We could opt to continue this method and I would document such in the new constitution or we could opt to reset usage after game 163 so teams begin the wild card game on even footing.
As far as the starting pitcher is concerned if we reset after game 163 the same pitcher could start game 163 and game 1 of the wild card series for the team that lost game 163.
This is a bit unrealistic but because of the possibility of having the 2nd best record in the league and being forced to play in this game I'm contemplating it. I don't like to complicate the rules so the easiest thing to do is keep the status quo but if we went with resetting after 163 we could make a rule that if the team would have been eliminated from the playoffs they can't bring their ace back until game 3 but if they would have been the division winner with a win they could bring that pitcher back in game 1.
Just my thoughts. This message board is not for voting it's for giving opinion. If you have a strong reason you want to see one or the other, or if you think you have a better idea let's discuss is here and I'll call for a vote once the discussion dies out.
