The Chicago Cubs.
There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance

The Cards and the Reds I think will have something to say about the divison. It may be they only hang around until early September. Everything will go right for the Cards and I think the Reds have some good pieces in place. Bruce will have a monster season.

If the Cards have a healthy Carpenter and Wainwright, I think they'll be tough, especially in this division. Their pen is still garbage, but I think they'll find ways to win. Anyway, they worry me the most, as they do most years.

Dont count out the Brewers.IF they can get a career year from a couple pitchers,they will be close to contending.Plus ,they have a highly valued farm system.Theyll be able to get a SP or two in July if they are close.
Just sayin'....dont count out the Brewers...its basically the same team thats been trying to get all up in our ass for the past 2 seasons.
A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but Rosenthal picked Gallardo as his NL Cy Young choice..

If he really pitches that well, which is pretty unlikely, but if he does.. Milwaukee could be tough.

Jeff Suppan is their Opening Day starter, I think that says it all.

And he's been getting worse each season. I think he's headed to an ERA over 5 this year.
