I have 4 lefties and 1 righty in my rotation. Does that really matter?

Depends on their splits and which team(s) you're playing, I guess.

My only concern would be catching a right hand hvy lineup in the postseason.

Handedness is one of the last things I worry about.   If I have a choice between an 85 and an 81 with the 85 making me "lefty heavy", I'm still taking the 85.

Not if they're good.

A lot of teams try to stack with hitters especially good against RHP simply because there are more.  You may have an inherent advantage against some teams if you've got good lefties.
