After further negotiations, the sides reached an agreement for 2025 that includes both linear and digital streaming rights and replaces the Reds-MLB arrangement. The streaming rights had not been included in the previous Bally contract.

The Reds are the second team to revert to the FanDuel Sports Networks after previously planning to turn broadcasts to MLB. The Brewers did the same a couple weeks ago. In both cases, the team only agreed to a one-year deal. MLB has expressed skepticism about the broadcast corporation’s long-term viability despite its emergence from bankruptcy.

The team reversed its November announcement and says FanDuel will continue producing Reds games this season instead of Major League Baseball, and will offer expanded direct-to-consumer streaming of all games not broadcast nationally.
