MLB.TV is pissing me off - I specifically got it to watch Rays games while living in NC but now opening day is blacked out?

It's airing on The MLB Network.

The Price is not right.

Guess we'll see if that 4 week rest helps, but it's the beginning of the season and he's just getting going.. I can't see how it'll help much more than the offseason wouldn't have.

It's likely that surgery is inevitable at this point. Maybe not for another year or two though if we're lucky.

 

[McNei1y]

Wieters bomb

 

[BaltimoreLarry]

Orioles!!!!!!!!

I think its pretty apparent from this half inning that last year was not a fluke.

 

[RumblingRosco]

O's whoppin' dat ass.

 

[darkside31337]

Meh Rays will be fine.

162-0 is still in hand.

 

[Dominican Power]

Like The O's pitching isn't suspect. smh

 

[Prodigal]

It's airing on The MLB Network.

No it's not, it's showing some Yankees retrospective crap

Wow, I didn't realize how many games MLB Network was airing this year. About two Cardinal games a week, at least in April. MLB.TV is becoming less worth it.

Schedule shows it's on MLB Net.

Yea, if it's blacked out on MLB.TV, it's probably blacked out on MLB Network.

It shows the Orioles subject to blackout but not the Rays. So just because the Rays are playing the Orioles = blackout?

 

[McNei1y]

Living in NC, I assume so. I guess it assumes that you have MASN.

 

[Windu]

Yes. They want you to watch it on TV. MASN.

Sounds really shitty and therefore probably 100% accurate.

Right.

Yes.

They're airing like 150 games. They're airing the Giants/Dodgers game tonight too.

MLB's blackout rules really are the worst.

 

[Sanjuro]

Thanks to the new adverts, I can't tell if the film "42" is about Jackie Robinson or a rapper.

 

[McNei1y]

MLB's blackout rules really are the worst.

They really are the stupidest thing.

 

[dubc35]

MLB's blackout rules really are the worst.

Seriously, we need someone in international-GAF to setup a high speed connection we can all proxy to.

 

[newjeruse]

They really are the stupidest thing.

With the huge amount of money that will be coming into the game via local cabel RSN's, it's not going to change anytime soon. Only thing that will change are the FOX regional blackouts on Saturday.

 

[McNei1y]

Remember this moment everyone: Brian Roberts is playing baseball.

 

[Lazy Man's Wallpaper]

I think the Yankees cap looks great, but I would never wear one.

Maybe one day...

Yeah, there are teams I would never wear (NYY, NYM, BOS, PHI, LAD, PIT, STL come to mind immediately) but pretty much anyone else is cool with me.

 

[Thaedolus]

I'm so sick of King Felix ruining my opening day hype. Fuck MLB for always scheduling A's/Mariners to start.

I declare Game 2 to be the real opener. Plaaaaay baaallllll!

 

[disillusion386]

First time posting in MLB-GAF.

MLB blackout rules do suck, but I'm on mlb.tv right now, and the Os/Rays game is the free game of the day. I'm in DC, and I can stream it no problem. Guess I'm not sure how it works in NC.

 

[McNei1y]

Oh wow the Rays got out of it.

 

[Chuck]

Fuck Chris Davis.

Let's go O's!

 

[weekend_warrior]

Price needed that.

 

[darkside31337]

That Wieters AB was amazing.

Rays still got this.

 

[Dominican Power]

Jennings mad.

 

[McNei1y]

hahahah Adam Jones rapping to that walk up song.

 

[Chuck]

Don't forget the IRC guys.

[Enron]

Fuck off 2 teamer

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Fantasy baseball is a ton of fun. Tooth pain however is not.

 

[Dominican Power]

Longo with the web gem.

 

[McNei1y]

How come CJ Wilson and Josh Hamilton aren't wearing hats during the game? That's not legal.

 

[jakncoke]

your face

Bad things are going to happen to all your teams whomever they may be right now!

How could you even tell if he was a Pirates fan?

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Having Brian Roberts will be big for the Os. Finally healthy, hopefully gets thru a full season.

As a big B-Rob fan, I highly doubt he'll get more than 40 games in.

 

[Dominican Power]

LONGORIA!!!!

 

[newjeruse]

Amazing display by Longoria.

 

[Fox318]

Yankess have the best DL team.

[BFIB]
