It looks like they own the regional rights for about half the MLB teams. Depending on when the deal gets finalized, I wouldn't be surprised to see them re-brand the FSN channels as ESPN Regional (or something similar) prior to the start of the baseball season.
The press release has June 30 as the closing date for the deal, so it might not be until next fall that the change happens.
