october (ie, playoff) baseball scheduling is getting worse and worse every year.

Posted by tRuMaN (aka Truman) Oct 13 '09, 11:56

it shouldnt take a freakin month to complete the playoffs.

and the fact that the schedule will allow the yankmes to use a 3 man rotation is a travesty.

As I said below without reading your IM: your last point is what I hate about the MLB playoffs. -- nm - nubby Oct 13, 12:12

    - They should play day games and travel at night. Take maybe one day off per series. -- nm - nubby Oct 13, 12:13 4

        I've long been a proponent of day baseball, and make no bones about wanting a good product over a popular one. - nubby Oct 13, 12:19 2

        (Fuck the business model.) (Good idea, I've always said I care more about who wins the regular season than the postseason.) (The 5 is from the regular -- nm - season.) -- nm - nubby Oct 13, 12:25
- i'm guessing its a tv/ratings issue - tRuMaN Oct 13, 11:59 4
  - then why do they have the freakin' games end at 1 am?! -- nm - Beaker Oct 13, 12:01 2
    - I think the problem is that the schedule is so crowded at this time of year. - decline Oct 13, 12:22
    - cause it only bumps the cheap reruns, and not the highly rated new episodes. -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 13, 12:09
  - yup. -- nm - znufrii Oct 13, 11:59
