The Mets probably win the division last year if they have K-Rod and Putz, but I still won't be surprised at all if they find another way to blow it in September. That rotation is far from a sure thing and Oliver Perez looks like shit right now and that's not a good sign. He's either very good or god awful.
The Phillies are the defending world champs and while they lost Burrell, they got a better run producer in Ibanez.
I've learned my lesson with the Mets. Great talent but they find a way to fuck it up, like the Cubs in the playoffs. They've got to go out and prove it. As for the Phillies, I like this team more than last year's. I think Rollins has a much bigger year, Howard gets his batting average up a bit, and Ibanez drives in 115+ runs.
