I know it will never happen in a million years but I always wanted baseball to have a round-robin 174 game schedule with every team playing each other six times. Have the two teams with the best overall record play each other in the World Series. It would be the best way of determining a champion in a sport that has notoriously volatile results.

That will never happen.
Not to mention a Yankees -Red Sox series does not and will not have the same economic and interest level of say a Red Sox - Padres series or a Yankees - Brewers series.

Too much volatility for that to be true. If you were lucky enough to have all 6 of your games against the Cubs during the few weeks before the All Star break while Fowler was on the DL, how is that equal to a team that played all of their games when the Cubs were at full strength. Same thing can be applied to teams that play only contenders after the trade deadline vs playing teams that dumped salaries.
