BTW, How in the hell is Peralta a top 5 player in WAR? A 5.6 WAR? He's hitting .260.

He's at 5.1 fWAR. His defense has been spectacular and he's produced 26% more runs than the average ML hitter from the shortstop position. That's huge.
Cole is a good young pitcher, but they don't have a single starter who has put up more than 1.2 WAR. Kind of hard to compete in a division when your starting pitching is that bad.
