Heading into the new MLB season, baseball pundits across the country loudly proclaimed that the NL Central would be the most competitive division in all of baseball. After all, you had the Pittsburgh Pirates, St. Louis Cardinals, and Chicago Cubs all coming off great seasons the year before, and all seemingly primed to go hard again. With a third of the season in the books, it’s already starting to look as though the division is over, as the Cubs have raced out to a 12.5-game lead, and show no signs of slowing down their torrid pace. This is the best team in all of baseball, and what makes them even scarier is that they have a lot of young guys who may not yet have reached their full potential. The other teams in the NL Central are now in damage control mode, and need to do all that they can to try and stay with the Cubs. St. Louis will get their chance to close the gap a little when they visit Wrigley Field on Tuesday in the second game of a 3-game series. The betting lines will most certainly see the Cubs in as favorite for this one.
