That should mean a lot more money for the league and would grab the attention of a lot more casual fans like me, instead of waiting every few decades to see our favorite team in the post season

I dont think there was ever meant to be playoffs. In the old days there were two 7 teams leagues. You played the other 6 teams 144 times (24 times each) to see who was the best. The two winners would playoff in the World Series. Im sure if we looked it up they were teams who rarely ever won the pennant.
