January 27, 201214 yr Phillies, Braves, Marlins, Nationals, Brewers, Cardinals, Diamondbacks, and Giants are the only NL teams who have a shot at the playoffs next year. predicting who will make it, though, is a total crapshoot. edit: actually, is Braun in fact suspended for 50? if so, the Reds could definitely be on that list The Reds have a better team than the Brewers, with or without Braun, imo. I'd say the Reds have the best team in that division.
January 27, 201214 yr At the same time, though, Wild Card, if Werth has a bounce-back year hitting around his 2010 numbers, and Harper gets called up and is even half of what people are expecting, they'll be just fine and be very much in the hunt, without a big free agent bat. Their pitching staff ain't too bad, either, after Gio and Strasburg. + Ryan Zimmerman, their best player, missed 61 games last year. Their offense could certainly be better as is. It's the same thing with us. Our offensive #'s last year weren't indicative of the lineup's talent.
