if they wanted to win the division. The Dodgers have 2 things going for them, Torre and now manny...I think Manny will be motivated this year because he can opt out after 1 year on his contract and he learned this winter that his actions in Boston scared other teams. of course pitching is going to be a concern and AZ will be in the hunt all year, but with Manny, yes they are the team to beat in the division..on the other hand, it doesnt take much to win that division. Can they advance to the WS, well, as we seen last year, the team that can get hot at the right time can go all the way...and manny can carry the team. The Cubs are going to be better this year and Philly just as good....on paper, I cant see them beating the cubs , philly, or fl.....or even STL or the mets
my prediction this year
Dodgers
Cubs
Phil
FL..wild card

Yankees
MN
Angels
Boston..wild card
Yankee- Cub WS
