A Mets-Yankees-Red Sox super division sounds crazy. Until you think about it ...

The article discusses MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred's latest proposal to reorganize the league's structure. Manfred is considering adding two new teams, potentially in cities like Nashville, Salt Lake City, Raleigh, Portland, and Montreal. This would bring the total number of teams to 32. The article suggests that Manfred is "taking aim at the old league structure" and renewing the debate between traditional and reform factions in baseball. The proposal includes the possibility of creating a "super division" featuring the New York Mets, New York Yankees, and Boston Red Sox, which would be a significant departure from the current league setup. The article portrays Manfred as someone who enjoys "throwing ideas out into the universe" to generate publicity, rather than necessarily putting forward serious, well-considered proposals. It remains to be seen whether this realignment plan will gain traction or if it is simply another attention-grabbing idea from the commissioner.
