Random observations:

That’s a stacked first half on the home schedule and weak 2nd half. Red Sox, Yankees and dodgers at home all before May 6.

one Thursday game between June 11 and August 20.

getting frequent flier miles to Ohio in late April/early May: 3 game road trip to Cleveland Apr 20-22. 3 game road trip to Cincinnati May 8-10 (and inevitably one of those will get snowed or rained out necessitating a return trip on one of those Thursday off days). 

how do we keep drawing the long straw to get opening day and Father’s Day at home?

That sucks for me as a season ticket holder. You want Yankees, Red Sox and Dodgers on the weekend and during the summer time for maximum re-sale value.  It really helps if you can sell those tickets for 3X and playoffs for 4 or 5X then it becomes much more manageable to be a season ticket holder. Alas. 

That being said- I don't think I've sold but 1 game this year- mostly given them away. But it's nice to have the option.

Better than Chicago. Or Minnesota 

I wasn’t being sarcastic. I can’t wait to hit up one of those games.

Ha, tried to look at a DirectTV streaming subscription. The website is so confusing and misleading, you literally can't figure out what your bill will be in the future.  It's a total bait and switch.  Undeterred, I decide to call them.  20 minutes and three callbacks later, after clicking through a maze of voice menus that didn't work properly, I was UNABLE TO REACH SALES!  I'll say that again. They are so fucked up they can't even take a call from someone who wants to buy their service.  Fuck that. I've dealt with that bullshit from AT&T for years.  I ain't doing it anymore. 

Then looked at Fubu.  Pretty good channel coverage. Don't like the lack of two local channels.  Maybe could live with it.  The lack of Food Network for the wife is tough. Maybe.

I thought about the DNS hiding approach with MLB, but I just don't want to deal with that hassle all the time.

Maybe someday the Astros will pull their heads out of their asses and make their games available to more people, like the Rangers have done this year.

You have to go to the Bronx or Staten Island for that.

If there weren't any people there I could handle it...and 7 days of badass food!

Wait...we need people for the food.  Ok, select individuals can stay.

If Yordan is not in the lineup tonight, innocent people are going to get hurt.

Hopefully they have their own doctors.
