Alright, here it is.
* 18 teams - 4/5/4/5, 160 games
*
* Two subleagues, two divisions in each subleague
*
* Four-team divisions:
* 12 games against division opponents (6/6 - 18/18)
* 10 games against subleague opponents (4/6 or 6/4 - 24/26 or 26/24)
* 8 games against interleague opponents, with an additional two games against one of those nine (4/4, 6/4 or 4/6 - 38/36 or 36/38)
* Total of 160 games (80/80)
*
* Five-team divisions:
* 12 games against division opponents (6/6 - 24/24)
* 10 games against subleague opponents (4/6 or 6/4 - 20/20)
* 8 games against interleague opponents (4/4 - 36/36)
* Total of 160 games (80/80)
*
* All-star break is included - game is on schedule day 107, which is a Tuesday in July
*
* Teams play three two-game series per week, with an off day on either Monday, Wednesday or Friday. I believe that at least three games occur on each game day. Teams will always play on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
* Interleague games are spread evenly throughout the season, as those teams are played almost as often as in-conference teams.
* No road trips or homestands are longer than 12 games, and those lengths are sparse.
* The longest any team goes without an off day is 10 games.
*
* This schedule is one week longer than the MLB season at 27 weeks. The season is set to start during the last week of March, and will end around the beginning of October.
