156 is probably ideal for interleague or no interleague. The difference is that 156 is a multiple of 3, which is ideal for making sure most of your series are 3-game sets. The reason primarily 3-game sets are ideal is because you don't end up with off days on some weekends. And you don't want to have too many 4-game sets because when you pair those with 3-game sets then you usually go at least a week to 10 days without an offday.

158 is not impossible, it just leaves you with a couple of random games to assign somewhere.

Give me 3 or 4 days and I can probably put together a 156-gamer with no interleague. I already sort of know the series blocks, it's just a matter of actually piecing them together throughout the calendar.

Once I have that in place, then I could probably shuffle some of it around to accommodate interleague.
