MLB and Roku are nearing a Sunday morning TV deal, and a Cubs game is likely involved
admin 2024/05/12 00:42For the last two years, MLB has had an exclusive deal with the Peacock streaming service to show a game each Sunday in an exclusive window in the late morning.
That’s about to change, per Andrew Marchand in The Athletic:
"Major League Baseball and Roku are in advanced talks to make the service the new home for Sunday morning baseball this season, sources briefed on the discussions confirmed to The Athletic on Thursday.
The games were previously on NBC’s subscription streaming service Peacock. Peacock has been interested in retaining the “MLB Sunday Leadoff” package of nearly 20 games. It paid $30 million per season, but was only willing to renew for about a third of that price, according to executives briefed on the discussions.
MLB and Roku do not yet have a signed agreement, leaving the possibility that talks could still break down. MLB declined to comment."
