Since 1998, the USA has added 45 million people, and Canada has added 2 million. The USA is almost 40% wealthier, and Canada more than 150%. There should be at least six teams added to MLB.
Baseball today is NOTHING like baseball in the 80's. Back then the ball was put into play a LOT more often and you got to see a lot more of what you go to the ballpark to see: great defensive plays and aggressive base running.
