Why is it unreasonable to have a playoff game for determining which team gets into the post season, but not bothering (and instead relying on tiebreakers) when both teams are in, and it's just a question of who gets which seed?

I just think they should be consistent. Either you have a better record than a team, when tied, based on h2h records or you don't. Why look at it differently based on whether both teams have a shot at making the playoffs?

A playoff game between the Red Sox and Yankees today would be a fiasco. They would start some regulars, and probably bring in the reserves pretty quickly, especially if one team got to a decent lead.

Isn't that exactly what would have happened if Cleveland, Boston and New York ended up with the same record?
