NL East: Atlanta
Philly will stay close, but the Braves veteran Pitching Staff will make it 12 in a row.
NL Central: St. Louis
I see the Cubs and Cards going to the wire. The Cards have the slight edge though because of more offensive punch.
NL West: San Francisco
The Giants are too well rounded in every area to slip out of first.
NL Wild Card: Chicago
Philly, Arizona and Montreal will battle but come up short.
AL East: New York
Boston? Close, but no. Everyone else? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
AL Central: Minnesota
Kansas City is a nice story, but the Twins are a team on a mission.
AL West: Oakland
Once again Starting Pitching will set the A's apart.
AL Wild Card: Seattle
Angels Rotation and Boston's Bullpen will hold them back.
What do you think?
NL East: Atlanta
Philly will be Atlanta's main competition, while the Mets will continue to find ways to "snatch defeat from the jaws of victory." :D :D
NL Central: St. Louis
Unless the Cubs prove to me they can stay healthy for a whole season, I see St. Louis walking away with the pennant, although Cincy and Milwaukee (yes, I said Milwaukee) could give them a run for their money for awhile.
NL West: Arizona
While Felipe Alou is a good manager, 'Zona is just too good for the Giants right now. The race will come down to the wire though. Meanwhile, the Dodgers and the Padres duke it out for southern Cal bragging rights and the Rockies continue to twiddle their thumbs, as usual. :D
NL Wild Card: Philly
This race will be extremely close, but the Phils will barely edge out the Giants to earn the right to go to the playoffs.
AL East: New York
The Yankees know their division very well and make the appropriate adjustments to stay on top of their division. Boston, unfortunately, takes after the Mets too much, and continues to play close but losing baseball. :(
AL Central: Minnesota
This race will be one for the ages as KC and Minny duke it out for the division. However, Minny needs a stadium and KC can afford to wait a while. :D Plus, the Twinkies has some unfinished business with Mr. Selig.
AL West: Anaheim
Most teams who go to the World Series want to return, whether they won or lost. Anaheim wants a return. 'Nuff said.
:ninja:
AL Wildcard: Boston
Seattle is on the decline, and Oakland has just lost too much, IMO. The Red Sox finally return to the playoffs.
