Nice. Grace is gonna be an analyst for Marquee.

Good to have him back in the fold. But apparently he will continue doin' DBacks games.

I dont know how he will balance the two.

Wasn't Grace in line to be on Cubs broadcast team years ago before all his legal issues?

It is the YES model of having a whole bunch of different people so we don't focus on what a goober David DeJesus is. Have 15 guys do 12 games each this year, and pick the 4-5 best next year. Plus there is going to be a lot of studio crap that needs talking heads.

This is going to be a Cub myth creating machine on a level that would make WGN blush

Will be interesting to see how many old games they televise. It's not like they have a treasure trove of successful teams like the Yankees do. That said, I would rather watch a shitty Cubs game from the 1950s before watching a minute of Ryan Dempster.

That's rich coming from the team that has Bill Melton on post game. Many here never saw him play.

I see marquee is trying to scrub the internet of negativity in advance of its launch.

Welcome marquee mult. Don't let Frank bully you away.

Bill Melton has been doing Sox pre/post game work on Comcast/NBC Sports (15 years) longer than he actually played for the Sox (8 years).
