What Will Be Some Interesting Things To Watch For In The National League Central This Season ?

Are the Pirates a real contender.

Who's going to win the Central

Will the Pirates and Reds continue the Bean Ball. Where pitchers throw at the other teams best players.

Will Cubs lose 100 games.

How will fans respond to Ryan Braun.

Is Ryan Braun really a great player or did the steroids help his performance

Billy Hamilton and Ryan Braun are probably the two biggest things I'm looking at.

I have my eye out on the Reds too. I picked them to win the World Series in both 2012 and 2013 and both years they disappointed me. Maybe they can shock me this year (I think St. Louis will win the NL Central)

-Ryan Braun coming off huge steroid suspension

-Cardinals youth movement bringing Shelby Miller, Michael Wacha, Carlos Martinez, Kolten Wong and Oscar Taveras through.

-Javier Baez, the minute the Cubs call him up

-Billy Hamilton having everybody on 100 SB watch

-Pirates will either be better with Gerrit Cole, Wandy Rodriguez and Starling Marte all year or will they be the Pirates.

-NL Central continuing MVP trend with 5 of the last 6 awarded

How bad are the Cubs?

At least the Astros can be bad elsewhere in the AL West.
