“I have an entrepreneurial spirit…I wanted to continue my Fantasy Life stuff. I wanted to be able to keep doing that and building those businesses,” said Berry.

This is truly a full circle moment for me,” said Berry, who served as a fantasy football expert at NBC Sports’ Rotoworld from 1999-2004.

Berry is expected to host a daily podcast and have his own Sunday fantasy football show.

Benetti, who is with ESPN now and is voice of the Chicago White Sox television broadcasts as well as Peacock's MLB Sunday Leadoff game, would join Brock Huard in the booth.

"Marchand writes that there is no formal agreement as of yet and the network declined to comment."

"Perhaps the biggest issue I have is there’s nobody there to set the scene, or to build drama in key moments. Those big sequences in a game need a play-by-play announcer to let you know just how important this situation is to the game."

"Benetti is entertaining to watch. Whether you’re an old school follower of baseball and feel that batting average is still important, or a newer, metrics fan, he can appeal to you."

"The Derby saw its best numbers since 2019 on Saturday. The audience peaked at 19 million."

"To me, it’s just another case of baseball stepping on its own foot and not really understanding the marketplace."

So while radio isn’t necessarily needing to replace a revenue stream like TV, there’s never harm in adding a new one.
