I would be fine going to a game once vaxxed up and it was limited seating.

I think the Mariners are the only team that hasn't announced seating plans yet, which sounds like is more based on King County / City of Seattle stuff.

I don't think I've seen anything from the twins yet either

Y'know, it's been said that the Braves have the worst TV deal in baseball but I didn't really realize how bad it is until today.

So, if I want to watch Braves games at home here are my options

Cable (no)
AT&T TV Streaming (its $86 a month so also no)
MLB.tv with VPN
Reddit or wherever streams

So I have two lovely choices or just straight up steal it. For a team with such a huge fanbase I can't believe they have such a dumbass deal.

The problem is that the majority of their games are on Fox Sports regional stations and all of Hulu, TYTV, Sling, etc dropped them from their lineup.

same with the Twins, it sucks

anyway, here's something fun

i just saw this, the previous pitch he hit a mile the opposite way and he was convinced it rang off the foul pole (it didn't)

so, he was probably pretty pissed off so just lined one out of the park the other direction

Surgery can still be scary and weird complications still happen, albeit rarely, on the most routine stuff so I will never fault a guy for trying to rehab normally first.
