PrintNational League East
1. New York Mets: 86-76
2. Florida Marlins: 84-78
3. Atlanta Braves: 84-78
4. Philadelphia Phillies: 83-79
5. Washington Nationals: 64-98
The Mets finally have a strong bullpen that will keep them in games late like it has failed to do the past two seasons.
National League Central
1. Chicago Cubs: 90-72
2. St. Louis Cardinals: 89-73
3. Milwaukee Brewers: 85-77
4. Cincinnati Reds: 80-82
5. Houston Astros: 76-86
6. Pittsburgh Pirates: 69-93
The Cubs will have a tough season, and could fall apart in September facing the Cardinals, Brewers, Giants, and Diamondbacks in the final two weeks.
National League West
1. Los Angeles Dodgers: 86-76
2. Arizona Diamondbacks: 82-80
3. San Francisco Giants: 76-86
4. Colorado Rockies: 74-88
5. San Diego Padres: 65-97
The Dodgers are the top team in the division and should be able to hold out, especially if they make another run at Jake Peavy.
National League MVP: Albert Pujols, Cardinals
National League Cy Young: Johan Santana, Mets
National League Rookie of the Year: Jordan Schafer, Braves
National League Manager of the Year: Tony La Russa, Cardinals
