Okay, this should do it.
- 18 teams, 1 subleague, 5/4/5/4
- 162 games, beginning the first Friday of April and ending the first Sunday of October (same length as MLB season)
- I accidentally set the All-Star Game to be a bit late, so it falls near the end of July
- My original specs called for a max homestand and road trip length of 10 games. I think that had to be relaxed when moving some things around, but it'll still be reasonable
- I hope you don't care too much about game start times, since I never know what people want there. All games start at 7:00 PM local time except Sundays, which are at 1:00 PM
Teams in divisions 1 and 3:
- play 20 games against each of 4 division opponents (10H/10A, 80 games total). These 20 games are split up in a variety of ways to make the total number of off days work - either 333344, 2233334, or 22223333, but always split evenly in terms of home and away games
- play 6 games against teams in divisions 2 and 4 (3H/3A, 48 games total)
- play 6 or 7 games against teams in the other 5-team division (34 games total)
Teams in divisions 2 and 4:
- play 26 games against each of 3 division opponents (13H/13A, 78 games total). These, by contrast, are all in the form 33333344.
- play 6 games against the other 14 teams (3H/3A, 84 games total)
I hope that all works to your liking, let me know if you have any issues. I tested it myself and it seems to be working fine, but you never know.
