Roku, AppleTV or Chromecast?

I'd use it for HBOGO, Netflix and MLB.tv primarily.
Gonna look for something refurbished since I don't wanna pay an exorbitant amount of money. My girlfriend has an Apple TV which seems fine but they're pretty expensive.
Chromecast is the cheapest but it doesn't look like they have an MLB TV app.
Your input is appreciated

I like my Apple TV. Has all that you're looking for, and made sense for me personally since I own several other Apple products.
Saw a used one on Amazon for $70.

I've got Apple TV and Roku. Apple is easier to use and find content. Streaming from apple devices makes it even better.

Roku 3 is awesome. I love it.

Just found out that Roku makes a "streaming stick" now. I think I might go with that one. Half the price of the regular Roku and AppleTV with the same apps.

I'd go with the streaming stick or chromecast

I was trying to make this exact decision about a month ago. I went with the Roku 3 and love it.

I'm sure you can't go wrong with any of them.

do you have an ipad or iphone? if so, apple tv is the way to go.

100 $ is expensive?

Have AppleTV - love it! Netflix is amazing on it, compared with my old Wii format. Only downside is can't get Amazon with it. Thus old Wii still valued, too.

You can stream amazon from your iPad or iPhone now. I think this just became possible in the last few months

No joke, if your sweating spending 100 vs. 50, there is a problem

I use atv and chromecast.. I seem to gravitate to the chromecast more often... I'm a Google /Android guy though
Eta: I also have a pc hooked up directly to my TV and I use a slingbox and other streaming stuff directly from browser.
