no, why you're seeing 14 games, in all honesty, is certain teams will not reciprocate like you're seeing in the NHL where it's a minimum home and home series in each arena.... One team will agree to do that by hosting teams from the opposite conference, but those franchises won't return the engagement it rarely mattered which fanbase or where the league was in a given year.... the League is the final arbiter..... Portland fans asked the team to submit several different teams to fit in, even when the league played 78 or 80 in a given season. AL East plays each other 19 times in a season double to that of hockey, EVEN THE Minors in Baseball average 140, so that point is irrelevant.... Fanbases league-wide have asked, and are still asking as those 31 teams set the upcoming league schedule..... what recourse do you have when the plan is set by asking the team to modify the schedule, that gets forwarded into the annual matrix....
the other major issue is financial.....
