Wouldn't it make more sense to chop off some of those meaningless regular season games for most teams and give them a shot at playoff action with far greater fan engagement and revenue for owners?

Yes it would make too much god damned sense.
MLB does nothing that makes sense. The last sport to invoke replay review and it was terribly managed from the start.
The divisions are horribly arranged.
The AL/NL rule differences are….huh?
Then to top it off you have had a clear pattern of umpire deficiency and despite the proven tech to rectify it have done…absolutley nothing.
They continue to tarnish and dilute their game and honestly if I wasn’t a lifelong hardcore dedicated for life fan, I’d have a hard time seeing how a new fan of the sport could accept these deficiencies.
