Do you think MLB would benefit but be realigning divisions by salary and region?

MLB Playoffs Since 1995
* 1/3 of the League or top 10 in payroll wins 2/3 of the playoff spots about 5 per season. (50% playoff rate)
* 2/3 of the League fights for the 3 remaining playoff spots per season. (15% playoff rate)
* 28 teams total went to the World Series from 1995-2008.
* 3 teams were not in the top 50% of payroll for that year
* 25 teams were top 50%
* 89% of teams who made the World Series were in the top 15 of payroll.
