Guardians come out with new TV deal for 2025 season

If you were waiting throughout the offseason on a TV deal for the Cleveland Guardians, well, there is finally some clarity. The Guardians announced on Tuesday morning the inaugural season of CLEGuardians.TV, in which fans will be able to watch the team throughout the 2025 season.

The team is officially moving onto a streaming option as the main way to watch games, in which they are calling it CLEGuardians.TV.

The price for the entire season is $99.99, or you could go the $19.99 monthly route as well. You will be able to stream it across any device, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and TVs. If you are a season ticket holder, well, you are in luck, as the Guardians sent out emails to season ticket holders saying how they will offer a special discount at just $49.99 for the season. The discount code will come at a later date.

The team also announced that they will announce cable options the closer we get to Opening Day. Different negotiations are still taking place. But according to Guardians on-field reporter Andre Knott, it is expected that DirecTV members will have access to CLEGuardians.TV.

Adding to the list of changes, the Guardians will be moving forward without pregame shows on the road. This is a drastic change for most diehard fans, as there will only be a 15-minute postgame show for non-home games. It gets a little better for home games as there will be a 30-minute pregame show along with the usual 15-minute postgame show.

The best news is that most of the faces you see on the broadcast will remain the same, with Matt Underwood and Rick Manning in the booth and Al Palowski as the main host on pre and postgame shows.

Some new faces that you will see include a handful of former Cleveland Indians players like Jason Kipnis, Cody Allen, Chris Gimenez, Ben Broussard, Austin Jackson, and Nick Goody. If you are a Cavs fan, you will also recognize Cayleigh Griffin on select broadcasts.

With Spring Training just 9 days away, it would be good timing to get the package if you plan on watching any games from Goodyear, as the team announced seven games will appear on TV. The Guardians are just one of five teams that the MLB will handle its distribution of broadcasts in the 2025 season.
