Shysterball had a posting a few days ago about how Insight Communications customers will not be getting the new Major League Baseball Network that launches January 1.
Hopefully this won’t mean missing out on big games during the season.
Since I don’t have regular access to the NFL Network, I really don’t have much to compare it to but I would love to see what the MLB-N has to offer, especially since our boy Barry Larkin will be a game or studio analyst.
While Baseball Tonight is clearly ESPN’s best show, it trends toward the bigger market clubs and I was hoping to get some non-Yankee/Red Sox/Cubs/Mets news from a new source.
It will be interesting to see what happens when Fox ends their contract for Saturday afternoon baseball, the All-Star Game, and World Series games in 2013. I say they need to give those games/events to NBC so that Al Michels can work his magic instead of the insufferable Joe Buck and Tim McCarver.
