Does anyone know if Baseball is returning to either channel in 2014. Need to know as I will subscribe to MLB.TV if the answer is no. Thanks for any info in advance.
I would have presumed that yes, but so far there have been no pre-season games, which they usually show. What else are they going to fill their schedules with? They have about 5 college basketball games a day at the moment, but that finishes at the end of the month.
Yeah, I have now found out that they plan to have the same level of coverage this season as they did last season from August 1st when BT Sport launched... Good news. first preseason game Monday 17th and first BBT Tuesday 18th. This was meant to of been tweeted sometime ago. I will try to find a TV guide to confirm. Hopefully, good news indeed.
the early spring training games were never shown on NASN or ESPN America either , they usually waited for later games when the leading players were starting to more or less play the full games rather than the couple of innings most do at first
Interesting. I've subbed to mlb.tv anyway, as I only really want to watch NYY games. Not watched more than a few minutes of a pre season game yet though, by the 4th inning I don't know who any of the players are!

almost exactly same as me
I hate it when we get a Yankees game on ESPN and its the other teams feed they using as I like the YES commentators
Yep that's another benefit, imagine 3 hours of listening to that annoying CWS commentator (He gone!, Here come the good guys, etc etc). On Fox games, I usually switch comms to radio, unless there's a big delay, I can't stand Buck and the other guy. Though it is mildly amusing listening to them announce Yankee HR's like someone has died, where a Boston single get greeted like the second coming. Umm, I digress!
out of interest, ESPN is on BT on the Sky Platform, but not Freeview
I sorta-see what you're saying - on DTT you can only get BT Sport 1 and 2. On Sky and Virgin you can get BT Sport 1 and 2 and ESPN plus HD versions of the same.
Interestingly, LocateTV says tonight's game is between Boston Red Sox and Arizona Cardinals!
12 Hours of live Baseball on ESPN from 1800pm on Monday 31st of March. And of course the opening SNB at 0100am Monday 31st. Let the good times roll.:);-):cool::p
been quite a turnaround this spring in how the pineda-montero trade between the Yankees and mariners is looking
everyone thought the Yankees had made a huge mistake trading away Montero when pineda ended up injured and still hasn't started a game for them
this spring tho the experiment to move Montero to first base has failed after he turned up to spring training overweight and hes been put down to the minors. pineda on the other hand has been impressive so far and looks a certainty to have a place in the starting rotation now.
still too soon to take anything for granted but the yanks might still come out on the right side of that trade
are we gonna just continue this thread as the MLB thread for the season or should we start a new one ?
May as well keep this one?
Excited for Saturday already, even though It's not a game I'd normally watch, it's baseball that means something again! And a reasonable time on a weekend too.
wonder how this timing is going to go down with American viewers as its something like a 4am start time on the east coast, 1am in LA.
looking forward to seeing Kershaw , hes been outstanding the last couple of years and hasn't even reached what are usually the best years for a pitcher
solid start to the season by the dodgers, even if the bullpen made things interesting. two pretty good starts from their pitchers , still got greinke to get fully fit as well

If we are to keep this thread, could the mods please add the missing E to the thread title? My inner OCD is itching.
