National League Predictions

NL East : New York Mets
Okay, okay, obviously this is only because I'm a Mets fan. I have no real pick for the NL East, praying for the Mets, but really really like the underdog Marlins. I don't like the Phillies and their injury problems, as well as the Braves and their life after Bobby Cox. Let's pray Mets, and hey, you never know!


NL Central : Cincinnati Reds
With Chapman, I think Rookie of the Year this year, Arroyo, Cordero, Leake, and Edinson Volques, they are STACKED at Pitching. You look at hitters like Joey Votto, Jay Bruce, Jonny Gomes, Edgar Renteria, and Scott Rolens, and wonder how many wins can this team put up! Brandon Phillips' swag will shut teams up as they cruise right to the 2011 World Series.

NL West : Rockies
Including their amazing Spring Training thus far, when it comes September and October, this team always finishes strong. I can see the Giants winning because of their successes last year, but with acquisitions like Ty Wiggington, and hitters like Tulo, Ty, Willy Tavares, and RBI Machine Todd Helton this team will be great! Lets not forget Ubaldo Jiminez, Esmil Rodgers and Jason Hammel in that pitching staff. This Rockies team is a real, real good ball club. Let's see where this leads us...

AL Wildcard : NL East Team / Cardinals
I can see the Cardinals making a run in the Playoffs, but see the Reds as a much better team. WIth this being said, I cant put the Cards above the Reds but maybe above a Second placed NL East team. We'll see what happens but the Cards are good maaaan.


AL Champ : Cincinnati Reds
