Minimal, absolute minimal. I'd much rather win a DCS as a wild card than go one and done as a division winner.
That's completely beside the point. If you give me the choice between a wild-card World Series champion or a division winning LDS loser, obviously I want the world champion. But that's hypothetical. The point is the division is something, and it's more than "nice." I want the division because I've watched crappy baseball for seven seasons and I want a pennant on display in Nats park and I want the Phillies, Braves, Mets, and Marlins to be facing the division champions when they come here next year. If they win the division, home field would be icing on the cake and would help in the postseason, but I wouldn't be nearly as upset if they missed out on that as I would be if they blew the division.
