I'm not sure how the rain out against the Cards factors in since the Cubs didn't play that day.


It's just days, not games.

I just did some research, and it looks like you're correct. I stand corrected.

quote:

So, if the Cubs want that 2021 year of control over Bryant, he must miss 12 big league games next year, right?

Tut, tut. The operative word is “days,” not games. Presently, every team is scheduled to open the 2015 season on April 6, though there will be a game on April 5 (the Sunday Night Opening Game Or Whatever You Call It), and that will mark the official start of the big league season.

If the season starts on April 5, and Bryant need be kept down only 12 days, we’d be looking at April 17 as the first day he could come up – and stay up the rest of the season – with the Cubs securing an extra year of control. Based on those calculations, thanks to two off-days in the early going, Bryant would miss just 9 games at the start of the year before being called up.
