Having the best record in the league gives the team a lower seeded opponent in the first round of the playoffs, the wild card team, as well as home field advantage in their league playoff series. It has no bearing, necessarily, on who gets home field advantage in the World Series, since the winning league in the All-Star game gets home field advantage. If it's conceivable to get the best record in the league, i'd keep the starters in to play for that.
If not, then I would play them some just to keep them sharp for playoff time, but give them some rest here and there as well.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
