I'm not saying there werent people who made that prediction , just not anything I seen. In addition all the best prediction websites I've seen(538 par example) have had 3 from the NL Central - Cubs, Brewers and Cardinals making it. so really not sure where the perception of poor teams in the Central comes from.

There are alot of injuries to the lineup at the moment but the bullpen is shocking. Been our problem for years, never addressed it properly. I think with theplayers coming back if we can stay close enough then the division is still open but at the moment its frustrating!

They are all struggling though at the moment. Atlanta I thought would be better, the Phillies have been pretty good if a little inconsistent and the Mets have been far better than I thought they would be to be honest.
