Central news. centrally

Today since I had nothing else really to talk about I decided that I would talk about baseball because somebody really needs to because baseball has been no news this year. So I'm going to talk about the two divisions that I know best. The NL and AL central. First I'll do the NL.
NL Central
who will win this division?
I said at the all-star break when I did a blog about the second half predictions that I thought the Cardinals would win. Since then the Cardinals have taken first place. So now what people thought was stupid of me to say because Cinci was playing so well. Now Stl is playing better. Everybody was so caught up in the Joey Votto thing. He really is only as good as an average player having a really good year. St. Louis has a better hitter, Albert Pujols, because you are crazy if you think that Votto is better than Pujols. The Cardinals also have better and more experienced pitching. That is why I thought all along that the Cards would win this division. They are more experienced. I think that the Reds can win in a few years but right now is not their time. Then there are the cubs. I think that they have a pretty good team. Their manager is leaving, but if Sandberg replaces him then the Cubs also have a chance to win in a few years.
AL Central
I always love to talk about this division, because it is my favorite. There is no question who I want to win. I also think that that team can win. Right now the White Sox are ahead of the Twins by one game. They are also four games ahead of the Tigers. I think that both the Tigers and the Twins have a chance to win this division. Right now it is up for grabs. Detroit is just have a rough time now, but they will get hot soon. The Twins are also very dangerous. Lately they have been playing some of the worst teams in baseball. So its a little easier for them. But this division is about to get interesting. In August the White Sox play the Twins and Tigers so much you will be sick of watching the same two teams playing. This division will be decided in August, no doubt. But in the last two years the division has been decided by a playoff game after the regular season. I think that there is a huge possibility that the AL Central will make it three in a row.
