Worse baseball announcer on the planet?
SInce I've had MLBTV, I've watched almost all the Diamondbacks game, and every time I cringe at some of the shit that comes out of his mouth.
He's terrible.

He simply cannot be worse than Joe Morgan. It's not possible.

I grew up on Gracie. He kills me, and I haven't heard a word he's said since he's retired, but I can see how he'd be too much to handle for 3 hours a night.

Joe Morgan is FUCKING AWFUL! I die a little inside every time I have to watch MLB on ESPN.

MLBtv just streams whatever company is covering a game locally, right?

It'll be the announcers for one of the teams that is playing, yes.
But you never know which one.

Being a Chicagoan, I love Mark Grace.
As a player, of course. I am not familiar with his broadcasting endeavors.
But he simply cannot be as bad as Joe Buck. I am a baseball junkie and will happily watch Korean Women's Little League games to get my fix. But Joe Buck will make me turn off a baseball game, or at least dim the sound.
I hate everything about the way he calls baseball.

Yeah. I actually do not mind Joe Buck during football, because I love listening to Troy Aikman trying hard not to sound like he wants to murder the fool.

I can say this is true for the Red Sox games on mlb.tv. Every time there's a game at Fenway I get to see it on NESN with Don and Jerry Remy. Whenever they're away, it's ALWAYS on the other team's channel.
Can't say for sure what they do with other teams.

Holy shit Joe Morgan is terrible. He keeps rambling on about how Fukudome is like Ichiro and Matsui. He isn't talking about the game at all. Half of the shit he says doesn't even make sense.

Thank god I have it on WGN here @ work.
Joe Morgan is a retard. I've heard him say at Wrigley that Ernie Banks owed 99% of his home runs to the basket in the outfield, which didn't even exist at that time. I've also heard him refer to Aramis Ramirez as Aramis Rodriguez FOR A WHOLE FUCKING GAME.

I like a line he just used, "it's something that maybe happens all the time over there".
Yeah, and he needs to shut up about Fukedome.
