They will have the fastest outfield in the league. Their starting pitching is better than most in the division and if (if is a big word) Sheets can stay healthy they will have the best rotation in a pretty weak NL Central. Starting lineup

Cameron (after 1st 25 games)
Weeks
Fielder
Braun
Hart
Hall
Hardy
Kendall

They may strike out a lot, but they will definitely hit a ton of HR's and score a ton of runs with that lineup. Biggest question mark or potential problem for the Crew is their bullpen. If the pen is good, they should run away with the division. That is my biased brewer fan opinion, plus I do not feel that the Cubs substantially improved their club from last year.
COME ON WITH THEIR STARTING PITCHING? Sheet is the nuts when healthy, this I can not/will not argue but SUPPAN???...I can't believe you guys are even considering Capano? FIVE and TWELVE???

Without sheets they have the as good as starters as Pittsburgh, with Sheets, they are competitive with STL
