Crazy thought but if you want it to mean something give the players more time off and make it an ALL-STAR SERIES. A three game series for home field advantage in the World Series.
They take enough pitchers and players already to play three games any ways, and you can slightly expand the rosters to ensure no stars miss the game. Everybody will get in at least one game and pitchers cannot pitch on back to back days.
Stop regular season play on the Tuesday night.
Have the home run derby Thursday Night, Game 1 Friday night, Game 2 Saturday night, and if necessary Game 3 on Sunday Afternoon.
Resume games on the following Wednesday.
This would help solve Maritime and Dusty's complaints where all the best players are not represented, and that the games are not treated like real games.
