THEY are a very young team that is growing up together, alot like the oakland team last year. When they dismantled their team they got lots of top notch pitchers and that is starting to pay off. Ryan Dempster is their ace.They were 3 games under .500 and I look for them to be much improved from that. Pretty much the same lineup will be back, hopefully Cliff Floyd can stay healthy. They also got one of the best fielding catchers back, Charles Johnson who will also improve their output hitting wise from the catcher position. Their catchers last year has fewer than 5 home runs last year.<BR>Marlins come close to A wildcard spot and maybe squeak one out.<P>Bloodhounds

Agree 100%. Good leadoff guy in Castillo, good young players who should be entering their prime: Floyd, Wilson, Kotsay and Lowell. Johnson who seems to have learned to hit somewhat and can still throw out runners is back. I can see another 10 game improvement. Still, Burnett needs to show his promise (one his broken foot heels), Floyd needs to stay healthy and the shortstop needs to get it together.
