IMO eventually they will have to. Media is trending more and more that way. I think sports will be one of the last holdouts, but eventually they will follow the market trends. It may take 20 years, but its gonna happen no doubt in my mind.
The last thing ESPN wants is for another player to come along and do it first. From a business standpoint you would have to take the short term hit on the bottom line to be first mover for the long run. There's no media outlet that can touch ESPN when it comes to sports content, but if a new player came along and offered a la carte sports streaming services, they could catch up quickly.

How would another company have the dough to pay for the rights for NFL, NBA, or MLB content and then make a profit with an a la carte service when competing against ESPN and their 100 million subscribers and billions of dollars in revenue under the current system?
