Baseball's rules are collapsing on themselves.

Yes but they play an unbalanced schedule with more games against your division. They need to have a balanced schedule with equal teams in each league. - Krusty Oct 8, 07:23 4
- Only 7 NL teams won 83+ games this season. So, the balance isn't there across the league. -- nm - David Oct 8, 07:26
- This year even flies in the face of that as the Pirates and Cubs are in the best division...so - Jim Oct 8, 07:25 2
  - Yeah, I would expect the Mets or Dodgers to run up a huge total given how awful the bottom of their divisions were. - Will Hunting Oct 8, 07:41
  - It's just one year. I would need to see the numbers from multiple years to see if it does matter. - Krusty Oct 8, 07:29
