I'm still not worthy to start a thread in News & Announcements for some reason

I guess this probably eliminates any possibility that the games will ever be broadcast on Sirius radios :-(

It still is great news to all that are involved!

They are just keeping it on the XM side, they want folks to continue coughing up that extra money for the Premiere Sub in order to get it on the Sirius Side.

No. Its a clause in the old XM-MLB contract which prevents broadcast over anything but XM sats. To change the clause should be a simple 'yeah sure' from MLB but they wanted more $$$. Simple as that. Given Sirius radios are on the way out, why pay extra $$$$ for a limited time? Good business sense (and yes I find it odd I am using that phrase when refering to SXM).

Oh its a clause little doubt about that, but you are naive if you really believe SiriusXM ever even tried to change the terms of this agreement. Because right now they want those dollars from the Premier service and that is a business decision.
