I still get it on MLB.tv
So apparently this is the exact opposite of MLB’s usual broadcasting tendencies
Really?
Don’t you have to pay your cable subscriber?
I thought all spring training games were available on MLB.TV? No?

Not sure exactly how it works
but YES is the only network that has in-market games available on MTB.tv
that said, you are right all spring training games are available so my original post was useless and un-helpful :-)
has anyone upgraded to Firefox 4? Does it try to redirect to facebook when you open BYB?

I'm using FF4 and not having that problem.

it is merely obnoxious. it pops open another tab and asks me to "like" a bunch of sites
"This is the Motor City. And this is what we do."
what are you gonna do on Thursday?
start coughing now and complaining of stomach pains?

Hey, I asked for the day off work
I have two classes on Thursday, but the last one ends at 11:15. Besides, that’ll give me the opportunity to parade my Justin Verlander jersey.

Sounds like a plan
I took off Thursday, even though I usually work nights on Thursday. I’ll need the time to bask in victory. I took off Saturday, as well, and am going to the game.

I asked for Sunday off because I figured I couldn't get away with asking off Thursday and the entire weekend and Sunday shifts are more boring (plus I like watching Scherzer better than watching Penny)
However, they didn’t schedule me for Saturday so I guess I’ll be watching all weekend.

I have taken 1/2 day and convinced half of my co-workers to join me at the bar!
"This is the Motor City. And this is what we do."
Good idea.
It’s my last day before spring break so i’ll be watching baseball for the next week. I won’t be here thursday, but i’ll be following it somehow.
My thoughts may be a little biased. Sorry.
I had food poisoning during an entire series against the Twins last year
That sucked

speaking of which
I need lunch

I bought it
I hook my laptop up to my TV and use my TV like a monitor. I just need to find a longer HDMI cable so I don’t have to sit 5 feet away from the screen.
How's the picture quality?
Rooting for Tiger stripes, not pinstripes
by JerseyTigerFan on Mar 29, 2011 1:32 PM EDT up reply actions
If my wireless connection is cooperating
It’s nearly HD quality on a 32" screen. I haven’t really done too much yet though, so we’ll see how it goes over the course of the season.
That sounds like a good idea.
I wouldn’t be able to afford the mlb.tv, so i’m gonna look for the stream on some web sites
My thoughts may be a little biased. Sorry.
I know it's hard to tell with spring training, but it seems like the offense has been slightly underwhelming

like rain?
or with the feed?

I wonder which we've given up more of this spring
Grand slams or bases-loaded walks

Wait, so what he's saying is "You can get A-Rod out easily but you got no chance with Cano?"

i guess that could've been worse
and the Yankees have stranded 5 so far

BB's spring avg up to .343 now
Move over guys, can’t keep a hot Bascher on the bench!
I don't care what the Chinese say, 2011 is the Year of the Tiger!
that looks more like the Rick I want (need) to see
"This is the Motor City. And this is what we do."
Just To Correct The Record
Over the last five season Cabrera has averaged 159 games a season and Pujoils 154.
On top of that Cabrera has had this disease for more more than the last five seasons.
So there comment about Cabrera being a risky top selection in the fantasy draft was stupid.
Where did they get that picture of Phil Coke from?
It looks ancient, like they took one of his Yankees mugshots and Photoshopped a Tigers hat on him.
Doña of the fractured Venezuelan Mafia
Haunted by the ghosts of Tigers past
i can't see the image but you'll notice how quickly the MLB mugshot gets updated after a trade
almost instantly
"This is the Motor City. And this is what we do."
Well, in this picture he was clean shaven, which is what made me think it was originally a Yankees mugshot
He’s had facial hair the entire time he’s been with the Tigers

same here
looks like a good game so far. I’m hoping for a little better luck on ESPN this year
Founder, President and CEO of the Ryan Raburn Fan Club
Porcello Has Looked A Little Eractic in His Control
Good to start.
One really bad inning
Good since.
You think Villarreal might pitch today?
I’m hoping he does. For a guy that I’ve found so interesting, I still haven’t seen him pitch.

I've gotten used to Inge batting in front of Avila
I keep getting confused.
Doña of the fractured Venezuelan Mafia
Haunted by the ghosts of Tigers past
I Didn't Know This
Looking at Inge’s career situational stats he has been the most productive as a leadoff hitter.
He had quite a good half season leading off for Tram in 2005.
Twice, he’s had half a season with a .290 avg, first half 05 and second half 06.
I don't care what the Chinese say, 2011 is the Year of the Tiger!
Don't hurt yourself Brandon
Doña of the fractured Venezuelan Mafia

Porcello gave up 2 singles and 2 BB's to walk in a run
but otherwise shut down the Yanks.
I don't care what the Chinese say, 2011 is the Year of the Tiger!
Fu-Ta-Na!

Show the dam game, ESPN!
and get Girardi off my TV.
I don't care what the Chinese say, 2011 is the Year of the Tiger!
Didn't they use a split screen with everyone else?
Why are we looking at three Yankees sitting on folding chairs?

Question
Are Mario and Rod still doing the TV thing for the Tigers?
Yep

Wow, that was one of the worst mispronunciations of Fu Te Ni's name I've ever heard

Where's our sappy tribute?
Doña of the fractured Venezuelan Mafia

It just seemed really random
It was like a drive-by Yankees tribute. It came out of nowhere.

Magglioooooo!
smokes one up the middle. If I had to pick one player that is key to the Tigers’ success this year, I think Maggs is probably the guy. That’s counting Cabrera as a given stud.

Cabrera On This Last AB
Looked like he was thinking about something else, like maybe Thursday,
It looks like "Fu-Ta-Na" is going for another inning.
Doña of the fractured Venezuelan Mafia
Haunted by the ghosts of Tigers past
He Looks Sharp
This new pitch of his.
Can anyone spell it?
Hopefully He Pitches Well Enough This Season
to spend the full season with the Tigers.
He's already starting off in the minors
I don't care what the Chinese say, 2011 is the Year of the Tiger!
You never know
Someone might fall off the stairs of the bus and sprain an ankle or something

Could happen if Brad Thomas got injured before the season started.
Not likely, but one can hope! (JK)

I guess we aren't gonna get Villarreal
We’re gonna get Guy I Never Heard Of

Their minor leaguer hits one out off our minor leaguer.
