burn it down, send strahm to triple A to see if he can be a starter

royals bullpen has given up more runs in 2 games than wade davis has given up in 3 years

RE- charlie morton. people seem to be pretty high on him this year he added some velocity

i wouldn't care if they traded duffy. great contract extension maybe ~75 million in surplus value. can maybe get a top 25 prospect bat+some others

Another good example. There's no doubt that Hendricks is much better than Lackey.

he was on lebatard yesterday and Azaria says that it gets stronger as it goes. Dan saw the first four episodes and said they were wonderful and smart and poignant, Hank said that he hasn't seen the best of it yet. Season 2 is written and he should know in the next day or two if s2 has been picked up or not.

Missed two stolen base leaders and the other 7 were strikeout leaders. Was surprised at how low many of the walk leaders were. Orioles stolen base leader was 4.

I spoke "Washington Nationals" into my remote hoping it would tune me in for the Eaton and Bro at bats, instead this happened.


Good to know how many total team hits a club has during the 2017-2018 season!

Do you buy your first seats in app on the day as well? Or buy them in advance, turn up and wait for the good ones?

can you buy tickets from stubhub then upgrade?

just wondering for when the cubs stink again in 20 years
MLB Season Thread 2017 Quote

The only thing is you have to be in the ballpark because the upgrades don't give gate access. Doesn't matter how you get in.

I don't understand the Twins lineup at all. How can you justify Buxton/Mauer 3/4? Seems like a lot of wanting for Buxton to suddenly just become the guy he was supposed to be.

Mlb ballpark app upgrades....

You have to have a ticket to get you in the stadium. Can come from the box office, Stubhub, a scalper, whatever. Just something to get you in the door.

Once you do your upgrade though the app, that will now become your ticket to show the user to give you access to wherever you upgraded to.

You don't have to be in the park to do the upgrade. I've done it on the drive to stadium at least a dozen times, and I've done upgrades at parks all over the country from my couch, just to see how it worked for different parks(I canceled out before actually making the purchase).

My advice, if you know you're wanting to do upgrades well in advance, experiment with it on a day you're not going, just to get familiar with the app. Being quick helps, as often the best upgrades are gone with minutes of them becoming available. This becomes even more noticeable as more people find out about it.
