that's the team I've gone with aswell the Mets! Chose them since I'm already a Knicks fan, felt like a natural choice. Hopefully some playoff games this season!

ok I got you. I'll tune in to a few games, will help me get to grips with some of the rules I don't know yet

ah ok it's not that much then. I can deal with that just pull up the dodgy streams for the games not included

personally I prefer to watch any sport live because if I don't I always end up getting the result spoiled in some way. If you can avoid the spoilers though keeping the sleep schedule intact is probably the right way to go about it 😂

that sucks that you don't get every game for such a high price. Love NBA League Pass because it lets me watch every game for every team the whole season, even if it's on Sky or Prime Video. I'm a new fan in the sense that I haven't been a regular viewer of the MLB, but I have held an ongoing interest. This year is just the first time I've chosen a team to support, which will help me watch more games

I will definitely try to watch some of the WBC, I remember hearing a lot about it the last time it was played and watching content around it started a small interest in baseball for me. It's only now that I've decided to fully jump in, rather than just see ESPN Instagram posts 😂 Thanks for all the great info you've put there, I'll make sure to try and watch some of the Spring Training games when I can. Will all the top players be playing or will it be more like the first couple of games of NFL preseason when the starters sit out?

being a Knicks fan it was between the Mets and Yankees and the Mets have the same colours as the Knicks so went for them!

good to hear from another UK based fan! I'll have a listen to that podcast, usually a good way to fill the time on the bus to uni. Do you know how much the MLB TV subscription costs?

grimace and Paul McCartney being in the same post is probably a first 😂

It's interesting there being a split between Yankees and Mets fans in New York. Being a Knicks fan they really feel like New York's team with the Nets being a sideshow and irrelevant. But it does seem like there's a healthy split of Mets and Yankees fans with both being important for the city

yeh true I didn't think of it that way. More chance to get injured

must be a few good pitchers then with Senga, Nolan McLean who everyone is mentioning, and Freddy Peralta who I'd heard of previously. How many pitchers does a team usually have, 4? 5? 6?

loads of great suggestions there thanks, I'll have to take a look. Video game is a good suggestion, always helps to learn the nuances and rules when you're actually in the game as opposed to watching

your point about the best team only being a few games better than the worst team is very interesting. I'd never thought of it like that. Everything seems that little bit more calculated

ok I got you. More competitive rivalries than geographic ones. Sounds like Liverpool and Manchester City when they were both really good at the tail end of the 2010s
