With US population growth, and the growth of the overall world talent pool, there is some good evidence that MLB should actually expand if they want to improve the overall product on the field.


The sport itself isn't growing at the youth level though and the media coverage isn't growing.

How would adding teams improve the product? It would just water the talent down.

To some, that's a key component of the argument. Pitching staffs are loaded from top to bottom with 95+ mph arms. Expand, and watch a natural infusion of offense come back to the game. It's worked every other time in the history of MLB.
