[情報] Astros headed to American League
The ownership change of the Astros has been hanging in the balance for
months, as Jim Crane is awaiting approval to buy the franchise from Drayton
McLane. Wednesday, Peter Gammons of MLB Network reported that the change is
expected to be made in November. OK, that's fine. Not overly newsworthy,
really. But then, Gammons added something that very much does matter, for all
of baseball. The Astros are expected to be moved to the American League.
This has been rumored for some time, but never really reported as something
that will definitely happen. Numerically, the move makes sense. The National
League has 16 teams; the American League 14. The NL Central has six; the AL
West four. Moving the Astros to the AL West makes sense, and they would have
a natural division rivalry with the Texas Rangers -- albeit very lopsided in
the present.
But look a bit deeper, and the move means the entire face of baseball is
changing. With 15 teams in each league, that means there will be interleague
play throughout the season. This also points to Bud Selig's plan of expanded
playoffs coming to fruition as well, because there's no better time to do so
than when there's already a big change. From there, I would hope that the
league would look into making the designated hitter rule uniform -- meaning
either both or neither league uses it. I've argued in the past this needs to
happen.
Stay tuned, but if this report is accurate, baseball is about to undergo
major logistical changes. Also, don't expect the move to be made quickly
enough to have it in place for 2012. The most likely outcome is the Astros
move and the playoffs expand before 2013.
