I just wanted to say thank you for this thread. It helped me out over the weekend when I went to the game and the Stadium lots were full. The Penn St garage was great. Easy in and out and a short walk to the stadium. It was still $15, as someone else had mentioned. I think I will park here from now on whenever I go to games.

Stadium lots are permit only now.  Not sure why that during this season but it’s what they have done.  There is also a lot across from M&T that costs $20 and it’s easy on and off to 95.

I saw that this thread is bumped and wanted to share so If anyone is looking for a good parking lot - you can get the 221 W. Lombard Street garage on the iparkit app for like $15-$19. 

This garage is 2 blocks from the stadium and is normally $40 to park.

It's easy to get in/out of.

I love the Penn St garage, it's my usual spot.

This bring up something that annoys me from the last game I went to.   I parked at the Penn St garage, so I am walking to the stadium from that direction, basically right past Pickles.   I had lower box seats on the 3rd base side.

As I approach the stadium near the Brooks statue with the gold glove, I can see that only the entrance at Eutaw Street, to my far left, is open.   None of the gates along Camden St that are behind left field are open.   So I figure I will walk down the right side of the stadium, and one of the gates on that side will be open, right behind my seats.   But no.   Nothing.   All the way around to home plate.  Still no public entrnace, just a VIP entrance.   Had to go around the back of the stadium onto the south side and start walking down behind the first base line to find an entrance gate letting ticket holders in.

So they really only have 3 gates open for the entire stadium?   The ones at the north and south end of Eutaw St, and the one I wound up going in?   Would it kill them to open one more gate, say by the left field corner, so they would basically have four corners of the stadium that you could enter in, like just about every sporting venue I have ever been to?

You can go online to one of the parking apps that shows the prices for most lots and you can book in advance and sometimes some have discounts.

This is what I do. You can usually find a spot for under $10 and they are not much further than the official lots.

      Do the Orioles Need Players with Postseason Experience?

      They need players who are better than some they have

      Elias on contract extensions

      Probably neither - it may be more a function of lining up with players.  The Astros extensions aren’t really comparable. The first Altuve extension was ridiculously team friendly. Altuve had less than $1MM in career earnings ($15K signing bonus as amateur). He had a good 2012, making the all-star team. However, he struggled in the first half of 2013 with an OPS in the six hundreds.  He fired Boras in May, presumably because he wanted to sign an extension that Boras would have been vehemently opposed to.  The deal announced in July bought out his four remaining years of team control for $12.5MM and gave the Astros control over what would have been his first two FA years via club options that totaled $25MM. The second Altuve extension occurred after he rehired Boras and was basically about buying out his grossly undervalued club option years.  It was needed to reverse the mistake of the first extension. The Bregman extension was reached in ARB-3 negotiations. Neither of these situations are at all comparable to a potential Gunnar extension this offseason. First of all, Boras had NEVER extended a pre-arb player with seven figures in career earnings (Carlos Gonzalez was below that threshold).  He is philosophically opposed to it. Second, there are two potential comps that would starting points for a deal: Tatis Jr and Witt Jr.  Boras would reject either of those deals; he would want to do better given his distaste for pre-arb extensions, his strong preference for “record-breaking” deals, and the fact the Gunnar has more career WAR (at least fWAR) than either of those players when they signed their extensions.  When teams are successful in getting a lot of early extensions done, it’s often a case of having a lot of players amenable to an extension. That generally covers attributes such as not signing a large draft or IFA bonus (i.e., relatively “poor” players), players with geographic ties to the team (big part of Atlanta’s success), not having Boras as their agent, and being more risk-adverse from a financial perspective.  The team’s risk tolerance also plays a role as you can get burned if they turn into Grady Sizemore.

      I think the main reason they’re not big contributors for the Tigers right now is that they were all jettisoned from the team right around the time the Tigers got good. Canha was traded to SFG at the deadline, Urshela was DFA’d on August 15, and Baez shuffled off to season-ending hip surgery on August 22. They were 62-66 when Baez was shut down — they’re 28-11 since.

      Would you say that the Tigers rebuild is more successful than the O's?

      By Ripken · Posted

      Their rebuild has not been better but their players don't melt under pressure.

      Hurricane Milton has apparently ripped the roof of the Tropicana Dome to shreds

      By SteveA · Posted

      So what do the Rays do?   Spend a lot of money fixing the roof for the few remaining years that ballpark has left?   Or do like the A's and play in a minor league facility until their new ballpark is built? I wonder if they could work out something with the Yankees to play in Steinbrenner Field.   It is in Tampa and one of the nicer spring training facilities on the Gulf Coast.   The Rays train in Port Charlotte which is (50???) miles south and I don't think the facility is nearly as good.   Steinbrenner FIeld seats over 10K, has luxury boxes, and a very accessible location for Tampa area fans.
