6. Cardinals (Fall)
Cards Up: Though a 2-8 record over the season's final 10 games costs them a shot at home-field advantage, the Cardinals win the NL Central and return to the postseason for the first time since winning it all in 2006. Projected to win just 83 games, they can thank Albert Pujols, who leads the league in EqA for the fourth time in five years while compiling his record ninth straight .300/30 HR/100 RBI season, dueling Cy Young candidates Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright, and the July 24 arrival of Matt Holliday (.353/.419/.604), a point after which they post the league's best record.
