Probably the Cubbies. It should be interesting because the Cubs and Cards have pretty kickass lineups but the Cards pitching seems to have more question marks than the Cubs. Assume that the Cubs' pitchers stay healthy which has been rather rare they will run away with the division. Astros might be hurting a bit this season even with a healthy Berkman. They have a big question mark in centerfield, in fact they might have the worst outfield in the division. Biggio is old and Carlos Lee's bat is nice but he has zero mobility in the field. Even their pitching staff is a mess. After Oswalt the rotation is a wreck and Lidge couldn't be more inconsistent.

I hope the astros will win!!!! Here's my breakdown without Roger Clemens:
1) Cardinals
2) Cubs
3) Astros
4) Brewers
5) Pirates
6) Reds
With Clemens
1) Astros
2) Cardinals
3) Cubs
4) Brewers
5) Pirates
6) Reds
Clemens solidifies that staff and puts Jennings as a solid number 3 and Williams as a solid number 4 as they should be, and obviously Roy O shouldn't have any problems getting 18+ wins with Carlos Lee now behind Berkman. Berkman can now possibly get his run total up, drive in some guys and contend for mvp.

Nope, St. Louis will. Everyone is rippin on the Cards rotation but look at who they are replacing. Weaver, Suppan, and Marquis. Not exactly Cy Young pitchers here. After Zambrano, the Cubs' rotation has just as many question marks as the Cards'. The rocket will be playin on the East Coast somewhere so you can forget about the 'stros.

The Pirates are going to win it. They can't be beat with their awesome rotation and their lineup.
Yea right they would be lucky to be 5 games below .500 it's going to be the Cardinals. With the Cubs as a close 2nd.

CUBS WILL INCH OUT THE CArdinals. The cardinals need more pitching and seem to keep loosing players.
Lossing the lizard will help. He sucks at pitching.

Houston Astros will win NL Central this year, added Carlos Lee to their line up this year, and biggio going for 3000 hits,he only needs 78 more hits. its going to be an exciting year.

Yea, they did. They will be a beast team and world series contender, because they are a quick and powerful team with the aquirements of Alfonso Soriano, Cliff Floyd, Ryan Theriot, and many others.

The Cards, unless Homer Bailey of the Reds emerges. If Bailey emerges for cincy they might be a force.
