So, let me get this straight. Now, the Rangers and Angels will be able to get more 'free wins' than they already get from Seattle and Oakland?
With Houston in that division, its going to be hard for the winner of the division to not finish with the overall best record in the AL.
let's hope. I hate sitting around not playing in October and watching inferior teams still playing. I don't really like playing the red sox, rays and jays 18 times each when a team like st Louis gets to play Houston, Pitt and the cubs 18 times each. Stl finishes with 90 wins in a horrible division and we finish with 97 wins in the BEST division and are home for the holidays.In 1-2 years there will be no more divisions. With 15 teams in a league, people will be playing a more balanced schedule I think.
What was the reason they did that???
