MLB TV 2023

My rep confirmed it will be a Nats Plus perk again this year.

Did you get the activation email this year? Our ticket rep is claiming that it should've been sent out weeks ago, but my wife, whose email is the primary for our SPH account, can't find the email, and our rep is not being helpful.

I got an email this morning that it will be a T-Mobile perk again this year, for activation between March 28th and April 3rd.  Party of the weekly Tuesdays promos.  Not bad, a free year.  Well, 11 months.

Ultimately our ticket rep came through, and emailed a new code. I'm looking forward to this year's addition of minor league games.

Not sure what changed a year ago, but the VPN I used the previous year no longer worked.  I cancelled MLB.tv because I could no longer spoof my location well enough. Maybe because I was using ROKU and not a laptop?  VPN product recommendation?

Unlocator "smart dns" has worked well for years...

I was using a similar service. I think the problem is watching on ROKU, or on a Chromebook which does extra things to verify your location. I'm going to try again this year though.

My problem is I much prefer Charlie and Dave over Carp and whoever the new color guy is. I know in the past MLB TV has given you the option to watch the video feed with the radio audio synced up, but whenever I would use some sort of VPN to get around the blackouts it was impossible to keep them in sync. I'm not sure if that is due to the VPN or just MLB TV sucking in general but it's enough of an issue that I don't feel like jumping through hoops to get around the blackouts. I've been exclusively a radio listener for over a decade now and have never had a cable subscription.

I wish it were easier to sync up the radio guys to the TV. Do we know if Kevin Frandsen will be back this season? The one MASN-produced Nats spring training game I got to watch had Kolko in that role. They really need to stop using him as a sub. I like him as a sideline reporter, but he just was not cut out for color commentary and play by play.

Also, I wonder if Carp is planning on taking practically every other week off this season, as he has over the past few. That's just weird. I can't think of another play by play guy under 80 years old for a major league sport who takes so many vacation days.

They said Frandsen would be doing the next broadcast and Kolko was just filling in.  Nice to hear Bob. I'd like his thoughts on March Madness.

He’s picking Missouri and Creighton no doubt.
