The way I see it, the N.L. East won't be as competitive as last year and this should be the first time in a decade and a half that the Braves won't win the division. Leo Mazzone did a lot more for Atlanta other than chewing gum, rocking back and forth, and scratching his **** most of the game. He's an encyclopedia on the pitching aspects of baseball and I don't think there's ever been a better coach for pitchers. Mazzone's loss should have quite an impact this season. Also, Philly's loss of two star players, such as Jim Thome and Billy Wagner will not get them very far, plus their issues with Bobby Abreu haven't been resolved yet. The Mets should be the favorite to win the N.L. East for obvious reasons. It seems like the Mets have been doing the most in improving their team this offseason with acquisitions of Carlos Delgado, Billy Wagner, Paul LoDuca, and a few others.
