February 14-16
Cards open Friday 14th against Texas.

I did a little digging on how to watch these games. You can watch by downloading the FloSports app on Apple TV. Stay tuned...

Does it require a subscription? Thanks!

I'm certain you'll need the Apple subscription, however you do that. Free trial or maybe you've already got it. I don't think it's much,but I'm not sure how to do the FloSports app that we'll need too.
Anybody??

I downloaded the app and it looked like I needed a subscription. Also, any word from the baseball office or UofL on when the 2025 roster is getting posted?

You can do a 7 day free trial with Apple +
It's 9.99 if you've had it before. I'm in the process of trying to get my subscription back so I can try to watch this thing. Did you download Flosports app?

Roster? Who knows

 

[Bardman]

I downloaded the FloSports app on my Roku TV. I need to look again a out the subscription- admittedly, I didn’t spend much time looking at after I downloaded it.

How much for that flosports subscription? I am able to cast flosports to my TV I think after I get subscription. I don't think I need Apple +

 

[earsky]

Okay I'm starting to figure this out. Any help for this old boomer is appreciated 😅

I think all you need is the flosports app which comes with a subscription. I'm going to chast from my phone to the TV. I'm seeing a 5 day free trial and then 59.99 after that.

I'm going to wait until Thursday to activate the subscription free trial and then cancel Sunday night or Monday.

I was confused about Apple TV + and an Apple TV, which aren't the same thing. You shouldn't need Apple Tv+ to watch with the FloSports app and subscription.

Clear as mud,right?

 

[Bardman]

I didn’t use Apple TV to get it. I may do the free trial as well and then cancel.

Yeah,I got the Apple TV device,which you don't need, confused with the Apple TV app that you can stream. You don't need either,but if you've got AN Apple tv you can download the FloSports app on it.

Otherwise, you'll have to do it thru a firestick,roku or Chromecast it from another device.

I am fully vested on watching these games this weekend, come hell or high water. Lol

I expect to see Forbes out of the gate Friday.

I sure wish we could see our '25 roster.

Mac is notorious for finalizing the roster up to the last second. He does it every year.

 

[Bardman]

Forbes, Detmers and Peter Michael (transfer from Northwestern - totally forgot about him).

 

[CardX]

And just like that, we have a roster.

Now all we need is a projected lineup!

 

[earsky]

Alicea-ss
Moore-cf
Rose-dh/lf
Klein-c
King-dh/lf
Neighbors-2b
Pike-rf
Davis-1b
Munroe-3b

If I had to venture a guess🙃
Can't wait..

Looking at the roster…CDM has several options in the INF. If someone isn’t getting it done defensively or offensively - he has options. He should also have plenty of options offensively to go against lefty and righty pitchers.

Oh yeah, lots of options all over. There are 3-4 guys who will likely be cemented in the batting rotation and those other 5-6 will be whoever is producing. The outfield is 2 deep if we throw the Freshmen in.
Crain is an outstanding Freshman center fielder who likely will be in the mix next season. Lippe will get his swings,but he may have to take his chance when he gets it and run with it. He's also outstanding running balls down out there.
Shiver is probably the next guy up at either 2nd or short, Baycot at 3rd and Early at 1st.

Tagger Tyson looks to be Klein's replacement at catcher,with Klein possibly sliding into the dh role on his days off.

That's it. I'm probably not gonna be right on all these things,but I feel comfortable with the 2 deep.
Let's play ball!!
