Unless those home games involve teams signed with an NBC Sports or AT&T RSN. Example tonight: Philadelphia at Arizona is the away team coverage from NBC Sports Philadelphia. Did either Disney or Sinclair already pull Fox Sports coverage from MLB netwotk after The All Star Break?

Fewer Home Game Broadcasts on MLB

I'd speculate this may have to do with the Dish Network / Fox Sports Net retransmission dispute. That deal expired a week after the All-Star break.
Don't forget that MLB owns the rights to all of the games. They can show what ever they want on MLB Network.
And on MLB.TV, both home and away feeds, with the exception of the YouTube freebies offered twice a week.
Those haven't been blocked for me so far. I've also been able to watch the home team feed when Fox or TBS has the game.

The Dish/Disney dispute may be the reason why some areas may not see MLB games.

Or the Dish Meredith dispute may be the reason why some areas may not see MLB Games.

You misunderstood my post, I think. I was adding to Don's observation that MLB can show any game it wants. I assumed he was talking about the network, so I added that the streaming service, MLB.TV, can also carry any game, both feeds. The exception being the two games a week that are being offered free of charge on YouTube.
