They might be a little better but they were very very bad last year (with a Cy Young Caliber performance from Randy Johnson - who is gone). What reasons do you have for this pick? Right now I see them as having the worst record in the majors and losing 95+ games. I'll say San Diego. The young players on SD are really starting to come together.

I think that Prior and Wood really are not hurt and the best starting staff in baseball is going to prove it in Spades this year. I predict three twenty+ game winners (Zambrano (Cy Young Winner), Prior and Wood), a 16 game winner (Maddux) and 14 wins out of the number 5's) NL East> New York They were also very bad last year and a number of their key pieces are old and/or ready to fall apart.

Are you sure you are thinking of the right team? The White Sox are significantly worse than last year and they are trying to become a "speed" team in a bandbox of a park. They look to me to be ready to fall off the abyss. I pick them to finish last in the division and with the second worst record in baseball. (Only Toronto will end up with a worse record...) I can't pick against the Twins until the lose... AL East> Boston Okay. I think the wheels fall off the Yankee cart this year. New York I think the wheels fall off the Yankee cart. This is going to be the "wierd" one... I think Detroit is actually going to put it together and win the Wild Card.. Boston over Chicago in 7 games

The Cubs were in the playoffs two years ago and were in the playoff hunt with 2 games left in the season last year. At least some of the "injury" problems were due to bad luck and not "chronic" problems. The pitching staff is all "young" with the exception of Maddux, and is still on the uphill side of the curve. In other words, they should be getting better not declining. As for the line up, Garciapara will be there for a full year. He is a major upgrade over the other guys that played the position last year. Lee is not yet moving into the decline phase. A full year of Walker/Hairston is a major upgrade over Walker/Grudzulenik. Alou and Sosa's production will likely be at least equalled by the platoons in the outfield and IF Dubois plays up to his promise, the Cubs will see an improvement. Aramis Ramirez and Corey Patterson, like the pitching staff, should be on the uphill side of the curve. Finally the Cubs appear to have a number of other young guys ready to take big steps up and help Further the Cubs lost more games than they should have based their numbers. That is unlikely to happen two years running. In other words, it looks like a much better team than the last two years - both offensively and defensively in a Division where one team (The Astros) has gotten measurably worse and the other "big team" the Cardinals has, at best, stayed in the same position. But again, I would love to hear your support for ideas such as the pick of the Diamondbacks in the West.

Obviously, they have some question marks in their starting rotation now. OTOH, their lineup is likely substantially better than it was last year (Kendall instead of Miller, a full season of Chavez, 2b not a black hole, Crosby likely to improve with a full season under his belt, etc) and their bullpen is likely much better too. And while Hudson was extremely effective for them last season - Mulder wasn't. They might be a season away, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they are as good as or better than they were last year.

Greene, Burroughs, and Nady are young, and they have a fairly young rotation, but that's about it. Of course, compared to the Giants they look young, but overall this is not a team that I'd expect to improve by everyone getting a year older. JHB
