Every year, 8 teams qualify for the MLB playoffs. If you win your division, you make the playoffs.

Eight. Four teams make the playoffs in each league. There are three divisions in each league and the three teams that wind up in first place in their division make the playoffs. The fourth team to make the playoffs is the team that did not win their division but has the best overall record of all the teams that did not win their division. That team is called the "wildcard" team.
As of the start of the 2007 playoffs, no. The most 'sweeps' in the first round of the playoffs has been two and that has happened many times. But never have three teams swept in the first round of the MLB playoffs much less all four teams.

Through the 2008 season, the last season both the Cubs and White Sox were in the MLB playoffs was 1906. The White Sox defeated the Cubs, 4 games to 2, in the World Series. This is the only season both Chicago teams made the MLB playoffs in the same season.
i think that they will have an update to add that to the game.
With the Tampa Bay Rays making the playoffs in the 2008 season, all MLB teams have made the playoffs at least one time.
162 and then playoffs
Only the second-place teams with the best records in each league make the playoffs as wild cards.
0. The closest was the 2005 San Diego Padres who won the NL West Division at 82-80.
