The NL Central starts up this year with a lot of teams seeing that the Cardinals are still the team to beat in the division.  Although I would say the are the best in the division with talent and experience, it seems to me that the Brewers got a little bit better and the Cardinals maybe downgraded just a bit.  The Cards will be a tough game every time they match up with the Crew.  The Brewers took the last series with the Cards 2 out of 3, the first time all year.  With a great new stadium in St. Louis, fans will really be pulling for their the home team this year.  It is up to the Brewers to avoid the slumps that team go through.
