I think the Nationals will cool off slightly in the second half. But I have to pick the Nats to win the NL East division. It's a special year for a special team. If Jim Bowden can pick up a slugger by the trade deadline, I like our chances even better.
Here's my final NL East standings prediction:
Washington Nationals 94-68
Atlanta Braves 90-72
Florida Marlins 85-77
N.Y. Mets 79-83
Philadelphia Phillies 75-87
What do you guys think?
