Update - Twins President says new TV deal could be announced in a couple of weeks. From the Strib:
The Twins’ one-year contract with Diamond Sports Group, the parent company of Bally Sports North, expired at the end of the season. St. Peter said a resolution for the Twins’ TV contract could come within the next few weeks.
“We’re working very diligently on trying to finalize what that looks like for 2025 and beyond. I’m excited about the prospects of that,” he said. “I certainly believe there will be widespread access for Twins baseball on both radio and television, both through what I would call a traditional cable/satellite distribution model, but maybe more importantly in the environment we’re in, a direct-to-consumer or streaming option. More on that to come.
“I would guess it’ll come fairly soon, perhaps as soon as the next couple of weeks. I think that will be a good news story for Twins fans across the region.”
