As I mentioned earlier, I think 12 would work all right if it was the top 3 teams in each of four 8-team divisions, with 2nd playing 3rd in each division in the first round.
I'm ambivalent on the matter. My personal preference is 4/24 (secondarily, 4/26), with two-division leagues and just the division winners qualifying. However, that is what I grew up with, so that undoubtedly influences that preference.
I'm ambivalent simply because MLB is going to do what MLB wants to do. The question becomes at what point does MLB doing what it does spoil my interest in the sport. It hasn't been spoiled yet, but it's always possible some decision will do that.
