I've seen the park in Pittsburgh but not been to a game. Looks very nice. Really enjoy Kansas City's ballpark, Kaufmann. Waterfalls, natural turf after they re-did it, laid out like the parks in Frederick and Bowie where you can get concessions but still be in the stadium area and able to watch the game. And easy access right of I-70 (now that I think about it, easy access from B-more, just 1,078 miles and 17 plus hours away, per Mapquest).

On a serious note, I really want to see the new Nationals park, and I want to go to Houston, San Francisco, Seattle, Detriot, Cleveland, Wrigley, both Pennsylvania parks, Fenway, The Stadium, TGABP, Milwaukee... eh, screw it. I'd pretty much like to go everywhere, but the west coast stadiums seem really nice.

My vote goes to PNC. If you can stand in line to get your food and still see the game thenn it already goes to the top of my list. The fact that it has the best view in all of baseball makes it far and away the best. Include Primantti brothers and its not even fair.

I just went there it was really nice, but it was really small and the crickets were louder than the fans:laughlol:

My list looks like this:

1) Camden Yards - I was the biggest Memorial Stadium lover you could imagine, but this place won me over by the first time my butt landed in a seat

2) Yankee Stadium - Vibes, history, etc...

3) Pac Bell - Where the Giants play. Whatever it's called now. McCovey's cove is A-ok.

4) Skydome - Again, whatever it's called now. Home of the Blue Jays. Got to go on the field in 2000 and see the Orioles in the dome, open air, and roof closed mid-game. Nice view of the CN Tower.

5) Shea Stadium - Gets a bad rap, but I really like it.

6) Turner Field - Best peanuts in baseball outside the park, and nice enough overall. Didn't blow me away by any means.

7) Rangers park, whatever they're calling it now. Struck me as tacky and trying too hard.

    • Hopefully the O's took notes on the Red Sox exposing Trevino on Sunday night. Anyone not named McCann, Rutschman, and O'hearn - if you get on base, just run. 
    • I just read a take on his changeup that loved it - thought it might help him be a "reverse splits" kind of RH middle reliever. Right now the Orioles have a bunch of lefties though should Coulombe end up okay.
    • BP profiled him today: Brandon Young, RHP, Baltimore Orioles Listed Height: 6-foot-6 Listed Weight: 210 pounds DOB (Age): August 19, 1998 (25) Pitch Velo Spin IVB HB Total % Whiff% 4-Seam Fastball 93.5 2124 18.0 -4.8 131 48.7 31.8 Changeup 85.5 1730 9.8 -13.3 64 23.8 22.9 Curveball 75.7 2723 -14.4 11.5 34 12.6 40.0 Slider 85.4 2048 5.4 5.5 26 9.7 12.5 Sweeper 79.5 2084 1.7 11.5 14 5.2 11.1 Injuries limited Young to just 53 1/3 innings between 2022 and 2023. Upon return to action last year, he flashed increased velocity. That velocity bump has carried over to 2024. Now, Young’s fastball has borderline-average velocity (previously below-average) but above-average carry and extension (6.6 feet). It is further aided by strong command. After his fastball, which is by no means a world beater, Young has a smattering of average secondaries. He primarily relies on a changeup–really his only secondary with above-average potential–that has solid velocity (8 mph), vertical movement (8+ inches), and horizontal movement (8+ inches) separation from his fastball. Both his breaking balls either lack enough power (curveball) or depth (slider/cutter) to be viable putaway pitches at the MLB level. His seldomly-used sweeper has potential, but it has had little success so far. Young adds to the depth of the deepest system in baseball, yet he very well may just be that–depth–likely without an above-average offering. Of course, he could become a viable fantasy arm even with mediocre stuff due to his command and control. 
    • You would theoretically make more money over time by best serving your employers.
    • They announced his rehab was over and that he would be back in AAA.
    • If I sell someone a house, I don’t advise them to buy the most expensive house because that means more money for me. I get to know the client, understand what’s important for them and advise them based off of that. That’s how you should always handle a job like that imo. Your wallet should not be part of the equation.
