I see very little chance of any new Ownership group shelling out over $1.5 B and then allow Joe Pohlad to hang around beyond at most 1 year/season. Just makes zero sense, given his lack of any track record.
Weird but more understandable given recent NBA Championship success and as a way to keep the Basketball Operations intact with Stevens.
Thanks for posting this. Came on here to see if I can watch them on Comcast and it seems like the answer is: “we still don’t know yet”

I'm sad to learn that Uff Da Communications is not a real cable company.
Still no Comcast on the list nor what's important to me, Spectrum.

I don't think it's clear that DirecTV is on board yet either. They've been saying it will be on 668 for weeks, but that's the same channel a FanDuel and I think there's confusion. All of the other MLB teams that did this last year have stand alone chanels, not sub-channels of their old RSN.Still no Comcast on the list nor what's important to me, Spectrum.
The Twins' TV Cable Channels Are Here
How and where to watch the Twins, and what we can glean from recent changes in the cable and streaming markets.
Doogie on SKOR North said he is sure games will be available in some fashion on DirectTV, for those that at least are already paying for the Sport Tier package.
It’s just not when you switch, but continuously?
I have Direct TV with the Sports Package. FD North (Channel 668) is not showing the Thursday game on their schedule but is being shown on FD Midwest (Channel 671) for the St. Louis market.
It obviously can't be on FanDuel, but they are claiming it will be on 668-3 (possible) but somehow on 668 itself on DirecTV Stream which makes no sense. FanDuel will not be off the air during the Twins game so they can't share a channel.
But that doesn't include the Twins if you live in market.
668-2 and 668-3 currently showing "To Be Announced" on their channel guide. They have the Michelle Beadle show scheduled for their primary 668 channel.
Correct. I live out of market so can watch all the Twins games with it except for when they play the Brewers.
Yeah, but they say that by default 90% of the time.
Yes. Every year.
Ahh, black-outs. I don't live in market area so forgot about that.
Home games, right?
Wow, that’s amazing - thanks
Home/road makes no difference. If you live in the Twins TV territory you either have to have the Twins.TV subscription or have it carried by your regular TV provider.
That sucks. At least give you away games.
The road games are just as valuable to the local TV/Streaming providers as are the home games which is why they are currently also protected.
Doesn't MLB give the teams a piece of their action?
Yeah (1/30th after overhead and a small slice to the league office) but that's not the point.
