Do you expect regression from some of those guys? I mean ultimately you won 95 games while getting 3 WAR out of Alex. If you do, why? Most of them are in/entering their primes. And shit, Infante almost can't be as bad as he was last year.
I guess 4 wins worth of regression isn't really that unheard of, but if a 95 win team that's only losing 1 impact player from the roster would be suddenly considered a 'fringe' playoff team, that pretty much makes every team in baseball fringe level.
At that point don't you just subscribe to the tossup model and say it's all just one wild ass guess anyway?

Replacing Gordon, Rios, and Zobrist with Dyson, Orlando, and Infante is a huge hit to a third of our lineup.
