Halladay better than Verlander?
You can certainly make the case.
I’m wondering how many inter-league games we need so that we can treat everything as one league and two conferences, like the NHL, NBA, and NFL do, with one award winner for the league. Those leagues have 20%-25% of inter-conference games.
MLB, currently, has 11% inter-league games. If they bump it up to 30 games from 18, to put it at 18.5% inter-league games, can we FINALLY treat it as 18.5% inter-conference games, and doing away with the two league designations? And, finally, allowing Halladay and Verlander to compete for the same award?
