4. MLB is considering some changes to the league’s playoff format. The first proposal is to add two more playoff teams to each league. In the new format, the team with the best record in each league would receive a bye and go directly to the Division Series. The Division winner with the second best record would then get to decide what wild card team they prefer to play in round one on live TV. Those wildcard matchups would be best of 3 series, and would all take place in the Division winner’s home park. (LARRY BROWN SPORTS)
