The Chicago Cubs’ new cable network Marquee is following the lead of other regional sports networks and turning its morning hours over to VSiN. The radio network’s morning show, Follow The Money, will see its TV simulcast air on the new network.
Follow The Money’s TV simulcast is already carried on NESN, MSG Networks, and in Canada on Sportsnet 360. The radio show airs on VSiN on SiriusXM and on the BetR Network.
“That’s our toe in the water in the gaming space, but I would expect more to come from us,” Marquee general manager Mike McCarthy said in an interview with CableFax.com.
Marquee is still fighting carriage issues. Chicago’s largest cable provider, Comcast XFinity, has not committed to adding the network. Marquee is set to launch on February 22.
