Wow, what a biased piece of trash.

^^ Spoken like a true Cubs fan.

I won't argue the biased part, because it is very biased towards teams that have either added to a successful 2009 team or done nothing to improve on an average season. The trash part...we'll debate that come All-Star break and the end of the year.

Thanks for the educated opinion with factual backing

Not bad... however the outlook for my Astros is by far a stretch as I am concerned. I could only hope the rotation of Myers, Wandy and Oswalt would be that good. However, injuries already rearing their heads here in Houston, we look like an aging team of vets with a poor, poor minors system and in desperate need of either a big year from everyone - or a fire sale to get young talent in here ASAP.

I don't necessarily see the Astros chances as a factor of how dominant they can be, I just think the depth of pitching in the top three of the rotation puts them behind the Cards and Brewers. The other teams in the Central might have more firepower at the plate, but I have a feeling that pitching is going to be more important than ever this year.

Was that not a biased review. If you weren't the Cardinals you didn't improve much according to this.
And by saying the Cubs Derrek Lee was on the way out is hard to believe. If he puts out numbers anything like last season .306 avg, 35 HR, 111 RBI's I see the Cubs giving him atleast a 2 year extension.

Definitely a biased NL Central preview, but hey, we'll see what happens time come the All-Star Break and the end of season to see how the teams play it out.

While it might be hard for a lot to grasp, not every fan of a certain team is a ***** of the rival club. I'm anything but a Cub-*****. I really don't see a lot of teams in the NL Central doing enough to shake things up. Basically it's going to come down to the same teams with the same players improving with what they have.

And who cares if it's right or wrong anyways, it's a preview of a season that lasts 162 games. Just one person's unique observation. It doesn't hurt my feelings or pride if I'm wrong, but I'd rather miss when being original than absorb what the talking heads have to say and just spit it back out.

Here's a to a great season of MLB.
