Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 2358021, member: 1969"] A few comments: 1. You don't need 32 teams for the plan. 30 teams would work, a few divisions of 8, a few divisions of 7. Baseball has long operated at times with leagues of different sizes. But if you need to add a team please add Montreal. 2. I don't like your plan. I like the current system** in that it still has less than all other sports (33% vs say 50%+ in NHL and NBA), and also puts a premium in winning your division which was one of the initial issues with the wildcard system. Now you have a real incentive to win the division so first place does matter if there is a close race. ** I would make two changes to the playoffs. Best of 3 Wildcard Series - (Tues to Thurs, no days off), start next series on Friday. Only one day off per 7 game series. If teams must travel coast to coast have a late afternoon game on travel day. [/QUOTE]
