MLB looking at strategy of deliberate tanking

[southsider2k5]

But there are almost always shades of grey...which would you penalize of those six NL teams?

The Brewers, Reds, Rockies, Padres, Braves and Phillies?

 

What about the Marlins when they fired Guillen and traded half their expensive new acquisitions to Toronto?

 

The Cubs, Astros, Twins and Mets should be penalized as well when their efforts were largely successful?

 

Let's not forget the Red Sox in last place 3/4 years, the Padres, the Mariners, etc.

 

 

I imagine most here could never come close to an agreement...and, for as many fans who are discouraged by games against no-name lesser competition, just as many love it when the White Sox beat up on teams and put up huge offensive numbers in those games.

 

Only if you needlessly try to complicate things.

Which teams would you currently cite, or cite specifically for their 2015 seasons?

Snake the draft for non-playoff teams. Worst record picks 1st in odd rounds but 20th in even rounds.

 

I like that much better than a lottery. Blah.
