2. I partly agree with Timmy
The players should be payed for the games they play. There's no doubt about that. I don't think they have footballs issue. The question is whether there is a World Series champion in those 2 new spots? Maybe. The wild card has won the world series 4 times, so I guess it's possible. It's basically making the 163'd game an annual affair. The extra games will bring excitement to 2 more cities, but is that helpful to the game besides the cash? I disagree with Timmy about being deserving. If the playoff spot is there, then the team is deserving.

I don't think baseball should weigh money more the effect on the game. The current system with the occasional play in game is great.
