Realignment proposal

 

I got to thinking about this after skimming Starks article at the 4-letter network.  I guess I'm not that big an advocate for realignment since I pretty much like how things are set up for the Angels.  I do get annoyed by inter-league play since I hate watching the pitchers bat (yeah yeah I know there is always Mathis...)  But if I was in charge I think this is how I'd set it up.  It's basically geographical; some teams could easily be swapped.
