The NL Central

In another forum in which I like to pontificate, I picked the Cubs to win the NL Central.

I think I'm going to change that pick after some further thought. I think the Cards will win the division, and the Cubs win the wild card although the Reds could surprise.

I just don't like the center field situation with a Fukudome/Johnson platoon. While I've complained about not having enough left-handed bats in the lineup for a long time and I like Bradley, he'll get hurt sometime. I also worry about Harden and Dempster having strong years.

Are the Cards in for a year of blown saves? I hope it was just opening day jitters on a cold day.

Hey, Kevin Gregg scares me too.
