There are possibilities for how to address it, but at first I see a problem here. With 13 teams per subleague, there has to be at least one team from each subleague playing interleague at a given time. But with 4-game (or 2-game) series involved with intraleague play, having only 3-game interleague series will not align exactly.

That earlier 30-team case worked because it all 3-game series for intraleague (6 games per opponent) and mix of 2-game and 3-game series for interleague (5 games per opponent). The 2-game interleague series could be used at times when everybody is playing interleague, and 3-game could be used when otherwise there was intraleague play too. In other words it was possible to have everyone playing the same length of series at the same time whether it be a mix or just interleague, but that is not possible exactly as this is described.

Some ways to handle this would be to keep the game distribution but make offdays not uniform. I think the better approach for you though would be to play some interleague opponents 7 times and some intraleague opponents 6 times. Have not mapped it out, but I think that doing so would allow for having everyone playing same-length series at the same time to keep offdays consistent.
