Yesterday I wrote about how the Baltimore Orioles and other MLB teams could one day find themselves playing a shorter schedule of 154 games for varying reasons. As I said at the time, I’m not in favor of shortening the season. Commissioner Rob Manfred’s idea is that it would cut down on injuries. However I’m not sure that trimming eight games would do much, if anything at all in that sense.
However one aspect of the idea with which I do agree is to keep the World Series from going into November. Any world in which that is prevented is a decent one.
