Crane Kenney again confirms #Cubs will launch own TV network in 2020 after other TV deals expire.

Does anyone know how YES network works? Does it take like a third of games or something? I can't imagine all the games being on a Cubs network.

YES has almost all of the games. There are maybe a dozen or so that's on an OTA network, but other than that it's all YES.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised the Cubs only care about the big bucks instead of fans and viewership. Cubs fans will show up anyway.

Honestly, the Sox and Cubs are in the minority here. Most teams have the vast majority of their games on a cable network. I know the Cardinals are entirely on Fox Sports Midwest.
