Each dot is one of MLB’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). MLB’s own 19.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where MLB's grants concentrate

MLB Advanced Media, L.P. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under H04N (Pictorial Communication, e.g. Television). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, MLB sits between Mixtron S.R.L. and Modern Flames, LLC..

MLB's three-year grant acceleration

MLB Advanced Media, L.P. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
