I have a 13 game plan and have already purchased my playoff package. No email for additional tickets yet.

I just assumed I wouldn't be able to buy more tickets until after the current offer for 2015 season plan deposits....which ends sunday at midnight.

"Make a deposit by Sunday, September 21 at 11:59 p.m. on a 2015 Season Plan and be guaranteed an opportunity to buy 2014 Orioles postseason tickets before the general public."

But thanks for the heads up....hopefully I see an email today. Will report back when I get it.

And how will the extra ticket offer work? How many additional tickets/games will we be able to buy? Any idea?

So my wife is saying we can go to a game, but I told her it's a little convoluted in how you go about getting tickets. I registered but I assume I'm probably just going to be looking on Stubhub. Anyone got an idea how much people will jack them up on there? I usually buy regular season from there and it's pretty reasonable...but I can't imagine what the playoff games are going to be like.

You can buy up to the amount of your 2014 season ticket package. So if you currently have 2 season tickets you can buy 2

Additional per game.

Yeah, I know I'll only be able to buy 2 per game, but I guess I was asking if ALL games would be available to purchase from. Or if we had a limited pool with the 13 game package. I guess only time will tell.

I'm really hoping to get game 1 tix to each round since my 6 ticket playoff package was for game 2 of each round.

My buddy was looking yesterday at some site....not sure if it was stubhub or not, but 2 seats in section 60 for game 2 of ALDS were like $415 bucks. I paid $140 for 2 seats in section 64. I'd say you're looking at $150-$200 per ticket in lower level for first round.

And make sure you register her also. I got game 1 ALDS tickets back in 2012 with a similar registration.....so there IS a chance.

Looks right. Got four in section 53 for $160 a piece for game 1. Game 2 tickets were a tad higher.

    • Are their ways to make your team better in October that don't manifest in April-September?
    • Maybe Darth Vader retires before Gunnar hits the market .. this article is a tease .. vague comments by Jim Callis.. still he is 71    https://www.essentiallysports.com/mlb-baseball-news-exclusive-scott-boras-set-to-retire-next-year/
    • If he wasn’t a catcher Rutschman would be one of the few exceptions that I’d extend long term. He’s a winner and a natural leader. Otherwise, unless the player is the one driven for long term security and there’s a financial upside/discount for the team, you have to ride them as far as you can and then let ‘em go.    I think Elias has a really difficult job ahead of him in the next year +. Maintaining the same fire/winning culture this team has established while going through a lot of player turnover is going be a challenge for Hyde too. Sorry…..I veered off-subject 
    • While I do agree with you to an extent you can certainly make moves that are more targeted towards winning in the playoffs over making the playoffs. They might not work, but you can make the attempt.
    • I wouldn’t be surprised if Westburg or Cowser (pending a bit more sample size of success) are the first extensions.
    • The second question is - what extensions can the Orioles do with guys other than these 4, who are not Boras clients? Don’t want to rehash the “Boras clients don’t extend” debate, but let’s assume whatever they can do with these 4 doesn’t impact the ability to do other extensions.  Grayson: With 5 years of control after this one, it would have to be something like 6 years + a couple option years. Possible, but not super high priority.  Bradish: Entirely TBD on how he returns from injury, and even then a bit of the same question as Grayson with so much control remaining.  Westburg, Cowser and Kjerstad: Lumping them all together because I think it’s similar considerations. At their ages when their years of control expire, I don’t think it really makes sense. All 3 have been phenomenal to start the year but still have significant question marks about their games (really high whiff rates and not great K/BB for Westburg and Cowser, Kjerstad’s defense, chase rate and of course not yet facing MLB yet). Mayo and Basallo: Given their ages they are going to be the best candidates, IMO. However, it’s premature now for obvious reasons, particularly with the major questions about how much defensive value they are going to provide at the MLB level.  Unfortunately I have a hard time seeing any extensions happening in the near future, even if Elias and Rubenstein have all the best intentions of wanting to do them. 
    • My opinion in principle depends on the duration of the FA contract.  For the Orioles as currently constructed, the roster will be inexpensive over next 3 years with most premium guys either pre-arb or early arb years.  That would make me lean toward FA signing of elite SP this upcoming offseason. Now last winter we saw only Nola receive long duration contract at 7yrs (I’m putting Yamamoto & Ohtani in separate category given the JP marketing angle).  The industry seemed reticent to give $$$ and length to the other premium SPs (Snell, Montgomery) but was this Boras driven?  Would the premium SPs be willing to sign 3-4 yr deals at higher AAVs or instead play out essentially one year deals?  Example — would a guy like Burnes go for 4/175M? the market dynamics will be interesting this upcoming offseason with demand (which big market clubs pursuing — Cubs, LAA, SFG, NYY?) and supply (Burnes, Fried as FAs and Montgomery, Snell, Cole as potential opt outs).  As well as Boras negotiating factor.
