Is there any logical reason that Milwaukee, an original AL team, didn't move back?
in reality, Milwaukee was a NL city to start, way back when with the Braves. The Brewers were in the AL because they were originally the Seattle Pilots, who moved to Mil after one season in Seattle (Pilots were the team mainly detailed in Jim Bouton's great book Ball Four)
So while I agree that Houston should not be in the West, the move the the AL wasn't all that bad. and I think Milwaukee is more of a NL city

So because the Braves were there for ten years That negates thirty years of the Brewers? Is Boston a NL city because the Braves were in Boston a decade before the Red Sox. This logic was dumb when selig used it and is still dumb now
For the record
I like the DH I think having the pitcher hit is dumb and fans pay to see altuve correa and springer and 9/10 times of they have a "day off" they are DH instead of sitting on the bench the whole time.
The west coast games don't bother me that much because of the nature of my job and age So I'm of the camp that I'm able to get my life done during the day and chill watching the game late at night.
