Baseball wants to increase the playoffs

get

more teams involved

( i am all 4 it)

here's my best:

2 leagues

15 teams each

no divisions

top 7 make the playoffs

1 gets a bye (and home field thru-out)

7 vs. 2
6 vs. 3 { best of 3}
5 vs. 4

re-seed based on regular season

1 plays lowest
other 2 standing face off

best of 5


League Championship series

best of 7


World Series

best of 9

i know....

shorten season to 154 games

open

march 20

with "bad weather cities" on the road

i know (again)

15 teams in each league?

do the math...

you either expand to 16 per

or balance thru inter-league play.


PSSS: i am the 3rd guinness brother

Brilliant!
