Why would you want to change leagues or divisions? Don't tell me you're one of those people who thinks life will be better if we weren't in the AL East? If so, stop being one of those people. 

I am one of those people who grew up when there was only two leagues and only two teams went to the World Series.  And, yes, baseball would be better if the oversized influence of money were reduced just a bit by the changes I suggested.  And there should be elimination of the unbalanced schedules where we end up playing divisional teams 19 times a year and play every team the same number of games.

Until the Davis contract I thought this was likely.  They we're extremely reluctant to sign anyone past this year.

Can Pete sell the team to Machado?

Estate tax not repealed but rises to a minimum of $11M, under new tax code going to vote.

Manny would have to agree not to flip the team to the NYYs.

That would be 1903 all over again.

Baltimore wound up waiting another 5 decades before getting another Major League team when the Browns moved to Maryland in 1954.

It was already going to $11 mm for married couples, before the new tax bill.   But that’s not helping the Angelos family with holding on to the Orioles.
