I would say so. upper boxes are I think 15 dollar seats, but feel free to correct my mistakes.

For the majority of games upper Box is $18 and upper reserve is $12. However for the select, prime, and elite games the prices are higher and for the value games the prices are lower.

I sit in upper box right behind home plate. For 13 games, plus 13 B/C parking passes, its like $650, something like that. Plus you get ALL the perks of being a season tickets holder...ie Opening Day ticket rights, early entry to the stadium, postseason ticket rights, etc.

Let me ask this, as a new 2015 13-game holder. Were your seat locations for the playoffs determined by your season plan ticket location? i.e., did you get better seats for the playoffs, vs. someone who had a 13-game plan in upper reserve? Is there a different answer for the playoff tickets you received initially, vs. the ones for "extra playoff tickets" being offered to you today?

I think the answer is yes. I think they try to put people into the similar price level. they didn't do that for me, I got bumped lower, but as a "makeup" for it, I got 2nd row in left field lower level. so I got that going for me, which is nice.

as far as I know wrt extra tickets, you can buy what's available.

which presents a dilemma of sorts. if you wait, you might be able to zoom in and view which seats are available and which aren't. Im not sure how much I believe it when it says best available.

the converse is, that there will be a stampede of 13 game planners that indeed all the good seats will be gone, and rip lower level larry.

I'm in section 336, 13 game plan, 2 seats and my total invoice for the season was $356.

Well worth it considering I'll be able to get Upper Reserve playoff tickets for $30 each.

I am also section 336...like I said, directly behind home plate eh?

We are row 3, so you go DOWN when you come out from the concourse.

I got WORSE seats for the playoffs, but they were cheaper, so it is what it is. At least I got some.

In 5 minutes I'm gonna try and get better ones for Game 1.

If you can buy at 2 pm you should go in now. They have a virtual waiting room set up.....essentially you can get in line now.

In an effort to be completely fair, we've set up a secret process by which people can get in line before you get in line at the time we told you to sign in. Nice work, MLB!

That wasn't actually the case. I was in the waiting room, but when I was "chosen at 1:58, it told me to come back at 2pm. So I don't think the waiting room actually did anything.

That said, I was able to log-in exactly at 2pm and proceed to neatly buy tickets to all three games. Game 2 certainly seemed to have the most depleted inventory. "Best available" was 340, row 23.

lol yeah. Game two came with my bronze plan... I bought tickets to game two solely to resell to support my tickets to games 1 and 3...Section 310 was best avail for me.

    • THIS. I said it last night in the game thread. This stupid six man rotation and moving starters around like chess pieces messes w/ their routines. You have to get Burnes on turn every 5 days to maximize him and then everyone else is like roulette. After last night, Kremer should just be moved to the pen and go back to a 5 man rotation.
    • Kremer denied both the blister and the extra rest as reasons, as any pitcher normally would. I tend to think both absolutely were a factor regardless of what he said. Would have been a convenient way to keep Irvin in the rotation and get Dean some extra time to get comfortable after getting the blister removed. It's extremely painful to deal with a popped blister and it takes a long time to form a new callous, etc.  Just my opinion, no huge deal either way. 
    • I still read it as “we predicted this before the season but now we’re predicting this”.
    • Yep, the league has already started to pitch Gunnar more carefully (on all ABs not just leadoff) and we are seeing his walk totals go up over last two weeks. In terms of seeing 1 pitch to hit an AB, Gunnar was definitely sitting on 2 strike sweeper from Gray last night that he deposited in CF bleachers.  You just don’t go oppo taco on outside edge breaking ball on one of the best spinners in the league.  Love how Gunnar is hunting certain pitches now.  Thought the same thing given the swings he put on Kirby’s split for HR (Sunday). 
    • If the Orioles really thought Cook was a potential MLB option, I don’t think they would have sent him back to AA when they didn’t have roster space at AAA early in the season. He’s having a very good year though so he could potentially change their view of him.  The other obstacle is he may not get a 40-man spot this off-season despite being rule 5 eligible the first time, there’s a lot of potential additions.  If Norby isn’t traded, he’ll get one of them and Cook’s only advantages over Norby are speed and CF defense, which may not be enough (especially if Mateo is still around). And shortly behind them is Fabian, who is Rule 5 eligible after 2025 and offers those things better than Cook (albeit still with big question marks about his K rate).  I could see Cook threading the needle and get some cup of coffee opportunity between Norby and Fabian if the need arises, but the Orioles have stacked so much bench depth for next couple years there would probably need to be a significant shakeup with trades and/or injuries. 
    • Well I think Szymborski would say those ZIPs numbers are 50th percentile but even the 80th percentile had Gunnar at 148 OPS+ and 6.2 fWAR (link to O’s preseason write up on fangraphs)
    • Is this an attempt at a joke? A troll post? Something else? ... I'm not sure what to do with such a preposterous notion (unless it was stated in jest).
