I'm sure they'll get it eventually

It’s very boring to watch. Just realized Yelich is 1 for 20.

This game is tough to watch right now.

This is the problem when you watch hoping players do well for the sake of your PC card prices.

Can't we all watch some baseball and just enjoy it and forget about card prices?

A BB is good - he’s at least not pressing, and willing to get on base!

Not what I’m talking about. In fact...I only own 2 Acuna cards. I’m talking about how boring the product on the field is playing out on tv. Play isn’t great. No crowd. Announcers aren’t into it. etc. I’m talking about everything other than cards!

Braves haven’t played a home game yet. Face Morton tomorrow in Atlanta. We’ll see if that helps. They led the NL in Ks heading into today and have added a lot to it. At least he walked twice. Freeman has 4 Ks today.

Watching the games is definitely weird...it’s like a psyop with the crowd noise and the CGI fans, really weird that they feel the need to do that. How about no crappy announcers and better dugout/field sound ? Different camera angles, idk? Anything but artificial commentating and optics...what am I a monkey ?

Which telecast is doing CGI fans??? Red Sox games are broadcast w/the fan noise, but empty seats. Honestly I like the fan noise. But CGI sounds bad

Maybe I'm in the minority but I'm enjoying it. I feel like the players focus better this way. I go to at least 30 games a season, so I'm not hating on fans or anything since it's affecting me too since I can't go

Same. I've watched all five Rays games. Enjoying the fact that baseball has started.

I’m on the “this is terrible” side.

Not exciting at all. So many players not playing for various reasons. No fans. Poor product quality. Commentators constantly talking over each other.

They are playing well as expected. Pitching is ridiculous.

With the Red Sox stinking it up I decided to try Fox Sports 1... and they aren’t doing CGI for LA vs Hou... I wonder if it is used regionally?

Man, people need to realize baseball is normally a marathon and not a race.

Guys all the time have horrible streaks. Acuna is extremely streaky based on his play in his career. Remember his amazing August followed up with a bad September?

You shouldn't be worried about a few games with him.

What you should be worried is if he gets hurt or has a ridiculously long slump.

Needs to cut the hair and only wear the white jersey.

this season it's a race.. specially if the Braves don't play the Marlins, its a 50 game season.

just curious: when you sent that in to psa, did you feel it was a 10 or were you kind of expecting a 9? and in looking at it after you got it back, can you tell why it’s a 9 versus the higher grade?

I thought it had a decent shot at a 10, but the top edge on the back is off-perfect, so wasn’t shocked.

No one looks good right now across the league. I wouldn’t take this season seriously in any fashion.

Plenty of players are looking really good.
