Is the National League Central the best division in baseball? Well it is the only one with three teams with 34 or more victories heading into June. Two of those are locked up here as the Red and Pirates are tied for second behind the Cardinals after the Reds won the series opener Friday night.
The Pirates looked great in the first half of last season, but they went through a major 2nd half collapse. At the beginning of August they were 16 games above .500, but then the bottom fell out and they ended up with yet another losing season.
With the Reds running away with the NL Central the Pirates and Cardinals will have to chase the Wild Card to make the post-season. St. Louis and Atlanta are tied for the Wild Card lead while Pittsburgh is 2 games back.
The Arizona Diamondbacks had a sensational season in 2011 and made their way to the MLB playoffs. The team started slowly in 2012, but they are trying to work their way back into the playoff picture.
The Pittsburgh Pirates have been the biggest surprise in Major League Baseball so far this season. It seems the Pirates are in the playoff race to stay this year. The Cubs have a solid home record, but they have been awful on the road.
The 2011 Pittsburgh Pirates got a fast start out of the gate last season and actually stayed in the Central Division race past the All-Star break, but the end result was a 72-90 record and another losing season.

The NL Central was the toughest division in the MLB last year. I am not looking for a repeat in 09. Several big time players left the division during the off-season. Milwaukee will feel the biggest losses after a 2nd place finish. How far will they fall? Keep reading to find out.
Pittsburgh-area fans have been spoiled over the past few years, what with the collective success of the Steelers, Penguins and Panthers. Apparently, somebody forgot to send the memo to the Pittsburgh Pirates, and it looks like another long season in Steeltown for this baseball club.
