With the MLB package, I get to see all the different announce teams. What are some of your guys favorite teams? I really enjoy the D-Backs team of Grace and Darren Sutton.

i mentioned elsewhere that grace is a riot. i don't have the package, but is he still calling mark reynolds "the sheriff?"

vin scully does a brilliant call. it's a little claustrophobic at first, and i feel like people either love it or hate it, but he's one of the greats, in my opinion.

i can't think of any others that really stand out. the twins call with blyleven can be a fun listen. i'll have to ask my friends who do have extra innings, cause i know they've told me some hilarious stories about random broadcasts.

When I had MLBTV out at school, I got some other team's feed while watching the Sox. Surprisingly, the Royals broadcasters are quite good, as well as the Tigers. I probably enjoyed them 2 the most.

They are OK. Sometimes they get too into their inside jokes, and stray from the game.

The announcers for the Red Sox are brutal.

The Yankees TV game call is top quality, but the broadcast as a whole is over produced.

I still like Jon Miller sans Joe Morgan.

The D'Backs game is a good listen. I also enjoy Minnesota, San Diego and Washington. The Yanks are good when Paul O'Neil is in the booth.

Seattle, the Mets and Detroit are bad. I also hate Vin Scully(LAD) Harry Callis(PHI) and Jon Miller (Asshat).

Boston is unwatchable. Thank God they give you both feeds this year. Jerry Remy is such a fuckin homer he makes Hawk blush and that stupid Boston accent drives me crazy. 'Next up for Bawston is Pedawia followed by Awtiz then Manny Wamiwez'.

Boston gave us that hilarious moment (with, I think, Denis Leary in the booth?) where they were saying something about Youkilis being Jewish and he hit a home run or something.. man I really can't remember how it went down, but it was hilarious.
