:::::I like these ideas too. I very breifly touched on the interleague part in the season structure section, but now that I look back at it, I see that that really needs some expansion. I'll get on adding some more of these ideas. Todd, let me know what you think of the steroid portion so far.

I'm curious, what other types of things should go into this page here? For example, the comparable Wiki page has the league standings from the previous year. Is that the kind of thing we want to keep here on CZ? What about the sections about the rules re: players' uniforms or the MLB television blackout policy? Do we make sub-pages for this stuff? Or should we be ignoring it completely? What do others think? Joshua Knapp 18:36, 7 February 2008 (CST)

I think having a history of league standings would be something that we could fit onto the Catalogs subpage. I think there definately needs to be a section discussing the steroid/HGH scandal. --Todd Coles 09:41, 8 February 2008 (CST)
Those aren't bad, but for the catalogs subpage... I'm not sure how to do that, I'm not even sure I've seen one here yet, would you mind helping me get that started? Joshua Knapp 10:05, 8 February 2008 (CST)
I would also suggest content on expansion outside the US; the difference between the AL and NL on designated hitters; and the recent move towards regular season inter-league play. I think it's vital that the article talk about the color bar in the Majors and Jackie Robinson's historic role in breaking it. The history section should also contain at least a brief mention of the professional Negro League, which could then, like the Minor Leagues section, be split off into separate articles. I'll help however I can. Shawn Goldwater 10:13, 8 February 2008 (CST)
I like these ideas too. I very breifly touched on the interleague part in the season structure section, but now that I look back at it, I see that that really needs some expansion. I'll get on adding some more of these ideas. Todd, let me know what you think of the steroid portion so far.
James Perry has been doing a lot of Catalog work for the Olympics article Olympic Games/Catalogs. Steroids looks like a good start, I don't have time right now to delve too deep into it but will give it more attention when I can. --Todd Coles 11:07, 8 February 2008 (CST)
