If Atlanta can stay healthy it appears as if it will be them and the Mets running away from the other 3 teams in the division. I thought the LaRoche/Gonzalez deal was a great deal for the Braves as they picked up a solid middle guy that will likely be the closer once Wickman retires. I thought they absolutely fleeced Seattle for Soriano as well. It looks like the NL has some really good teams that will contend for the pennant. Certainly Atlanta and the Mets are the class of the East If Ben Sheets stays healthy with Capuano and that talented group of young players the Brewers will finally be a team to watch. Out West the Dodgers/Padres and D Backs will make the NL West really great race
