Division winners have a bye round in the playoffs.
Wild card teams are the top two teams -records wise (ie: wins and losses)- outside of the division winners, that will play for the "WILDCARD game."
WILDCARD game = 1 game PLAY-IN game. You win that, and your team is in the AL or NLDS which is played as your typical win 4 out of 7 and you move on to the next one playoff round.
