The new Cubs network will include 150 regular and about 30 spring training games, although a dozen Cubs regular season games remain reserved for national broadcasts. Marquee is on a bit of a roll, according to Sports Pro, picking up AT&T’s DirectTV satellite service and AT&T TV and U-Verse streaming offerings last month and landing a deal with Charter Communications in July.
