FanGraphs: Diamond Sports Group's Bankruptcy Could Rock the Baseball Revenue Boat

That's another good article by Ben Clemens.  Teams possibly impacted by this crazy....(from the article) "*DSG holds local broadcast rights for 14 teams: the Arizona Diamondbacks, Atlanta Braves, Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Guardians, Detroit Tigers, Kansas City Royals, Los Angeles Angels, Miami Marlins, Milwaukee Brewers, Minnesota Twins, St. Louis Cardinals, San Diego Padres, Tampa Bay Rays, and Texas Rangers. They also own minority stakes in the Marquee network, which broadcasts Chicago Cubs games, and YES Network, which broadcasts New York Yankees games."

I just got back to MD after a drive back from south Florida. And this is the first email I opened.

 

Not what you want.

 

Hi [...],

‌

We have been working hard to renew our deal with the MLB Network to continue carrying their content on YouTube TV. However, we have been unable to reach an agreement, and starting today, January 31, 2023, MLB Network content will no longer be available on YouTube TV. You will also lose access to any previous Library recordings from this channel. Members will be able to continue watching select national MLB games via coverage on FOX, ESPN, and TBS through our Base Plan. We also provide the flexibility to pause or cancel your membership anytime.

‌

We apologize for the news and will continue conversations with the MLB to advocate on your behalf, in the hope of restoring their content on YouTube TV.

‌

As always, thank you for being a YouTube TV member, and for your patience and understanding.

‌

Sincerely,

The YouTube TV team
