MLB 2025

I really wish they would DO AWAY with them.

I try to watch 3 of my out of market teams games ...
When they are playing a team from my local area, Detroit, Cleveland or Cincinnati ... Cincy is 3 hrs away, Cleveland is 2.5 hrs away, Detroit is 1 hr away.

I cannot watch Those games, even though I have purchased the package to watch my Out Of Market teams.

If I wanted to watch those game ... I would have to pay an addl. $45 each month.
$99 for the Indians and The Tigers and Reds EACH per year ... $99 yearly, $15 p/m
It's essentially me paying the RSN FEE .
Of course, I'll miss those series for my OOM teams, so I am missing at minimum 9 games

This makes the OOM price, actually pretty good at $149 for everyone (except those RSN local games)

I really can't believe they want $99 per team for a year.

In order to get the RSN games, those are on Fan Duel Sports Networks now, the old Bally Sports and various others prior to.

No word as to Who is making them .... Is it a typical bat company, say Louisville or one of the other well known manufactures ?
Or is it some company trying to make a name for themselves ?

Are they approved by MLB ?

This is the first I've heard of them.

So, it sounds like a company decided to re invent the baseball bat, so that more wood was available in the sweet spot, this is just OK for who ever to pick one up at the local baseball shop ????

There must not be any regulations ...
Whats next ... re build thier own baseballs for the Home Team ?

Baseball glove that are Sticky, to help in those crucial situations ????

Bring back the Corked Bats .... your doing the same thing with allowing these redesigned bats.

I don't like this idea ....

Manford is probably All for it.


Fwiw, I prefer to see a good hard fought game, say 3-2 ....
I don't like the 10-8 games.

They could be taking the Pitcher out of the game if this is the norm.

WTH, lets just have the pitching machine throw the game.
