It's looking like Roy Halladay may be starting for the Blue Jays on Friday. Since the swelling has gone down, he plans to throw today and tomorrow before determining for sure if he'll make his scheduled start.
Gibbons' thinks they should go back to a balanced schedule. I've always thought they should have balanced schedule, especially with a wild-card spot open. Hell, make each league one division and the 4 best teams make the playoffs. If you have a balanced schedule, divisions don't matter. Sure, the divisional rivalries will be gone, but by the end of the season I'm sick of seeing the Yankees or Devils Rays. Imagine being in the NL central where you have to watch your team play the Pirates and Cubs 64 times (or whatever amount it is). If they went back to a balanced schedule, they'd also have to scrap inter-league play, not that that is a bad thing.
