Early Rumors For Saturday Fox-TV Dates

Once again, I have heard these may be the Cubs' Fox-TV dates... nothing set in stone yet, but these are rumored to be the ones as of now:

April 18 vs. Cardinals April 25 at Cardinals May 30 vs. Dodgers June 27 at White Sox July 11 vs. Cardinals August 22 at Dodgers August 29 vs. Mets Sept. 19 at Cardinals

If these hold up, those games would start at 3:07 Central time... the other Saturday home games would have a noon start. Fox can still add late-season games that have any playoff-race impact.

A lot of Cardinals dates both on ESPN and FOX, that's for sure.

I don’t really see the Brewers holding their own with the loss of Sheets and CC. I’d expect the Cardinals, as always when TLR is in charge, to make another run for the division. Should be some good battles with the Red Birds.

No Brewers?

I guess they feel the Brewers will suck this season.

I mean 4 Cardinals games is a one thing,
but 2 Dodgers games, C’Mon

People love division match ups!
Brewers line up with Fielder & Braun & Co
is still fun baseball to watch

So what if LA swept us last season,

Was that a haiku?

No but to clarify

 In Japanese, haiku are traditionally printed in a single vertical line, while haiku in English usually appear in three lines

Dodgers/Cubs...

… is probably because of last year’s playoffs, plus it’s two major markets matched up.

Erm, well if we are going to call Milton Bradley nicknames, mine is Fischer Price: yes, you heard it here first..

St Louis is really good

at putting the Cubs on anytime the Cardinals aren’t involved in another Fox game.

Speaking of which: Al, are any Cardinal games scheduled for Fox during the other four Cub games?

I'm not sure what you are asking here.

During the four Cubs games not against the Cardinals on Fox

are any Cardinal games scheduled to air on Fox.

Oh, I get it.

You’d have to look at the Cardinals schedule to try to figure that out.
