Those are not cheap tickets, as you can imagine.

No, that's why they want to try and lock in dates early.  They are down there longer and longer each year.

The closest I'm coming to you is Destin in January. My FIL's family mostly lives around there. I also know that's about as far from you as one can get while still in Florida.

Well, you're halfway here at least.

From my understanding, the cactus League is both more tightly concentrated, and in nicer stadiums.  The grapefruit League is dependent on nostalgia.  But for me, Florida is closer, and I have a free place to stay

Played it out on OOTP, and the Braves beat the Astros in 6 to win the title.  But it's rarely that predictable

That also has to go down as the worst round of playoffs in any American sport ever.  4 2-0 sweeps, no 1 run games,.only 6 of 8 decided by 2 runs

Yet it was played in less than 32 hours so I won't complain too much.   Nba first round takes 2+ weeks .

NBA playoffs are in tight competition with college basketball's regular season for the most unwatchable individual sports games on the planet.
