There's another POV on the competitiveness matter. Look at the MLB standings from the last five years. You'll see that two or three teams end the season above .600, and two or three teams below .400. The rest are all bunched between .400 and .600. How is that not competitive? Look at other major sports. You've got teams ending the season at .206. That is not competitive. (OK, so the '03 Tigers weren't competitive.)

I guess that if the baseball season only lasts from October 1 to October 31 for you, you could find reason to gripe.
