Every team will play their division rivals 12 times and every other league rival 6 times. All teams will play 18 interleague games.
This would be a good way to expand the league and still just keep the season as long as 162 games.
There are millions of talented players graduating high school and college. Maybe each team should hire more scouts to search for talent.
Think of it this way.
If this does happen, it can’t expand even further. A 32 team league would be perfect for MLB.
About the Brewers,
yeah they should keep them in the National League Central and put the new expansion team i call the Indianapolis Comets into the American League Central.
For the Athletics moving to Fremont, CA, why not just change their name to the California Athletics?
If I mail this idea to Major League Baseball, they might do it. Just look at how even the scheduling would be!!!
I just realized I made a mistake in the scheduling.
I said the teams would play their division rivals 12 times. It really should be 24 times. I counted the games and now it adds up to 162 games.
To Yankee Dude:
Why not let the Phillies play the Pirates 24 times in the Central Division? They’re both from Pennsylvania.
Putting Houston in the West Division. I did that to match the American League’s Texas Rangers, who are also in the West Division.
Brett Eibner has it all. Well, that's what his coach from the University of Arkansas had to say about the 6-foot 4-inch junior who was drafted by the Royals in the second round of the 2010 First-Year Player Draft.
