I know it's the Raiders
But could you imagine a player doing that on Belichicks watch

Just run from the sidelines to protect an oppenent and manhandle a ref

Okay so would the division winners be seeded 1-4? And then the 1-seed would face the wild card winning team with the worst record? 2-seed the 2nd best record, etc etc.

Could this mean we could have a Red Sox/Yankees World Series?
i believe so...

what does this do to the DH then?

i would think
I don't hate it. I would like them to focus more on pace of play. But if the player's want more off days (and they would get one a week), and less travel, this could be a way to get that. And MLB can use it as leverage to get some stuff they want, like the pitch clock and pace of play rules.

Here's a definite positive. All teams within a division would have the same schedule. So Dirt won't be able to bitch.

Oh wait, of course he will because he'll be pissed that the Red Sox play a team in September as opposed to July. Scratch that.

Presumably it would be league-wide.

I would like that idea. Granted some pitchers are pretty good hitters and I love seeing them hitting homers!

I think it's clickbait.
Whether it's click-bait or not, the question is whether or not you believe the source in saying that it is being discussed.

We know Manfred is considering expansion. We know MLBPA wants more off days/less travel/fewer games.

Do people usually refer to stories they deem credible and newsworthy as "clickbait?"
