Radical Realignment Now: My Plan puts the Mets and Yankees in the same division because SANITY

Now that all the teams will play all the other teams, let’s stop with tradition entirely and fix the game.  I propose radical realignment, and TV put on a Northeast game and a West Game every day and the other divisions can whatever themselves.

NORTHEAST (aka Ruth):  Mets, Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Blue Jays

SOUTHEAST (aka Ripken):  Nationals, Orioles, Braves, Miami, Tampa

WEST (aka Robinson):  Dodgers, Angels, Padres, Giants, Mariners

SOUTHWEST (dunno): stay with me here – THE LAS VEGAS ATHLETICS, Diamondbacks, Rockies, Rangers, Astros

CENTRAL (aka Banks):  Cubs, White Sox, Brewers, Cardinals, Royals

OTHERS (aka Celemente):  Tigers, Twins, Guardians, Reds, Pirates

I mean, why wouldn’t you do this?

Took me two minutes and it’s pretty perfect.  If I listed a team twice and left someone out you can make fun of me.

You can give the divisions cooler names if you want.  Let’s go Old Time Hockey and have stuff like Ruth,  Robinson, Aaron, Ripken, Banks, Celemnte etc…

2023 Mets Schedule

The Mets must be using “Mailing List B” which only goes to the MSM and not the bloggers (that seems to be used when one of the Senior Suits handles things as opposed to the lower level guys that handle the day to day).  Anyway, I have acquired the 2023 Mets Schedule, not that I plan to attend any games, baseball is boring.

Let’s see…

The season starts in March.  I guess that’s a good use of a Miami series…it won’t be as boring as usual, and might make a good road trip for fans!  Maybe I WILL go to a game!

That weekend at-Boston series in July is enticing.

This is also the debut of the Play Everyone In Both Leagues schedule, and to be fair, it feels a lot less interleaguey than I thought.

I imagine the Mets sent out a press release with details about this schedule but I didn’t get it, so if baseball wants to keep its marketing a secret, that’s fine by me.
