re: Is the NL Central the best division in MLB?

I enjoy talking baseball, doesn't mean I want to all the time, I wasn't even going to post at all as I'm not in that mood tonight but seeing Dodgers as best team I had to laugh.
I'll take the Cards, Royals, Pirates, and possibly Cubs/Jays over the Dodgers.
Mainly because in my postseason experience with the Cards, most games tend to come down to bullpens, and the Dodgers currently have a bottom 5 bullpen in all of the Majors, and by far the worst of any playoff team. Combine that with 2 quality starters, and I would be surprised if they make it out of the first round again.
I would never, and I mean never, trust a team with a terrible bullpen in October.

Fair enough and I agree that the Dodgers bullpen could be a concern in the postseason. I would take their lineup and rotation over the Cardinals though, that's why I think they are better. It's all close though, both (and all the other teams you listed) are very good.
I do have to take issue with the "2 quality starters" line. That may be one of the biggest undersells I have ever seen. They have two of the best starters alive and the rest of their rotation is solid as well.
