Rays to Finally Cash in on TV Ratings

For all their attendance struggles, the Rays have had great TV ratings over the years.  And finally, it appears they'll cash in on that long-anticipated value, reportedly inking a 15-year TV deal with Fox Sports worth an average $82 million per year, starting in 2019, according to Sports Business Daily.

This deal was not unexpected:

In 2010, I wrote how the Rays' budget problems would be remedied by their impending windfall of TV bucks.

In 2012, I wrote how MLB TV revenues were on-pace to soon dwarf ticket revenues.

In 2015, I wrote how the Rays quietly extended their TV deal, delaying their mega-windfall by what we now know is a couple years.

In 2016, I wrote how the Rays (and every other team) hauled in some $50 million each from selling off a piece of equity in MLB Advanced Media.

So yes, the Rays have a ton of new revenue about to pour in...but its likely not "new" revenue that the team is all of a sudden going to commit to payroll or a new stadium;  they are revenues the team was already budgeting.

That deal, according to Sports Business Daily, by the way, will reportedly increase the Rays' TV deal from $35 million in 2018 to $50 million in 2019, climbing all the way through 2033.

  4. Being a father is a tough task but being a father of 3 girls who still leave with you can be more of a job. For a while I had insecurities and was always worried about where they were,what they were doing and with who?..basically all those fatherly thoughts and even the nasty ones trust me all those thoughts can be close to driving you crazy. My colleague told me about perisic allied services tho skeptical at first cos these days everyone is hacker with all these their adverts on every blog. I contacted James after reconsidering and it wasn't a bad idea. I must say his service in the CIA kinda cos I know where Amy is gonna be on Saturday on Monday and who she is gonna be with and I feel a lot better now cos I know the kind of people they hangout with and I know how to advice when I think they are getting it wrong. I'm proud of my girls
    Thanks James
    You wanna feel better like me ? Email James Perisic and tell him all your problems I just needed surveillance I don't know what yours is
