This is a good thing as long as Benetti is going too
So for the teams that were on MLB media last year how did fans get access to their games? How much did it cost?
This is big for you guys, MLB is way better than fan duel. As a guardians fan, I absolutely loved the MLB package. The absolutely best way is having TV and radio broadcasts synced up!
The wings are probably also going to be on MLB TV next season? Wonder how that’s going to work
Pardon the ignorance, but does this mean Tigers games will be broadcast using the MLB TV app? Just wonder if it’s going to cost more than $20 a month now.
I thought the mlb TV app was only for people who live outside the area?
I know people are excited for the demise of FanDuel Sports network. I’ve never been a fan either. However, right now I pay $20 a month to watch tigers, Red Wings, and Pistons games. We’re now looking at a possible reality where I’m paying $20 for each of them. I don’t think that’s exactly a “win” for the consumer.
Oh thank god
Would tigers be available on Hulu tv next season?
Does anyone know if you already have the mlb.tv app to watch out of market games do you have to pay more to watch the Tigers or will they be included?
Will this have any affect on watching the tigers out of network through MLB tv? Always do tmobiles $20 deal for the whole season and watch almost all the games that way out of state
In Northwest Ohio, all three RSNs (Detroit, Cleveland and Cincinnati) are included in the DirectTV silver package that includes sports. Does not do much for football but I can watch a shit ton of baseball.
To subscribe to all three is $30 per month extra with other streaming services.
I will have to see what the Detroit/MLB cost will be to understand the calculus of next year’s streaming plans.
So like…. what about people who have regular old cable and FanDuel was included with their cable package? Omg how am I going to explain this to my parents.
I’m bummed. Fan Duel is part of my package already. Hate having to get another streaming service. Don’t care as much not seeing the Wings or Pistons as during the school year I do t get to tune in as much but I watch about 90% of Tiger games.
I hope this isn’t gonna be one of those bullshit streaming apps where I can’t change the channel during commercial breaks without waiting for the spinning circle to load because if that’s the case it’s gonna piss me off every time I watch a game
Living in AZ we have the DBacks go through them here. The wife is a DBacks fan so I have to get it for her as an add-on to League Pass so I can watch the Tigers. $99 I think it was for the full season. I don’t mind paying it personally. Rather the money go to MLB than supporting online gambling companies as well.
