Those are some nice seats!

I got lucky early on. Prices haven't increased much (thank you Angelos!) since I'm grandfathered into similar prices from back in like 2007 or so. Back in those days, I was able to buy Opening Day tickets like candy. It's amazing. I had 50-60 people giving me money and we'd buy entire rows/sections at times. 

As they started winning, they restricted it to something like 4 tickets per seat for Opening Day re: extra purchases. Then down to 2 tickets per seat. Now I believe it's 1 to 1.

Makes sense, as resale value for tix has gone up

Well, you’ll be back to 10 to 1 soon.     I’m sure season ticket sales are way down.

I just like baseball.

Would it suck if the Orioles went 0-162? Yes. It's always better to see a winner, but I like baseball a whole lot and really only care that it is back.

How did we look going into the 1989 season?

Like no team in the AL East won 90 games the year before.  (or 1989 either)

The good old days of the American league Least and American league Best.

This is what I'm curious about. Why the interest in Hays and Sisco, but not Cortes and Mesa?

Rule 5 picks, man.   Rule 5 picks.

9. Least excited I've ever been for the season to start. Been to every opening day since 2005. Don't think I'll make the trip this year.

Ok. Now it's 8.

That's what it's come down to.  The O's are the first team in ML history where the most interesting acquisitions are Rule 5 players.  Scary part... I think I'm ok with that - at least if the alternative is over-paid 30 plus year olds on multi year deals.

I’m so apathetic I have yet to renew my MLB.tv subscription. 

If Cortes and Mesa are in the rotation I’ll go monthly. If they sign Vargas or Cashner I’ll sit it out.

I don't know dude, I like our guys...

You should still renew MLB.tv. How can you not!? 24/7 you get to see Clayton Kershaw throwing a fastball five-thousand-miles-per-hour down the plate while Paul Goldschmidt swings and knocks the ball thirty-to-fourty-thousand feet over the gosh-dang wall!

I’ll think about it. And Kershaw tops out at 93 these days, granted his command is pretty good. ?

I have had MLB.TV for five years...but not renewing  this year...not worth it to me anymore.

Just curious, why not?  I'm planning on cutting the cord and getting a VPN to watch Orioles games.  Is MLB.TV not good quality or what?
