Yikes. That won't work long term

Cigar and coffee money for ownership.

I honestly don’t know but it just feels like the organization dropped the ball and limited their options. This has been an issue for two years or more.

Manfred will pool most local rev and share with new CBA….

And most of the owners will just pocket that money.

Manfred will pool most local rev and share with new CBA….

and take control of local broadcasts..

is that really what you want?

They can and should operate at a deficit for the next year or so. It’s what they deserve for the giant middle finger they’ve given the fanbase for the past three years.

But there’s no way this is sustainable long term. Say goodbye to MLB for at least 2027.

It’s called revenue sharing which would eliminate most of the moaning and groaning about “Big Markets Spend too Much,,,,We can’t compete”
Why do I care what MLB does with their $$?
How does Green Bay compete with NY and LA in NFL? It’s all shared….I get there’s no local TV with NFL…..but NY and LA obviously bring in more Rev than GB….and its shared.

There already is revenue sharing.

It’s troubling that the cards broadcast autonomy is for sale…

48% with 52% staying with local Team. If they fully revenue shared now…..what would Cranny be complaining about that poor BDW can’t compete with big bad LA….NY

This greatly troubles you as a Houston fan??? The system is obviously broken. The Product is MLB, if half their teams can’t achieve local TV rev then time for a change.

As you wish comrade …

I’m opposed to New York dictating broadcast policy in Stl, Houston , or any other city.

These aren’t independent entities……they need the other teams to come to town in order to have a product to sell. They’re all in this together under MLB. MLB is the product. Do you go watch the home stand on the field alone?

Good luck getting the Dodgers to agree to share their massive $334M per year that rises to over $500M near the end of the deal!

Yankees.....$143M

Blue Jays...$100M-$150M est

I agree it should happen but these teams with massive local rights deals are going to tell ManFraud to "Go to h e l l".
