DISH is pretty much dropping sports channels anyways.

I only posted it because I don't see anything on here mentioning it.

It's in the list at the top of the article under Xfinity / Comcast.

$100 for 150+ games seems very fair to me. Have there been added fees with the Twins on cable?

I did check and it was not there when I posted. I do see it now.

The chart shows that the Twins will be on Comcast/Xfinity channel 1261. Apparently, it won't be active until tomorrow because it doesn't exist at the moment I am typing this. You would think that they would activate it and at least put up a message to confirm the status of the channel. Not surprising at all.

1261 isn’t even in our Xfinity guide. What a mess.

Any word on fubo?

I just spoke with Fubo support, they were unable to give me any details as far as what subscription will be required or what channel it will be on.

Channel 468 is not on my Spectrum guide.  Hoping it's there come first pitch this afternoon.

The business side of the Twins is absolutely ****ing killing it yet again.*

*this situation isn't entirely their fault, MLB had a big hand in this **** show

Switched from Midco to NVC because of last summer's fiasco when Midco dropped them in the Bally dispute. Now this year Midco goes in with the groups signing up to carry Twins Tv. Northern Valley rep in a phone call this morning admitted frustration with MLB negotiations. Looks like they were playing hardball and not really concerned with smaller population areas which leaves many in SD who don't have Midco in the dark. This marketing manager said for the last couple of weeks MLB wasn't returning phone calls so basically any negotiations were over. Time to pony up for the Twins TV package.

Not seeing the channel on DirectTV stream.

Not on Bluepeak either. Tough break for folks in assisted living facilities with these TV providers!

I've got Spectrum here in Rochester and use Xumo streaming box.   I can't even access channels 428 or 468.  They aren't listed as viable channels.   What's up with that?   Is it because I'm now using the Xumo streaming box vs. hard wire cable box?

428 in St Cloud also. I didn't have to sign up. Just turned on 428 and there it was.  Either there isn't an extra fee or I am already at the level that it is included.

They usually run updates overnight, as I checked first thing this morning and it was there.

I paid the $99 for Twins Tv a couple weeks ago and today find out today my provider Midco is carrying them. Can I get my money back or am I SOL? Do I get anything for my 99?

I talked to a few midco subscribers who earlier in the week did the same. Was getting closer to gameday so they pulled the trigger on Twins Tv. Low and behold there it is on 638 the next day. Good way to add to subscriber numbers is to do the last minute negotiations, SOL is a given.
