I had wild card teams in the first few seasons, but I did not like wild card teams winning the championship... it seem to cheapen the regular season.
I settled on just the division champion making the postseason.
My philosophy is that the fewer teams in the postseason, the better.
I wish major league baseball would expand to 32 teams... create 4 eight-team divisions and have only four teams in the playoffs.
I much prefer baseball the way it was years ago... just two teams would qualify for the World Series... with no interleague play... the World Series used to really be something special in the 50s... expansion and free agency ruined baseball as far as I am concerned.
