MLB: 2018 Season Previews – NL Central: Year one after the hangover

The hangover after the first Chicago Cubs title is over. Now it is time to launch the next attack on the top in Windy City. But even the National League Central has not slept the competition and in some cases upgraded it considerably.

The World Series hangover the Cubs complained about at the beginning of last year should be over. In addition, Yu Darvish and Tyler Chatwood were two good pitchers. In the lineup Kyle Schwarber has lost a lot of weight and is now supposed to be fitter than ever before, which might even give him an acceptable defense in the left field.

The Cubs have a claim to return to the World Series. The problem, however, is that certain competitors in the West and East could sometimes be better staffed.

Forecast: 1st place in the Central NL.
