The AL East and AL Central are both WAY better than the NL West.. The NL West has four teams that can win the division, but none of those four teams would finish top two in either of the AL East or Central.

Man when u rank a division u go by quality of teams!! The AL East & Central have 2 teams each that can win that division, while the NL west have 4!! That makes that division better!! They only have 1 weak team which is the Giants!! The NL west is the most competitive division in baseball!! Stop bein biased!! Got Em!!

Just because there are four mediocre teams in the NL West that can win that division, doesn't mean it's strong.. The White Sox and Blue Jays would win that division, handedly.. They'll only get one playoff team this year, most likely, and that team will get knocked out in the first round.

The NL Central also has four teams that could legitimately win that division, does that make that division better too? Hell, the NL as a whole has more teams that could make the playoffs since the AL Playoff picture is before the season set at almost 6 or 7 teams, I'd say.. It's a lot more wide open in the NL, which means, more teams will be in the hunt.

AL Playoff Contenders:
Boston, New York, Detroit, Cleveland, Seattle, Los Angeles...

That doesn't mean teams like Chicago and Toronto aren't good, it's just that they are very long shots to make the playoffs.. When you list the NL playoff contenders its a far longer list...

NL Playoff Contenders:
New York, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Arizona, Colorado, San Diego, Los Angeles..

That doesn't mean the NL is better than the AL, either, as can be told by interleague records and all-star game results.

Man u are trippin if u think all the teams in the NL west are mediocre!! And u really trippin if u think that the white sox or blue jays would win that division handedly!! U are AL biased homie!! All 4 of those teams are good so u need to get up on your baseball homie!! Now the NL central I feel u on!! They do have a few teams that can win it and they are so so teams but not in the west!! And the team from the west went to the world series last year and two of them made the playoffs so why is it gonna be different this year?? Just cause u say so? Hahah!! I guess well agree to disagree!! Well see how the season goes though!! Got Em!!

AL central still probably is the best. NL west has some great pitching but lack offenses (giants, dodgers, padres). but it will be the most competitive if the diamondbacks dont run away with it
