D-Backs Get $1.5 Billion TV Deal!

[PDXChris]

Diamondbacks CEO Derrick Hall called the team's new lucrative television deal a financial "game-changer," but he cautioned that it won't effect the way the club spends in the immediate short-term.

There are indications the deal is for 20 years and guarantees the club north of $1.5 billion. Moreover, the deal is also believed to include an equity stake in the network.

So that works to about $75 million a year. WOW.

The good news is that if this teams develops the way we hope it does, then filling those holes next off season should be a whole lot easier.

I don't think LaRussa and Stewart came here to play golf... I have no doubt that they will do everything within their power to put together a winning franchise. Doesn't mean we'll see more World Series visits as there so much more to winning than merely spending money... But, I'm pretty sure that more so than ever, spending won't be hindered. And for guys like LaRussa and Stewart, that's like giving an endless amount of ammo to a professional sniper!
