Terry May caught a foul-tip in the mask for saying:
 AJ>> I think it would make more sense to limit interleague games to
 AJ>> natural rivals and increase the number of games between the teams.
 AJ>> In fact, it would make sense to restructure the leagues and their
 AJ>> schedules to accentuate such rivalries.  But making sensible moves
 AJ>> doesn't seem to be what baseball is about.
 TM> But what if you're the White Sox and your "natural rival" is the Cubs,
 TM> who are having a horrible year, and Kansas City's "natural rival" is the
 TM> Cardinals, who are having a fantastic year?  Do you think that's fair to
 TM> the Royals and their playoff chances?
Personally, I dont' think the interleague games should count for squat when 
determining division champions and wild card spots for exactly the same 
reason you describe.
