I wonder whether that's true. The baseball national TV values keep increasing with competiton from streamers (and eg Apple TV). But many of the local RSN deals have gone bad as the networks went bankrupt.
You'll maybe always have a few owners willing to spend like crazy to win (eg Cohen) but we've seen teams like the Padres really stop signing FAs when their TV deal collapsed.
