| There is currently a proposal in Major League Baseball to do away with the three divisions in each league and instead have two leagues, the National League and American League with fifteen teams each. Teams within each league would play all teams in that league the same number of times during the season. For the play-offs there would be only one league winner and wild card teams would be determined from the next highest league finishers. Do you think this change to two leagues without divisions is a good idea or a bad idea? |
