I heard this on a talk radio show and was interested and thought this would be a great debate why do the MLB use division it should just be head to head.
I think this is interesting and think my be there on to something they should get rid of them because there may be a division like the Yanks one where the O's yanks and Sox would be in the playoffs but one gets butted out because only two per division and thats with the wild card. I think this would be a hole new game if it went head to head same with NFL

The divisions should stay. They will not do away with them.

Getting ride of them would be stupid. Better divisions make for better games in late Sept.

Yes you both have me butwhat if there is a division that has everyone under 500 and then there is the Yanks Sox Blue Jays and o's over 500 or with all more wins

But If we did the NL and AL head to head the play offs this year would be New York Boston Twins and Oakland yes that would be the same NL Cards Braves Stros and Dodgers but if they did that then they would have to add another spot for each league and that would be different. This year isn't a year that will help me prove my point but here 2003 AL Was Yanks Twins Oakland Sox AL would be Yanks Sox Oakland Mariners NL was Braves Marlins Cubs Giants NL would be Braves Giants Marlins Cubs same
and the best way to help me 2002 AL Was Yanks Angels Twins Oakland
Al Would be Yanks Oakland Angels Soxs or Seattle
NL Woud be the same 2001 is good two look your self One team can make the world of difference in MLB

This is stupid. Taking away divisions would ruin some of the traditions from baseball.

This is stupid. Taking away divisions would ruin some of the traditions from baseball. So would the DH, Wildcard, 7 game playoffs, etc. Sports are dynamic, and should change to make the game better. Unfortunately, many people equate better with higher ratings, so they increase offense, hamper defense, make more games, have longer seasons, etc. However, I think they should make the game have a little more parity, because when one division is 10 games behind the other two, it seems like they are having a problem.
