Braves Plot In-House Regional Network After Main Street Sports Exit

TL;DR Summary
Atlanta is reportedly planning to launch its own regional sports network after terminating its deal with Main Street Sports, potentially mirroring the Texas Rangers’ in-house model with distributor carriage, streaming, and a local OTA broadcast. The Braves may temporarily move rights to MLB for 2026 while building the network, leveraging Gray Media’s existing Braves airtime; success could become a blueprint for other teams, but the traditional RSN framework is collapsing and time to execute is tight.
