Marquee is loosening its collar for Cubs game broadcasts.
Marquee looks a lot better financially if they're able to strike a deal with Comcast and gain access to large numbers of Comcast's 1.56 million Chicago-area subscribers. We'll see if that happens, though.
The talent roster includes Ryan Dempster, Lou Piniella, Doug Glanville, Rick Sutcliffe, and Chris Myers.

WGN had been broadcasting Chicago Cubs games since 1948. Saturday's game against the Cardinals marked their final home broadcast.
The Marquee Sports Network will launch in 2020.
