Ditto. I’m not sure how I feel about no inter league play. I’m so conflicted. I hated it when MLB did away with it, but now I’m kinda sad to lose it.

I missed what conferences were in the frick and Johnson though. I’m sure I’ll see it in writing soon.

You moved into heartland

Inter league is lame. IMO

I prefer interleague, but if eliminating it was necessary to reduce to 4 divisions then I am a fan. I am super pumped about having a couple powerhouses in my division. I think reducing the divisions should increase the competition of division races. Other than the Sun Belt which is a dog fight almost all other divisions have been decided with several leading by 20+ games. Seems like what I heard is a step in the right direction.

Wow, we move to the Johnson. Didn’t see that one coming. Like the plan and the time you took to put it together. I guess if I want another Frick title it has to be 2039!

Well done. Great job by Recte and the board. Thanks guys

Good stuff. Like the way the Atlantic panned out with Jacksonville coming back and Huntsville and Charlotte coming in. Also thrilled with the new schedule. It adds another level of strategy when you play the same 7 teams most of the time.

What is the breakdown of games in division and VS other division? never mind I can't count

Great work both on the podcast and by the board in getting all the details out there. Charlotte and Portland. Nice picks.

I just deleted my previous post because I see now that you stated the details will be released. Sorry for the extra post.

Really like the picks of Charlotte and Portland. As for my team, I'm very intrigued about joining a division with so many great teams right now. Will definitely have an impact on how I continue rebuilding.

I am curious as to how much thought was given to 19 as the right number of players to protect. With the influx in talent in the league, I wonder if that will result in a bunch of really good players being available. Not complaining at all, just curious if there was any analysis on the number of players to protect.

I really enjoyed listening to this and I would support announcements of similar stature receiving the same treatment. Excited to join the JL.
