I've really enjoyed interleagtue play. The fact thatthe Jays and Ex[os were able to play a serries on the Canada Day weekend was fantastic! I saw most of the games in that series and enjoyed what I saw. I hope the proposed realignment isn't accepted, since, as you say, the formation of the Central Division took care of geographic realignment very nicely. ...

I sure haven't seen any serious improvement in the M's staff, with the possible exception of Bobby Ayala, who probably saw his job slipping further and further away in Seattle and closer and closer to Tacoma all the time. He's stepped it up a bit. Cruz Jr. was a great loss, indeed.

Why not simply place Tampa in the AL East, Detroit in the AL Central, Kansas City in the NL Central, and Arizona in the NL West? This provides the 14/16 league split, allows for the unbalanced schedule if you choose to go back to two divisions per league, and doesn't majorly mess things up. --- Msged/2 4.10 * Origin: Nerve Center - Source of the SPINAL_INJURY echo!
