I once read that the more games a sport has in a season, the less important each individual game becomes. They were trying to explain why individual regular season games in football are more important/interesting than NBA and NBA games are more interesting than MLB games.
Since I think regular season MLB games are a snooze fest, I would shorten regular season to 140 games from Apr 20 to Sep 20. Also that way less interference with college/pro football. Of course this would never happen because of loss revenue for everyone involved. Oh well, in my OOTP universe I play a 144 game schedule.
