If every team played the 19 league opponents one series home and one away, that would add up to 114 games. That could be stretched out to exactly 120 (I think) by making a few 4-game series, and then in the end the offdays would be about as frequent as current MLB. Adding many offdays would make the schedule longer than it sounds like you want and would probably play havoc with the scheme I use to layout series two per week. Is that acceptable?
No All-Star Break?
The end result would be similar to (just shorter than) this 40-team, 152-game schedule: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...448#post842448
That one is about 30 more games than you want since there are 8 games per opponent rather than 6-7. Figured you saw that, but just in case...  Your request, if you are happy with what I am envisioning, does not sound too tough. |
Ya there is an all star break, half way through the season, i guess three days long.
I'm thinking since it's 114 games, why not have an extra game for each divisional opponet or soemthing. I mianly jsut want to avoid the one game series that the game makes in september, very annoying.
