sacredheart Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I used a student email last year to get the whole package for 84.99. Not sure what the student pricing will be this year yet, but it really is worth it. It works in the offseason so I have been enjoying baseball all year round.

llamaface Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I used a student email last year to get the whole package for 84.99. Not sure what the student pricing will be this year yet, but it really is worth it. It works in the offseason so I have been enjoying baseball all year round. I emailed asking about the veteran/student discount and was told that it is not being offered at this time and that it may or may not be offered this year. Sounds like it won't, unfortunately... That discount was great! I usually just let it renew in March, but maybe I'll cancel and wait until the first couple weeks of the season to see if the discount pops back up. Here's the email: "Dear Valued Fan, In previous years we have offered discounts to students and veterans. Such discounts are not currently available. MLB.com may or may not offer such discounts for the upcoming season. Any updates regarding available discounts will be posted to our website, so be sure to keep checking back there!

I emailed them that I had a student email and they just gave me a refund for the 40 dollars or so. Hoping it happens like that again at least.

3arl Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Also super excited for baseball to start. Haven't gone into a season with actual expectations for the Astros in a long time. Last year was all fun, but I'm sure parts of this season will be pretty nerve racking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhook Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Just got the Baseball America 2016 prospect handbook. For the first time in awhile almost all of the top prospects are positional players. Makes me wonder if we are going to see a big offensive outburst over the next couple years. Anyone else as dorky as me and read this?

jhook Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The book lists each teams top 30 prospects. Lucas Giolito is #1 overall for the Nationals Julio Urias is #2 overall with the Dodgers with Corey Seager being #1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhook Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Arcia made Segura expendable. Phillips looks like he could be a steroid-less Braun type corner outfielder, he also has a dumb laugh but I am sure you already know about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Giolito is #1 overall for the Nationals Julio Urias is #2 overall with the Dodgers with Corey Seager being #1 They don't do a top list of all prospects? I think with prospects lists they favor hitting over pitching because hitters are more likely to succeed. There's too many things that can go wrong with a pitcher that makes them go from can't miss to never getting the call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhook Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 They have several top lists in the front of the book but it's by the writers opinion, each one is pretty much different. When you go over the lists for each team, for the first time in a long time, a lot of #1's are position players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catalinacaper Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Freddie Freeman seems to have his mojo back a little this spring. I really think he's due to have a breakout year in terms of power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you say this about him last year? I think what we see with him is what we get. He starts hot and slowly regresses to his 20 ish homers and .280 average. Good but not great.
