Here's a take:
Play your ass off in the play offs! If you're the best, prove it on the field. These weren't one and done games.
If one of the "best teams" giving up 6 runs in one out in the first inning should make me feel bad and demand change - something is wrong!
Do like NASCAR - have a regular season Champion so they can be recognized - and then move on and crown a World Champion.
It's all about the money - look for ways to have more games and generate revenue. Create "Wild Card" teams, change the format and go from a sudden death game to the best 2 out of 3, heck make it 7 out 13. Follow the money!
