The Norfolk Admirals? The Portland Lumberjacks? The Monterrey Conquistadores? The San Juan Islanders?Or will everyone just know them as the Washington Lame Ducks? I can picture it already: The Las Vegas Newtons If that were to be the case would the tickets be called WayneChecks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luisart47 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 If they move to Las Vegas they definitively can't play in the NL East, so will they move them to the AL West and bring back the Brewers to the AL Central so that we keep with 16 teams vs 14 teams format?

There's already a 16-14 team format, this is merely Washington's first attempt at screwing up a NL franchise, having fluffed up twice in the AL.

luisart47 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Yes I know, but today it's NL-16, AL-14. If they move to Las Vegas they can't play in the NL East where Washington stands as of today. The NL West has 5 teams and none can be moved. But the AL West has 4 teams, so Las Vegas fits there, but there can't be a 15-15 format.So that's why I proposed to clean the mess by bringing back the Brewers to the AL so it can be a 16-14 format as it is today, but this time AL-16, NL-14. Like the old days when the AL had 14 and the NL had 12 (before the Rockies-Marlins and the DBacks-DRays expansions). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 if the Nats are to go to Vegas, i can see them being moved to the AL West and then having the Pirates move to the NL East...anyone else agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luisart47 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Yes I agree, the Pirates could be moved to the Nats spot. But still that would leave the 15-15 impossible format. So do you agree to bring back the Brewers as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee. Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Ahhh. Gotcha.Just keep 6 teams in the NL West, move Pittsburgh into the East. Easier that way, rebuilds a nifty rivalry with Philly. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 if the Nats are to go to Vegas, i can see them being moved to the AL West and then having the Pirates move to the NL East...anyone else agree? If they move to Vegas and thus go into the AL west another NL team has to move into the AL. The leagues must have a even number of teams (even number as in 2, 4, 6, 8, not even as in equal) If just the Montington Natpos move to the AL then that leaves an odd number of teams in each league and thus 1 team would have 3 or 4 days off in a row.

Or there would be one interleague series going on at all times. --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBGKon Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 why does the MLB have to have 16 teams in one league and 14 in another.....can anyone help my figure out why a split 15-15 league would not work??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yh Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Vegas fits in better with the NL West teams, so I'd send them to the West and move the Pirates to the NL East. Sending Vegas to the AL West and Milwaukee back to the AL Central would be a feasible alternative, however I think that Vegas would have better rivalries in the NL West, especially with Phoenix, Denver and San Diego.

Joshawaggie Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 And if anyone wants to come up with a way to put Toronto in the AL Central, I'm listening why, so you can lose the divison to the Twins every year? @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcgd Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 move cleveland to the east, toronto to the central...BAM...your golden and more than likely, 2nd place in the Central every year instead of third Even though this makes no sense what-so-ever, its your only chance.
