Expanding it to 3 games is dumb too. Already enough incentive to win your division. 3 games series makes the incentive too extreme and would be another week tacked onto the end.

WC should be a 3 games series at the better team's stadium. No travel. That's your incentive for WC1. Other than that, don't fuck with the postseason. 14 teams is way too many. That's half the damn league.
Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -
I could see expanding the amount of teams if you shorten part of the season. Otherwise, no. Only modification I would make is the LDS should be 7 games.

That can reward beating up on a shitty division even more than a high seed.I think the way it is now is the most fair advantage for division winners and doesn’t completely gut the WC’s chances.Post edited by DewieCox on0

A few things
I believe that the MLB playoff field should be expanded. 162 games is a slog, and there are meaningless games beyond count. Now, we also have a 'tanking problem' because 80% of the league knows they have no shot by April 30th.
Even non-baseball fans admit that playoff baseball is fun to watch with a lot on the line. More teams doesnt mean worse. The first round of the NHL playoffs, 16 teams, is one of the best things going.
The problem is, there just isnt enough room with a 162 game schedule and the World Series kissing November.0 -

First thing I thought was, awesome, the Yankees will get to pick the Twins every year! Also, they'll never miss the playoffs.
Sounds weird. Haven't read too much. Wild card should definitely be best of 3, at minimum. Would be a long playoff and not sure my health can handle that.0 -
And a bye isn't a benefit to the #1 seed either. Baseball just doesn't work like that. If they did it's also another reason to lengthen the LDS to 7 games.0

Next thing you know, Manfred is going to tell us pitchers won't have to bat.Alright, alright, alright!

Anyone think that they released that expanding playoff crap to get everyone to talk about something else?0 -
