I like Dan Dickerson...
My lord Jim Price needs to hang it up, he struggles just to complete sentences...
The other guys....
I can't comment because I don't watch Bally , since I "Cut the cord"...
Not paying to watch bad MLB baseball...
Not paying the ridiculous $$ cable TV keeps pushing at us....
I pay enough for internet....and my phone service....
And my gambling....
And my mistresses....

It is such a rip off that we cannot get the games on MLB.com.

This racket that Bally has needs to stop, the games should be on multiple channels and let people pick which they want

Heck, I had to do TuneIn premium in order to listen to the games up north because the radio stations are few and far between.

Why is America's pastime charging for everything. Let us at least watch and listen for free. The teams make enough money.

I love the irony of your last sentence. Something that stands for America is selfish and greedy and overcharges and gives less options? Surely you jest!

The app, which does leave much to be desired, is $20 a month. That's $1 a game! Bad baseball and hockey, yup. And atrocious basketball too! I don't watch even half the games, but that is how TV works. I have MAX and before the merger there was way to much to keep up with. I pay for shows I don't know exist. I pay for games I don't watch. I doubt they would sell single games for less than $5.

I miss Gibby and Josh Lewin, but things change.

[CurlyHoward]

if so many people hadn't gotten rid of cable, even the app wouldn't be an option.

I miss Rod and Mario, but they hated each other, couldn't keep it under control to be professional, and they were gone.

Monroe is alright. Shepard is just generic. I've heard worse MLB broadcasts, though.

[BirdieKingBobo]

Mario was Great.
Dickerson is good.

The rest outside of Gibby ..... suck.
Rod is and always will be a joke with those Ace Hardware commercials.
Price enough said.
Monroe side piece .... talks too much.

I got a kick out of Craig during Monday's game. Before the Tigers came back to win, he apologized for the Tigers lack of offense by saying it wasn't the hitters' fault, the Kansas City pitchers weren't giving them anything good to hit.

Rod Allen tried to be more of a hip comedian than anything. It was hard to listen to a game with him.

Craig Monroe doesn't really provide much analysis. Unrelated, I still think of him as the belt stealer above anything else.

Price is awful and always had been. He should retire, if anything for health reasons. Focus on his charity more.

Andy Dirks gave great insight when he filled in for Price. He needs more broadcasting polish but there is potential.

The P by P guys are overall just average. Shepard is mediocre in every way. Dickerson is fine until he starts screaming like they just won the World Series.

We were spoiled for so many years with Ernie.

[MWmetalhead]

I agree regarding Dirks. He is already a vastly better color analyst than Price.

[jsf]

I'm tired of Monroe talking about how to hit. if I remember right he was a 250 lifetime hitter with some power.

Off topic, but I came across this article about the worst pitcher in MLB history... who played for Detroit in 1912. The story was rarely told in mainstream media as Detroit is a big union town, known more to baseball aficionados. The player was a replacement for a striker.
