Turner will be paying MLB $535 million a year for seven years, a 65% increase over the previous contract. The deal will create a Tuesday game of the week, which doubles the number of regular-season games from the previous deal. The official announcement also calls for MLB games on "additional WarnerMedia platforms," likely meaning HBO Max's upcoming ad-supported tier (https://deadline.com/2020/09/warnermedia-major-league-baseball-reach-7-year-rights-extension-at-reported-3-75b-will-hbo-max-benefit-1234583488/).
