The season from hell gets worse.
Per ESPN:
"Diamond Sports Group, the bankrupt operator of Bally Sports channels, said it will stop broadcasting games in 2025 for 11 of the 12 Major League Baseball teams it currently televises.
Diamond announced the decision Wednesday in court, saying it would continue carrying Atlanta Braves games next season.
Seven of the remaining 11 teams -- the Cincinnati Reds, Detroit Tigers, Kansas City Royals, Los Angeles Angels, Miami Marlins, St. Louis Cardinals and Tampa Bay Rays -- were under contract with Diamond for 2025. Those teams will have to either negotiate a new deal with Diamond or find a different operator.
The other four teams carried by Diamond this season -- the Cleveland Guardians, Milwaukee Brewers, Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers -- had deals with Diamond that expired after the 2024 season."
