Playoff Size

[St. Louis Sting]

I propose that all playoffs, starting with the 2016 MLB season, have 6 teams instead of 8. The two teams with the best records will receive first round byes, with the caveat that two teams from the same division cannot both have byes.

This change will put more emphasis on the regular season and limit the possibility of teams with sub-.500 records making the playoffs. This proposal will require 7 votes to pass

In the event this passes, will the fantasy regular season be extended? Or will all sports start going to 2 week playoff matchups?

[St. Louis Sting]

They would still be 3 week playoff matchups.

Round 1:
BYE #1
BYE #2
#3 v. #6
#4 v. #5

Round 2:
BYE #1 v. Winner #4/#5
BYE #2 v. Winner #3/#6

Round 3:
Winners from round 2

[Jeff (Haze)]

Yeah, it checks out...
