Baseball playoff expansion faces no set deadline this season
Negotiators say no firm deadline for expanding to a 10 team playoff this season. The plan would add a one game wild card in each league, with the Houston Astros moving to the American League in 2013 and the schedule needing alignment with the World Series. Bud Selig and players advocate the change, while managers and players express mixed views on a single elimination opener and its impact on rest and pitching.
