yea as long as they aren't blacked out. If you don't live anywhere near your team it shouldn't be a problem,

ETA: Seeing as your in baton rouge, i don't see it being a problem.

If you are a Stros fan you could have a problem with some blackouts.

I wouldn't get the service though. You will be able to watch almost every game for free through justin.tv or ustream.tv

ETA: And the Rangers are in Baton Rouge's blackout range. Crazy I know... but true

I had this a couple years ago. I'm in MA and aside from Red Sox being available, random games would be blacked out from viewing on there.

Think they archived the games later though and you could watch short versions of the games as well (outs or runs scored).

My son purchases it every year and he loves it. I don't get WGN and being a Cubbies fan I hardly ever get to watch my team play unless they play the Reds or the occasional ESPN or FOX airing. I am also a Red Sox fan when it comes to the AL and the same goes for those unless they are playing the Indians. So the baseball package if I could afford it would be my choice for sure.

Yes, I've been doing it the last 3 years. Worth every penny if you follow an out-of-state team.

MLB has always been at the forefront of the major leagues as far as web offerings go.

Shoot, I was streaming MLB games on my laptop as far back as 2004. It's definitely worth it.

Worth it! I have had it now for 4 years! As an Angels fan in San Fran the only problems I have are A's games and those are normally on TV or I am at the games.

The premium this year looks BAD arse!!! DVR technology!!! What!!!!!!

I've had the regular and premium MLB.TV before I ordered the MLB package on Cox but the fact you can log on from anywhere to catch a game is great.

Again, I am pretty sure that every game you can watch on MLB TV will be on Justin.tv for free. Although, I have had MLB tv in the past and loved it.

While this is 99.9% true, the quality on MLB.tv is much better and if you get the premium you will have DVR type controls.
