The Yankees and Mets already have one of the better rivalries in MLB due to having a pair of ravenous fan bases loyal to their clubs. And that is just from a couple of series per year. However, playing each other 13 times a year if they were in the same division might make Yankees vs. Mets even bigger than Yankees vs. Red Sox and Mets vs. Braves.

With MLB striving for parity, commissioner Rob Manfred could push for a salary cap in the new CBA but insider Ken Rosenthal opposes the idea.

Once again, Manfred and MLB are putting a quick buck ahead of what's best for baseball and the fans who love it.

The Minnesota Twins are no longer for sale after a 10-month exploratory process, according to executive chair Joe Pohlad.
