What are the chances the MLB tells Houston they have to keep it open like they did last time?

I love Minute Maid with the roof open and hate that it is not more often but hoping for the last very warm and muggy days before Houston gets some sorta "fallish" weather for any of the World Series games played here.

Subject to change, naturally, but the forecasts for Friday through Sunday as of right now:

Friday 80/56 20% chance of rain
Saturday 64/45. 50% chance of rain
Sunday 65/51 clear

Wow, actual fall type weather. Those temps for Saturday and Sunday are far too chilly for us Houstonians especially if we get the usual breeze that come with fronts. Roof closed.

Even if it was ideal weather they wouldn't open the roof.

MMP is much louder without the tops drop.

Which is why bud selig forced the roof to be open in 2005... .

You think Rob Manfred does the same?

Surely not...

POS Selig isn't running baseball anymore. He was out to screw Houston any time he could.

Just imagine how 1/6 would've played out if DC hadn't had such strict gun laws.

I don't understand what MLB can actually do about it if we say we are doing whatever the **** we want? If it's policy they care about, write something up and change the policy. It's our stadium. We should do whatever we damn well please.

Not sure if it changed, but in 2005 MLB made all stadium related decisions during the playoffs.

Crane would get to have a say, but MLB calls the shots, and they're influenced by television. Long story short, if Fox wants the roof open, it'll be open. Hope the chance of rain increases for the weekend.

If Fox has influence then I think it stays closed. Buck even made reference to how rowdy it was going to be in Houston. They know the atmosphere when it's closed.

After what happened in Vegas, I'd be surprised if that doesn't figure into the equation. I wouldn't want to be the guy who gave the order to open the roof of any stadium that has high rise buildings surrounding it.

If there are copycat Vegas shooters out there, an open stadium with a packed crowd has to be high on the list whether now or 10 years from now.

If a terrorist wants to make an impression, no better place to do it than from a building across from Minute Maid during the World Series.

So the network could dictate this? In what ****ing universe does that have any impact on the TV broadcast?

Its the universe where Fox pays MLB a gagillion $$ to broadcast the WS. If they want it open because it looks better on TV they will get a say in that.

Roof closed = better chance Kate is wearing less clothes.

Easy decision.

Yes, but cold air and a topless kate >>>>>>>> warm air and a topless kate. I will take my chances with her being topless to start.

Guarantee the roof is open Saturday and Sunday. Could be closed Friday with 40% chance of rain at game time.

Friday: 69/44 - 40%
Saturday: 65/43 - Sunny
Sunday: 71/54 - Sunny

ETA: I will be pleasantly surprised if they manage to keep it closed.
Last I saw the low for Saturday was in the 30s... may be too cold for it to be open

Likely open all three games because the league office wants it that way. Rain on Friday is forecasted for the morning.
