I actually like Supremes having the Cubs in third. Last year was the Cubs year to do it and they choked. They kept all of their stars and added Maddux and Derek Lee, and they got completely blown away by the Cards. I don't see them doing any better this year, and now they don't have the momentum or anything. I don't think that right now there is a distinguished #2 team in the NL Central, it could be the Cubs, Stros, Reds, or even the Brewers.
Speaking of good staffs...
Santana-Radke-Silva-Lohse-Mulholland-Mays/Nathan-Rincon-Romero-Balfour-Craine
Top staff in the AL last season, all coming back with Joe Mays and prospects, bow down.
