The rule is fairly new. Melky Cabrera and Johnny Peralta became eligible for the postseason after coming off suspension a few years ago and I guess MLB didn't like the look of that.

Kind of dumb, IMO, since it makes the penalty nonuniform (you miss more games if you team makes the postseason) and potentially screws with the postseason competitive balance.
