The Miami Marlins should not sign a local TV broadcast exclusivity contract with Sinclair Broadcasting Group because Bally Sports Florida is a bad frame for the Marlins; they’d be selling their drama short.
Baseball as an entertainment is about drama. With the length of a 162-game season fans see players develop and emerge in the Majors as the games are played, we see division rivalries play out across 19 games every year, and we see the organization above it all make transactions and acquisitions that determine the future of the franchise.
Fans can engage with it all by watching along.
