That brings up an interesting point, i know it's been talked about in regards to the NFL, but what do people think about re-seeding based on record once in the playoffs? Would be a bit more convoluted here because of the "play in game" whereas the NFL doesn't have that

With how unbalance MLB schedules are with divisional games, that would be a tough sell. With that said, the fact that the 2 best records came from the same division and for a while a 3rd nearly made the playoffs, is impressive, to say the least. Then again you had 4 90 game winning clubs in the AL East which is equally impressive.

To me if you get rid of divisions within the conference then you can more easily talk about re-seeding. With divisions I think it will always be a tough sell.
