I haven't bought Cactus League tickets yet, so I don't know if I'm going to a Spring Training game for 2019. The Angels, Cubs, Athletics & D-Backs/Rockies are the closest to my house.

Spring Training is too long. Start the season in Mid March and then we don't have to have Baseball on Halloween. Heck, my schedule would be Baseball starts mid-march, playoffs start Labor Day, you reduce the season by like 8 games, and the season ends in early October, but I know that isn't going to happen.

Mid-March? Lots of snow games getting played if it get pushed that early.

you realize how weather works in the Midwest and Northeast, right?

In March we're still looking at highs in the 30s and snowstorms.

Naw, the schedule is fine how it is. As they say, baseball is a marathon.

How much are we talking?

Cant speak for other teams but I recently moved to FL and wanted to catch some Mets spring training games and they are $30-35 for a seat but you can sit on the outfield grass for $25 on weekends/$15 weekdays. The closest facility where I live is the Braves and I saw some tickets as high as $45 though you can get in for $15. Ridiculous for spring training games

The Braves games are stupid expensive because they play at Disney.
