Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell says he is perplexed by a second consecutive rainout after poor weather disrupted two games in two locations. The Cubs’ scheduled series opener Monday night against the New York Mets at Citi Field is postponed due to weather conditions and is moved to a later date. The game is rescheduled as part of a day-night doubleheader on Wednesday at Citi Field. Counsell and the Cubs had also been affected by rain earlier, when their game at Wrigley Field on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays was washed out and did not proceed as planned. With the Monday Mets game shifted into the doubleheader, the Cubs’ schedule is adjusted to accommodate the earlier postponement. The reports describe Counsell’s frustration at back-to-back disruptions, but do not indicate any on-field issues beyond the weather. The rescheduling keeps the Mets series underway through the updated Wednesday slate at Citi Field.
