MLBTV being completely broken for OD is an annual tradition at this point. It's like they spend all winter forgetting people use it.

My audio feeds don't work for MLB either.  And since Verizon removed MASN from me and I'm blacked out for Orioles.... I guess there's always bourbon.

bourbon is good for happy times too

Have you played OOTP 26 yet?

I haven't had time to really dig in yet
the last week before the season is a killer for me

I need a ruling. At what point do I have to abandon a Bay Area-related Joey Bart pun as my username? Last year it felt justifiable, but this year feels like it's pushing it...

I know someone who still uses Joe Crede Clearwater Revival as their handle

Joe Crede! Didn't expect to see that name today

Is "Center Field" by John Foggerty more or less obnoxious on opening day?

I was a terrible outfielder as a kid as my judgment on trajectories was atrocious
4:16
I mostly played second and always hurt myself because I played ultra-aggressively, charging every hard hit ball like a little psycho

Sorry, we accidentally fired all the MLB.TV Tech folks.  We're in the process of giving them their jobs back.

Is run scoring generally lower on opening day compared to regular season averages? You'd think with mostly aces on the mound it would be, but wasn't sure if that actually ends up being true
AvatarDan Szymborski

I believe it is

Dan can we get an off the cuff odds that Ernie is top 2 on the Jays for position player WAR this year?

I dunno, 15%?

Mike Trout's handguard early league MVP candidate.

Is it just me or is the crowd noise really loud in Houston? Sounds like the 2010 World Cup in there

I wish I could watch Trout hit right now

I just can't remember the new park name yet
I keep calling it Daikon Park

I realize batter-vs-hitter splits are dumb.  But Rutschman is 15-24 with 4 HR off Berrios.  Impressive.
Matt Martell
4:19
Might as well be Dunkin Park
AvatarDan Szymborski

There's an article where I was just about to say "screw that" and call it Dovahkiin Park

I just wanted to mention that mlb.tv is also not working for me.

If it's Daikon Park they really out to trade for the O's Kyle bRadish.  bow
