Agree 100% on the 7 game idea. No playoff baseball series should be fewer than 7

games.

The additional problem with decreasing the sample size is your division becomes too important. The NL East and AL East are projected to have 5 of the top 12 teams in baseball (per Frangraphs) and you'd easily have deserving (or even worse for playoff ratings, large market teams) missing out.

MLB is countering by agreeing to pro-rated salaries...with a shortened season (50-60 games)

82 gives us at least half the season

60 games is what 10-12 starts by your pitchers? 60 game is not enough

50 games is the equivalent of the NFL saying there would be a 5 game season.

If they want a 60 game season they need to expand the playoffs
