That broad of a range in acceptable number of games gives lots of leeway, but I'll have to play with some combinations to find what will work well. I've been thinking of 131, so I may check that first, though something in the low-140s might work better.
However, with an odd number of games as this case must have with an odd number of interleague game, it will be exceedingly difficult to keep that exact number if in the future the league had different numbers of teams. It would probably be easy enough to keep within a few games, but I should warn you not to expect
precisely the number for whatever works in this case to work for say 12-team or 16-team leagues with different configurations.
EDIT: I should also mention that with an odd number of games teams must play either 1 or 3 more games either home or away so those splits will not be even.
