I think this is the year I’m back. I haven’t subscribed to anything that helped me watch games in two years. I’ve been in a doctoral program that finishes up in May, and they’ve just been uninteresting. Even the games I could watch were against the pirates with pirates broadcasters. Brutal. But maybe I’ll have more time, and maybe they’ll be watchable. We’ll see. Some interesting story lines anyway. Bellinger will never be an mvp caliber player again, but what if he returns to a 110 ops+? What if Nico takes another step forward? Will the young pitching really be a strength? Will one of Wisdom, Morel, or Madrigal take the job at third? Is David Bote still alive and who killed him? Their hope, mystery, and intrigue. Or meh. Hey, I'm willing to subscribe to something...MLB.tv...a Marquee streaming service. But what I'm not willing to do is pay a bunch of money for a live tv streaming service. I'm over paying for my tv in big groups of channels I don't watch. And since the Cubs are blacked out for me on MLB.tv (unless that's changed) and Marquee doesn't offer a streaming service that I can pay for, I'm out of luck.
