  1. MLB has made it increasingly difficult for fans to consume their product, and then wonder why they’re not growing the game as much as the NFL, NBA, etc.

  2. Am I understanding this correctly?

    The Reds very well could partner with a local TV station. If that happens only the people in Cincy or very close to it will be able to watch these games without an MLBtv subscription.

    If this happens and you’re out of market you can just get an MLBtv subscription and go that way.

    If you’re like me though and are just far away enough to not get local Cincy stations but are still in market and blacked out, there’s no legal way to watch the games.

  3. A few days after the Reds left Diamond Sports Group, Diamond announced they will partner with Prime Video to allow streaming for local markets with an added subscription. This inlcuded any sport. So if you were Cleveland you got the Guardians and the Cavs, probably the Tigers too with how massive “local markets” are. I found that hilarious.

  4. Do you think they are really “scrambling” though? The Reds front office don’t strike me as “scrambling” kind of people.
