Who is going to win?

with petitte coming off the DL and now with beltran.... I'd think the astros are gonna be pretty damn good from here on out..

 

i'll with the astros

Put me down for the Astros.

 

Good pitching, good hitting, good fielding, experience. Things are looking good for them.

if the astros ever wanted to win ... this might be their best chance ever

Cubs

the cubs there all crippled and there still only 3.0 games behind the cardinals

Cardinals, everyone is doubting us and yet continuing to doubt us.. I love it

I can't vote to be honest.

 

IMO this will be a classic race between the Cubs, Cardinals, and Astros.

 

All 3 teams have their strengths and weaknesses, and I wouldn't be surprised if any of the 3 end up winning the division.

 

I'm rooting for the Cardinals though without a doubt among those 3, I'd be funny to see them win after hearing all the stuff all offseason about Houston and the Cubs.

 

Also, the Cardinals have the best fans in the league and I enjoy my time in St. Louis when I am down there usually once or twice a year for a couple Cardinals games.

Cubs by over 5 games

well, i hope the cards win. theyre my favorite team in the central, and i hope the cubs win the wild card.

 

 

but i voted for the cubs winning the division, and i think the 'stros'll win the WC.

the cardinals are the team everyone has been surprised by.

 

 

by august i expect the cardinals, astros, and cubs to all be within 3 games of each other and for it to remain taht way throughout the year.

 

 

the brewers are their young prospects away from being for real.

 

 

the reds will probably fade based on their lack of starting pitching.....but they could continue to throw monkey wrenches into the mix.

 

 

everyone buys into the myth of the cubs being so much better than anyone else....i dont really know if that is really true.

 

 

i still maintain teh astros win the division but that is a bit clouded in homerism.

 

i do think fully that there wont be any team 'pulling' away unless the other two suffer major injuries.

I'll take the Cubs pitching staff over the Astros and the Cubs offense isnt that far off (Walker, Patterson, Lee, Ramirez, Sosa, Alou, Barrett). The Cubs bullpen has struggled but has good arms (Farnsworth, Remlinger, Hawkins, Beltran, Merker).

 

I see the Cubs pulling away when the pitching staff is 100% healthy and the bullpen starts pitching consistently.

Nice post at the same time with the exact same response :lol

Cubs

GO 'STROS!!!

Cubs.

 

As long as their rotation doesnt get hurt, they will win the division.
