The Phillies are just too good not to win this division, if they can add Benson they'll lock it up.

Benson would crack under the pressure in Philly he's meant to pitch on the west coast while he develops he wont' pitch well in places like Boston NY or Philly. Anyways Braves are going to win it they've won it what 12 years in a row now I can't vote against them untill they lose it.

Expos are 15.5 back, not 5.5.

I voted Braves, because they continue to amaze me by overachieving in the regular season despite losing huge parts of their club. Also, they've stayed in contention without their big guns (Chipper Jones, Marcus Giles, JD Drew) in the lineup all the time.

I think Philly is the most talented of the bunch, but Atlanta seems to play very well down the stretch. I believe they can (and will) take the NL East.

Mets are out of the race at 6 back, Braves have a 1.5 lead over Phillies, and a 4.5 lead over Florida.

I would like to see the Phillies win. I think they will start to play a bit better, but obviously aren't consistent which makes me wonder if they can go anywhere in the playoffs.
