Hmm, that's odd, I really disagree with you on Cespedes.  The one thing I will say is the guy is a not a CF, he's done about as well as I could have expected, but I didn't expect him to do that well because he's not a real CF.  He does give away some AB, but really, every hitter does, and the overall numbers are really good.  I don't even want to think about where they'd be without them.

Sure, Granderson is old, but he was only a year younger last year and the guy was amazing with RISP.  And his overall numbers are pretty good, so I don't think he just gets old when guys are on base.  Ditto Cabrera.  Duda; I have no idea if/when he's going to come back.

I can really see the rest of the season going either way.  They start to hit better with men on base, Duda and Wheeler come back, and they play 600 ball the rest of the year, they win 90 games (same as last year), which I would imagine puts them in the 1 game playoff.  (Nats would have to play 500 ball for us to catch them).  That could easily happen.

Or Duda and Wheeler never make it back, the bone spur for Matz gets worse, and they muddle around 500 for the rest of the year and miss the playoffs by 4-5 games or whatever.
