In the past ,I've had these to watch Cardinals and Blues. My question is even if you have one of these now,can you watch the games? Or,do you have to pay for the app no matter what?

Nobody knows. The Cardinals will likely be trying to strong arm tv providers into paying a high price for the unpolished turd of a product they’re selling right up until the season starts, and it’ll then be a mad scramble for fans to try to figure out how to watch the games once the Cardinals accept the inevitable lower rate from tv providers.

I think I'll live if the games aren't available - plus, between channel 4 and the national broadcasts the Cards will be on about 15 times and I'm not sure I can even watch the tank job that many times in all honesty!

How are the Cardinals rolling into ST and NOT giving fans a clear listing of where the 2026 St Louis Cardinals games will be aired??
I have Spectrum cable and DirecTV if any info about the Cards channel is public please post.

Yeah, once the old man and his little brat of a son show me they actually GOF will I make more effort investing in this team. But with all the laziness, complacency and more importantly, the gaslighting displayed by the 2. I’m good with keeping my wallet closed and just watching them in passing at a bar or restaurant or something of the sort

Generally speaking games will be distributed through the same providers FanDuel was. There is a chance MLB and individual outlets may not reach agreement, but I'd like to think MLB wouldn't screw up by playing hardball. But it's MLB so we'll see.

Cardinals.tv. $100 for the season, $19.99 if you choose monthly. No blackouts for anyone. They’re making it the easiest it’s been in a while.

I think they have. They have said wherever you watched broadcasts last year, you will be able to do again this year (though it may just have a new name).

LOL....$100 dollars a season to watch this pitiful effort at fielding a competitive team. They can obviously shove it.

I just checked with Direct TV. Grab your butt!! There is a cost for home games and an additional cost for away games. Their prices our out of my price range.

Out of curiosity how much?

There you go. I’ve been telling people that if you had cable and watched Cardinals games, then you had the regional sports package, which you have to pay a premium for. Easiest thing to do is drop $99 for the app and get all the games wherever you are and whatever device you want it on. $99 really isn’t that much and probably about the same you would pay for the regional sports package trough cable, and sounds like cheaper than it now.

It’s definitely going to help us because we always paid for the cable package at home, but weren’t going to pay another $120 or whatever for our TV at our lake house. Now we just need this and we can watch it whenever for one price.

Ok. No one is making you I guess. 60 cents a game isn’t bad to me.
