I wrote a long, well thought out post about the three division winners and the next two best teams making the playoffs, with the teams being ranked 1-5 based on point totals, but it disappeared on me. I’m lazy, so I’ll summarize.

In the AL, It would add even more excitement to these final weeks, if the rules allowed the wild card teams to reel in the white socks, and steal the third seeding.

In the NL, it is a shame the two best teams (based on points) are locked into position 1 and 4, while team a like the Brewers are locked into second place.
