ABSTRACT:
Andres Galarraga has cancer. Moises Alou tore up his knee. Kerry Wood’s elbow exploded, knocking him out for two season. The National League lost some of its marquee value this spring but one thing hasn’t changed – the Braves are still the team to beat. Look for the Dodgers, Astros and Mets to join them in the playoffs and look for the braves to prevail.
