I don’t have Apple TV, and I’m not going to get it to watch a handful of Oriole games.  I’m sure my wife won’t mind doing something else on a Friday night.   

It's pretty cheap, I think I'll probably get it for the three games. 

Baseball's a drug.

Apple One includes Apple News, Apple Music and 2TB of iCloud storage along with Apple TV.  If you're a news junkie as well as a baseball junkie (like I am), it's a huge value.

I am whatever the opposite of a news junkie is 🤣

I definitely appreciated Apple TV last year whenever they sprung one on us. The visual broadcast was outstanding. The play by play was extraordinarily MEH.

Fair enough.  IIRC you're an avid golfer?  Included are subscriptions to roughly a half-dozen golf magazines and that extends to numerous other areas of interest as well.  The abundance of magazine subscriptions alone are worth the cost

When I lived in that area, I had HTS. You at least have the option of having MASN don’t you?

And I don’t see how you are getting to the stadium in about an hour unless your + is closer to 30-45 minutes 😆

I have 3 sons.  My money is spent on food, not cable!  Yes, MASN is a cable option.  Not a streaming option.

You're right, it's closer to 1.5 hours to the stadium.  Full disclosure, the GPS sets the time to beat!

I used to be before we had kids!!!!!! 

Oh, how I miss it.

Hello, fellow resident of the Eastern North America mega city.   

Pittsburgh is inland but everything up 83 and east is the coast.    I guess that throws Amish country in with us!

Pitt is the real outlier IMO.  My guess it has to do with legacy Steeler fans.  And yes, 83/Susquehanna River is a good demarcation. East is Philly fans, west is Pirates.  South of York it's about 40-50% O's fans (at least in my circle).

And that I suspect is exactly what they want and budget for.  I'll also bet you haven't cancelled!!

As innocous as it may seem memberships are as if not more important than margins to Costco and Amazon.  Amazon brings in $35b in membership fees alone.  When they raised membership fees in '22 their profit almost doubled. 

I had already cancelled when I realized that I could still see those events noted.  But even when you cancel, you can start back up any day if you are interested in a special event.  So you don’t lose anything by canceling.

I have that. Happy with it.

    • In the eye-catching stats department, how about Palacios's line so far: 24 strikeouts / 3 hits allowed (in 14.2 innings). Eight walks also, but still a 0.75 WHIP.
    • But wait, there’s more. NIL is coming to high schools too. It is insane!
    • PS I think I probably was one of the ones who voted for a drop into the high 90s, but I definitely predicted, and expect a division title. I don’t care if we do it with only 90 wins. I wanna win the division.
    • I can’t tell another person what their standard should be for being disappointed.  It’s subjective.  I’ll just say I think that’s really unreasonable.  I also think your opinion that the O’s have lost a lot of games by bad bullpen management is wrong.  But go ahead, drive yourself nuts thinking the bullpen would never lose a game if only they were managed properly.   
    • Yes, I am aware that this is basically just a repeat of the other days chat. it’s quite possible. This post was inspired by that chat. But the point remains valid. I can only say what I’ve already said it’s still how I feel. If the bullpen management doesn’t improve, I don’t think it will be a three game gap, but if we lose the division 108-105, I will be very disappointed. And it seems that a lot of people feel the same way.  
    • Logan Webb is pretty much where my list starts and ends. 4+ wins 3 years in a row, including 5 wins last year, on pace for a career year this year, and under contract at a reasonable price for 4 more years.  That would be a near perfect comp for the Chris Sale white sox trade.   I'm only entertaining deals for a pitcher, because we still have a position player backlog, and if we end up trading all our position player depth, we can much more reliably go after someone in FA.  Soto would hit the warehouse if he signed here, and we can actually dream about that with Rubenstein as the owner.
    • This is just a repeat of the discussion the other day.  We don’t control what the Yankees do, except when we play them.  The O’s are on pace to win 106 games.  There’s no way I’d be disappointed in them if they did that, no matter what the Yankees did.  Only 6% of our posters thought the O’s would exceed 101 wins this year; 85% expected a drop to 97 wins or lower.
