1, Since this will use as played schedules, do you ever get strange finishes at the end of a season due to games that weren't made up in real life? For example, a team finishing 2nd, but the non replayed game if played could change that?

Yes, that is possible. More so for earlier seasons when club schedules were less likely to be played out in full. Note that prior to the early 1950s, there was no rule allowing a club to make up a postponed game after the scheduled end of the season, so winning or losing a pennant by a half-game was entirely possible (and which is what prompted the leagues to make a change).
