I don't think the divisions are fair. You have teams like Minnesota and Texas that have to travel through two time zones for half of their division games while teams in the AL East don't travel through any time zone. Same thing with Houston, St. Louis and Chicago in the NL West. The best thing they could do is add two expansion teams in the South, I'm thinking Nashville and Charlotte which are both bigger markets and far enough away from other teams where there would be minimal complaining about taking away viewers and then go to the NFL format with divisions with six four team divisions. AL West - Angels, A's, Mariners, Diamondbacks AL North - White Sox, Twins, Indians, Royals AL East - Blue Jays, Red Sox, Yankees, Tigers AL South - Orioles, Rays, Rangers, new Nashville team NL West - Padres, Giants, Dodgers, Rockies NL North - Cubs, Cardinals, Reds, Brewers NL East - Phillies, Mets, Pirates, Nationals NL South - Braves, Marlins, Astros, new Charlotte team Season starts in late March or early April. You play 54 games (18 each) against teams in your own division. You play 72 games (6 each) against teams in your own league. You play 24 games (3 each against two divisions not in your league on a rotating basis.) 18 vs Chicago, Cincinnati and St. Louis (9 home, 9 away) 6 vs San Diego, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Colorado, Philadelphia, New York, Pittsburgh, Washington, Atlanta, Florida, Houston, New Charlotte team (3 home, 3 away for each) 3 vs the 4 AL North teams at home (Chicago, Minnesota, Cleveland and Kansas City) and 3 vs the 4 AL South teams on the road (Baltimore, Tampa, Texas, New Nashville team) Schedule would be the same the next year only they would play the AL East at home and the AL West on the road. Schedule the next year would be the AL North on the road and AL South at home. Schedule the next year would be AL East on the road and AL West at home. That's a 150 game schedule. Playoffs would be 8 teams in each league. 1 vs 8 2 vs 7 3 vs 6 4 vs 5 Three game series in the quarterfinals Five game series in the semifinals Seven game World Series Too bad it will never happen.
