This season will be the last for Bob Carpenter as the TV voice of the Washington Nationals & also the end, in all likelihood, of a great sports broadcasting career. He was the first host of ESPN's College Gameday & did other stuff for them & also was a voice for the St. Louis Cardinals. https://www.masnsports.com/blog/carpenter-reveals-this-will-be-final-season-as-nats-lead-announcer

 

The dc tv legends are all starting to retire One more year of Bob Carpenter

I honestly saw the Gray triopoly in Phoenix trying to snatch-up the Diamondbacks OTA rights, but good for Tegna for getting those broadcast rights, along with the Padres and Rockies.  Even said, as far as San Diego, I would thought that KUSI would have gone back and put-in a bid to carry some Padres games once again.  That said, good for KFMB (another station that spent some years carrying in different times in the last 45 years airing some Friars games), as well as the duopoly in the Mile High City.  Of course, as some folks know, KTVD carried a fair amount of Rockies games up until 2008.

Nothing new to say about the Bally/FanDuel scoreboard this year; everything remains unchanged. Rangers network board is nice, and unusually with the Twins now MLB-P&D'ed, instead of an RSN bug, the Progressive logo remains on the top right of the screen at all times in addition to being the presenting sponsor. Not unusual for radio now, but a first for TV coverage in this age.

Seattle Mariners, despite still being on an RSN (Root Sports NW), they're using MLB graphics.

KMSP will be airing select twins games this season… given how the twins session is starting, not sure if the station regrets the move yet. 
 

Edit: Gray will also be broadcasting the games region-wide. Remember Gray does not have a station themselves in the MSP market.

According to that other site, the Braves on Gray graphics are actually the first outing for what will eventually be a group-wide graphics package for regional sports broadcasts on Gray channels.
