1.) Twitter Question (@Mike_K66): Should the MLB change their method of determining home field advantage?
Mike asked (albeit worded slightly different) if the MLB should adopt a different approach in home field advantage, particularly with MLB teams tanking now.
So I submitted an idea for an article to a writer today. I hope it gets used. It is about making a change to how Home Field Advantage is determined in baseball today or how to change the schedule to even the playing field. To stop rewarding teams for having weak opponents.

His recommendation was to change the selection to have a weighting based on strength of schedule, similar to college football.
