What you are talking about is called contraction. some people in and around baseball thought that attendance was laking in certain areas, the public was losing interest, and the quality of play was going down because there were so many teams. So they toyed with the idea of contraction, or disolving a couple of teams. The Expos, Twins, and Marlins were the teams most commonly mentioned for contraction. Thankfully, this never happened.
