Won't be getting that perfect pip to complete the set anytime soon.

Perfect titles are an entirely different beast than anything before it. This is the endgame; you gotta pull out all the stops here. You must have a good team composition and strategy for the season AND a cohesive playoff strategy, even to the point of having some playoff roster-specific players to counter e.g. righty or lefty strategies. It's hard, but possible.
One thing I'd recommend is either going all in on a particular park factor handedness gimmick (righty or lefty), or making HEAVY use of platoons. You want to make sure that you roll out a squad of righty killers against righties and lefty killers against lefties (with the former being more important to tackle during the season and the latter during the playoffs).
You also need to form a distinct plan for how you're shutting down your opponents. Is lefty CON an issue? Or maybe righty HRs? Do you think your team has higher GAP/CON than most, or smaller? Do you want to minimize HRs or maximize them? Which benefits your unique offense the most?
There are lots of ways to answer these team building questions, with the lefty strategy probably requiring the least amount of effort (but somewhat less effective now), but it's up to you as to how you want to approach them.
