If you sign up for DirecTV's Extra Innings, you will get all the baseball games. It's just like NFL Ticket but not quite as expensive. There will be an occasional game you can't get due to contractural blah-blah, but you will get 99% of the games. and you can choose whether you want the Mets' broadcasters or not. The other funny thing is that all the commercials are local to the team.

However, you can also, for $25/month, sign up to receive games online at mlb.com. This will also give you all the games (except for ocasionally blacked out games). we had this in MI and it worked fine, but we found it buffered quite a bit down here with Comcast internet (lots of pauses & drops), so we signed up for Extra Innings. But perhaps you would have better luck than we did. They bill by the month, and you can cancel at any time.

Love the Mets. We were fans when we lived in NJ.

Stroglas is right, sign up for the MLB package and you can watch virtually all of their games. You can also watch the Yankee games and see a real team in action.

You can watch them this weekend because they are playing the Marlins on channel 654 Fox Sports Fl starting tonight at 7pm. Mets won their first World Series on my 18th birthday. It's been few and far in between since then, but I keep rooting. lol

Checkout MLB Extra Innings, living in Florida you will get all games except for any local teams that might be blacked out. In PA I can get every MLB game except the Phillies.

Try channel Directv 720 if you have a high definition TV. I don't have the extra innings package but I do get this channel which shows up to 8 games on one screen. You can pick which game you want to hear the audio from. The viewing area is smaller for the game you want to watch but I have found it to be OK for watching my team's games (the Rockies) not otherwise available.
