You could also elect to have each 16-team league operate with three divisions and then have three division winners plus one wild card qualifying for the post-season in each league.
Note that if you use OOTP's custom playoffs option you could choose to have the top two teams in each division qualify for the playoffs as opposed to the two division winners plus two wild card teams in each league qualifying. Note that a playoff format involving the top two teams in each division, with the second place team in one division playing the first place team in the other division, was considered by MLB in 1974 but was ultimately rejected. (It had also considered a two division winners plus two wild cards in each league playoff format, in addition to splitting the leagues into three divisions and having three division winners and one wild card qualifying for the post-season.)
