you couldn't pay me $125.60 to sit in row 15 of section 308.

I cant get over how much people want for these terrible seats. the game and the team means what it means to you whether you are there or not. and you could throw a pretty good party for $251.20.

My hunch (and that's all that it is) is that they held back a relatively small lot of tickets for Game #2. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they are 95% sold out of that game at this stage. Remember that 13-game plan holders got guaranteed access to Game #2 (along with full season plan holders). There are a significant amount of 13-game plan holders. It is not out of the realm of possibility that more than half of the Game #2 tickets were gone prior to yesterday's pre-sale. It sure seemed that way. A lot of sections appeared sold out at the start of the 29-game holder pre-sale and at the start of the 2:00 sale, upper LF reserve seats were coming up as "best available."

In addition, on MASN yesterday they were still promoting putting down a 2015 partial plan deposit to get guaranteed seats for the playoffs, but instead of listing "Game 1 or Game 2", the ad only listed "Game 1". I'd take all of that to mean that if they are not sold out of Game #2, they are very close to it.

I believe game two is done for. Stub hub for that one.

You just convinced me to go to StubHub for game 2. I got into Section 7 for only a 50% markup so I guess that's not horrible.

Good to hear. I like those sections in right field. If they weren't entirely in the sun for the day games (we have the Sunday plan), I'd consider those for my season tickets.

      A dozen more strikeouts last night, and most of the lineup is not hitting well

      By Roy Firestone · Posted

      I read and take in all your comments...Yes, it IS a long season with ups and downs...and Yes, I tend to vent after a loss to a crummy team where we got just 3 hits and stuck out 12 times...but NO ONE has commented on bringing Mayo up. This kid is part of our future...Urias isn't. Ramon's a solid glove man, but he is hitting .196. and you can ignore that if Mullins and Santander and Cowser were hitting...but they aren't..and while Gunnar and Mounty are going to contribute...they are scuffling now too..If we brought up Holiday, and it failed(for now) that doesn't mean Mayo will fail...He's not just a power hitter...he is a patient hitter who doesnt have a ridiculous strikeout or chase ratio...I'll ask again. Tell me what is the problem with bringing Mayo up? How much worse could he be than Urias?

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      I'm kind of torn on this. A lot of slumps happen just because timing is off, nothing mechanical. Sometimes you're hot and sometimes you're cold. It's easily possible that Holliday's feel for hitting just had a slump at the wrong time. That happens. I know a hitting coach who talks about Pujols. When he went into a slump, he'd widen his stance and not even step. He removed all of that movement and basically hit with his hands and ungodly power. It was basically the same 2-strike approach that a lot of hitters employ. For my money, I don't love the huge load and leg kick. I think it really lengthens the swing in an attempt to generate power. When I saw Holliday, his swing looked just like that. Too long to catch up to elite ML pitching. Now maybe it was just a slump, but I'd personally prefer to see less movement, more contact, and progress from contact to power as he gets comfortable in the majors. And I know nothing, but that's my view of things.

      Developing situation with Mountcastle?

      I'd guess it's McKenna down. McKenna is playing the Hays role and Kjerstad does something different, even if it's just the role of... DUMPH (Designated Urias/Mateo Pinch Hitter).

      Kade Strowd 2024

      As much as we'll speculate about the Kopechs and Helsleys of the world, much of the game is the Clubs sifting literally thousands of guys like this finding the right way to turn the dials. Last 12 months, Robert Stephenson's case has been a pretty dramatic one.    Was his labor valuable because of him, or how Tampa's braintrust saw he could excel? It sounds like Strowd hasn't always been a cutter only guy.    I'd guess the Sigbot is also equipping him with "here are the cliches we'd prefer you tell Roch Kubatko" if or when the time comes. The more Felix Bautistas you can make, the better...go Orioles coaches! Here's Strowd tied with Bryan Woo high in the 99th percentile of WHIP among all Minors arms at 10 innings this year. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/minor-league?pos=all&level=0&lg=2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,14,12,13,15,16,17,18,30,32&stats=pit&qual=10&type=1&team=&season=2024&seasonEnd=2024&org=&ind=0&splitTeam=false&players=&sort=13,-1

      They like the homer perhaps a little too much.

      Maybe his last start in Delmarva?
