This change was a long time a'comin' in the minds of many. The Houston Astros are moving to the American League and will join the Texas Rangers in the AL West. As a longtime Rangers fan, I'm excited about this change. It will be nice to build a friendly in-state rivalry and have some division games that don't involved heading all the way out to the West Coast for games that start at 10 p.m.
Also, MLB is adding an extra Wild Card to each league. This is another welcome addition in my opinion.
