MLB National League West?

I know several people who think the National League West is the worst division in the Major League Baseball. I realize there was a stretch of time, specifically 2004-2008 when the Western Division was awful but now they have rebounded. Last year they almost had three teams with 90+ wins. This year they are the only division with four teams with 50+ victories. Also this season, the NL West is over .500 when playing the NL East and NL Central. Do you guys think that the NL West has been one of the better divisions in the Majors the last two years?

    They were dominant in 2007 aswell. I think the "NL Worst" is behind people now. They realize this division is filled with tough contenders and they aren't going away.

    The NL west became the final branch interior the NL this 300 and sixty 5 days, yet maximum years the nl west champ gets beat interior the 1st around sounds like this 300 and sixty 5 days would be distinctive. however the nl west isn't the final in baseball. The nl isn't very sturdy, the 4 ultimate communities are all interior the american league. so some distance as st. louis that's a sizable baseball city yet no longer a extensive television marketplace. The ws final 300 and sixty 5 days have been given undesirable scores simply by fact the two communities have been from we could say medium markets. they like the cubs,yanks, pink sox, dodgers etc... interior the sequence for sturdy television scores no longer basically simply by communities massive markets yet they have a nationwide following they are the communities with alot of followers everywhere in the rustic

    i think the NL west is the one of the hardest behind the AL east. 4 of the 5 teams are above .500 and are serious contenders.

    I think they're the second best division in baseball after the AL East. The Rockies, Padres, Dodgers, and Giants all have 50+ wins and are really tight

    You're thinking about the AL West. That's a horrible league.
