I wouldn't think you'd have to replay too many games in order to win the NL East. After all, the Pythagorean standings were:

Cubs 93-69
Mets 92-70
Bucs 89-73
Cards 88-74

So assuming none of the other three teams in your division significantly outpace expectations, and your Cubbies don't significantly underwhelm, you ought to be able to take the division with wins in the mid-90's, maybe with very few games needing to be replayed.
