Nope but I have a VPN access so I can watch all the in-market games.

Anyone who has a FireTV I know NordVPN has an app you can download for the firestick and you can spoof your location to watch the Braves. I am sure other sticks like Roku have something similar. I suggest anyone who is a fan of baseball to find someone and get a code so you can also watch out of market games. mlb.tv will even let you watch multiple games at once.

I see Pache is getting DFA’d. Do we kick the tires on him again?

He just can't hit enough to play in the majors.

Anyone have a source for buying single game tickets for home games without having to sell a kidney?

Single-game tickets aren't that terribly expensive compared to other teams.

Where are you trying to sit and how much are you looking to pay? Primary source (Ticketmaster) Braves regular season games have plenty of options at all price points starting from $15. Should be able to get decent seats for under $50.

If you wait you can usually find secondary market tickets even cheaper last minute unless it’s a big weekend game. Season ticket holders are constantly having to unload a few games here and there.

FanGraphs has the Braves opening as the #1 team in its power rankings. First one I've seen to have us at the top. We've pretty consistently been #2 behind the Astros everywhere else I've seen.

MLB.com had the Dodgers 1, Braves 2 and Astros 3. But they are an outlier.

ETA: Fangraphs have the Braves at 92 wins. Low IMO. 95-97 should be their target.

Question about early season game.

What area of the park is a good place to see the game (7:05 start)? Taking my 7 year old grandson during his spring break.

First base side you won’t have the sun in your eyes the first half of the game.

Listening to Kincade's show up.in Philly, all 3 hosts, including John, thinks the Braves rotation is overrated and that the Phillies and Mets both have better rotations.

Yeah, ok. I'll give you the Mets but not Philly.

Really all depends on Strider and if he regresses or progresses. If his changeup becomes a viable 3rd pitch, we’re good. If not and teams start working the count on him more like they did in the latter part of last season, then I can see an argument for Philly having a better rotation with Nola and Wheeler headlining.

See I'm not a big Nola guy. He is not an ace and frankly he's overrated IMO. Wheeler pitched out of his mind last year when he hadn't done that before in his career. Can he do it again?

I think Strider will get that changeup fine-tuned and be fine. I could see him pushing 200 K's this year if all goes right.
