesterdays game count, its all or nothing?

Wow, MLB schedulers are stupid. If a team is in cold weather and doesn't have a roof, make them playe their first two weeks on the road! It's ridiculous to invite this possibility!

Kudos to Mike Hargrove though for getting the game thrown out, that was sneaky. I liked it.

A MLB game isnt official until 4 1/2 innings are played, and during that first game, it was postponed due to snow after only TWO outs were recorded in the Mariners half of the 5th inning, meaning, Cleveland needed to get ONE more out for the game to be official.

Worked out great for us.

Ohio's lame.

Haha, yea it was one strike away from being an official game.

Well, looks like today's games (Sunday) are postponed too.
