MLB preseason is pretty stupid now. They basically report and start playing games like 2 days later and then play games all the way up until it starts. And the last week is stupid outside making sure guys are warmed up and ready.

They should make the preseason shorter, but not start the games so early. More practice prior, then less games, and make the cuts later.

It's for pitchers everyone knows that

Tony Watson to the Angels. Why did we not bring him back?

Do any of you guys not have cable? I just moved a couple months ago and havent gotten cable. I am starting to get used to not having it. I guess I can find streams, but was wondering if there were any of you guys who didnt have cable and had some tips on how to watch Giants games in a legit fashion.

Just saw someone wearing a Giants shirt that said "hella homeruns"

Dude should be embarrassed. We dont hit "hella" homeruns.

2015: T-26th (with 2 other teams)
2016: 29th
2017: 30th
2018: 29th
2019: 26th

Hella homeruns. LOL. Cant wait to have a team that rakes again one day.

do you have an apple tv? You can just order it from them and watch the games on that.

I dont, but am willing to look into anything. Thanks RN.

I still have cable basically only for NFL Sunday Ticket, but I don't live in CA so I subscribe to MLB.tv. There is a single-team option that is a lot cheaper than the full package. I forget the total price, because I get a discount every year, but it should be under $100. But, if you're in the local area of the Giants you won't be able to watch the games live. You have to wait like 60-90 minutes after the game ends to be able to watch. I'm in the Phoenix area, and every time the Giants play the D'Backs I have to wait to watch. Even when they play them in SF.

You can download the app on any smart tv nowadays or Roku, Firestick etc. Or Apple tv like they already said

I use the single game package and there is a MIL discount for you. I used to do it on the MLB tv app, but it got removed from my smart tv and I switched to apple years ago. I prefer to do it on the Apple TV app because it works on the tv great, and also the phone/ipad. It won't work if you are in the local area for another team when they play. I can't watch the nats giants games on apple tv when they are in DC. I watch them on the local channel for those 3-4 games.

I havent tried it on the firestick, but if it works there, firestick is much cheaper than an apple tv. And works great also. So either would be fine.

Thanks for the replies gents. I am in the Bay Area so it makes things a little more complicated. I'll figure it out.

1 more day!
