the pressure is off zambrano this year for the most part. more attention is on garza and the expectations for z are considerably lower than usual. i think those factors will allow for him to have a very good season.

less than an hour away!

Gonna rely on WGN this season being outside of Chicago. Let's go Cubs!

I moved from Iowa to 45 minutes south of St. Louis because my fiancee is going to culinary school down here. So no comcast games for me this year only WGN.

You out of town guys should get mlb.tv on mlb.com, it's worth the price for sure. I did it when I lived out of state for a while. Definitely well worth it.

Even though I'm 6 hours south of the city, MLB still blacks me out of Cubs and White Sox games. It's ridiculous since I get FSN Midwest here (Cardinals) and not CSN.

and i get csn out in iowa, it's basically just 'chicago west' here. the tv network distribution is weird.

The weather is awful out right now. Hopefully this isn't delayed or anything.

I don't get WGN, but I get to watch the game on some Pittsburgh sports station today.

I'm waiting to see how many games I'll miss due to work before I buy it. I just started so I don't really have a consistent schedule yet.

WGN airs a lot fewer games than they used to. With more and more games going to CSN and WCIU, I think mlb.tv is a wise investment if you live out of town. Fortunately I live in the Chicago area, so I get all those channels.
