MLB would need to shorten the schedule a bit to make room for the extra round without going into early November again for the World Series. Assuming they keep the 1st two rounds at a best-of-five series, MLB could go back to the old 154-156 game season to easily make room for the expansion.
Selig already stated how MLB doesn't want the playoffs going into very late October to early November again after the Rays-Phillies series a few years ago.
