This was what he was talking about. Rosenthal wrote that back in Feb it looks like. The Radical plan was what Will was talking about. Anything is possible with Selig at the helm.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
One of the dumb things about that idea is the Great Lakes and Midwest distinction. There are 6 Great Lakes cities, yet only 3 are being included in the Great Lakes division. And how you separate the Red Sox and Yanks yet put the Cubs and Sox in the same division is beyond retarded. I hope Will was just speculating. I only caught the 2nd part of his interview, so this is catching me really off guard.

It wasn't talked about a whole lot to be honest. However he did bring it up and it surprised me as well. He also mentioned that if they went to that alignment that interleague play would an all year thing. Not just a few weeks of the season.
What surprises me even more is that the Cubs and White Sox are in the same division in two of the three proposals in Rosenthal's article. Makes you wonder a little.
