Brian, this rainout is a snow job! My buddy Mike is in Chicago and he said that it isn’t even raining right now, not even on the south side. It’s been spotty rain, he says, but that doesn’t sound like the kind of day where a game would be cancelled hours before the first pitch.

Thome AND Dye are out of the lineup, and a game against a division rival is cancelled this way? Garbage! I demand an investigation!
