What is the story about?
It’s Rivalry Weekend or whatever — 15 matchups that I guess link two teams that are supposed to be rivals together.
Sometimes, this is inherently fun, like when the teams in question are basically co-located and it’s a battle-for-the-jurisdiction of sorts (Mets-Yankees, Cubs-White Sox, and I guess even Angels-Dodgers, sorta). Sometimes, it’s a bit weirder, a la Twins-Brewers. And then there are the leftover teams, including Braves-Red Sox, Diamondbacks-Rockies, and maybe Blue Jays-Tigers (though maybe you
feel that one is more justified).
Would you change any of these? Keep in mind that if you do, you have to find a new set of partners as needed.
