Regular season games are not the huge money maker on a national basis for networks. Playoff games bring the kind of ratings that national networks crave. However, regular season games are highly valued by the regional sports networks, as we have seen soaring revenues for every MLB team over the past few decades.

That inventory of games can be monetized in ways other than with national TV networks. When the playoffs are expanded, the format is likely to include three-game series hosted entirely by division winners or by the higher seeded wild card team s , while one or two teams with the best records in each league have a brief first round bye before hosting the next round.

The layoff caused by a bye is something that MLB has tried to avoid, but money will overcome that issue. Various formats have been floated, from a team playoff to the 14 teams proposed by MLB owners prior to the current season. I would suggest 12 teams initially, adding two more if and when MLB adds two expansion teams. The qualifying threshold for post season play has plummeted since , when the Detroit Tigers were the last team to win a World Series by winning the pennant and advancing straight to the World Series.

Ten times in history, teams have won plus games and not even qualified for playoffs. But teams who are on the bubble, but not quite up to the current wild card standards Detroit Tigers?
