Fan and collector.

Agree with the comments about too much money and the zombie runner.

The other new rules I like, especially pitch clock. Moves game along, but am seeing creative ways to take advantage of the clock too. If you look seriously at the thought process of how to win a game, and put your thoughts up against the current manager(s), the game hasn't changed too much when it is playoff time. Holds my interest. Maybe they should shorten the season back to 154 though.

Huge baseball fan until the early 90's strike. Now just a collector and fan of the history of the game. Always much to learn.

Sports fan, collector, history nerd. Although I like baseball (and sold cokes at Busch stadium in college), I am a much bigger football fan. But love collecting vintage baseball cards because of the history.

I'm both but like many others I spend more time watching old baseball games on YouTube than I do watching live games until the post season starts

As I'm in the UK game highlights work much better for me anyhow.

The last decade has been rough as a baseball fan.

At the moment, given the continued dominance of the worthless Dodgers, the sense of gluckschmerz is strong for me, and seems to have little or no possibility of abating anytime soon.

But it could turn to schadenfreude (at least for this year) at any moment, if the Mets can get it together!
