We could always contract the league and get rid of the Rays and Marlins. That leaves 7 teams per division. Florida is for spring training anyway.  |
Since we're playing Commissioner.... I like this idea. Eliminate two of the spring training teams (Miami & Tampa Bay), and move the Arizona franchise to Havana, Cuba.
Reorganize the 28 teams into 2 leagues of 2 divisions with 7 teams each; the North, South, Central, and West:
North; Toronto, NY Mets, NY Yankees, Boston, Philadelphia Phillies, and Pittsburg Pirates.
South; Houston, Texas, Havana, Atlanta, Washington, Baltimore, and Kansas City.
Central; Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago White Sox, Chicago Cubs, Minnesota, Milwaukee, and St. Louis.
West; LA Angels, LA Dodgers, San Diego, San Francisco, Oakland, Colorado, and Seattle.
Top two teams in each division advance to the playoffs, and are seeded according to record 1-4 to play two 7 game series; ALDS & ALCS. This would eliminate the most annoying of World Series, the Subway Series or Bay Area series etc....
