So now that the team is pretty much set, with only minor tweeking to look forward to, lets makes some predictions and follow up with it around the ASB and see how we all did....
I say the Padres and Dodgers will battle it out again for the NLWest....
1. Padres/Dodgers
3. Dbacks
4. Rockies
5. Giants ( age kills them this year )
Bring back the Chicken !!
Get'r done KT........... 2008 Predictions
-Prior ( if he proves healthy ) signs a multi-year extension in Sept. - not healthy, no contract for you
-Gerut makes team, and has a great season
-Edmonds was a total BUST

I think 90-93 for the division winner.....more than that and someone's having multiple guys with breakout/career seasons

Rockies just don't have the pitching to get out of last place unless the DBacks youngsters just absolutely collapse. Dodgers have the best whole package IMO. They got good starting pitching, speed, a good offense and a solid bullpen.
2008 Giants > Padres
Pathetic Stat of the Year- Matt Cain has a 3.74 career ERA, but has won just 30 of his 104 starts.
I think this division will see-saw back and forth among all five teams again this year until late into the season. I think it will boil down who is hot at the end of the season. The division winner will be around 85-90 wins.
Padres win 3rd straight division title
Dodgers finish a close 2nd
Giants not too far behind
Diamond Backs, in it till early September
Rockies. Out of it by mid August
Hollywood...we said this upcomig season...not last year
