MLB Preview For The Season That Might Not Happen: NL East

In our MLB preview, we trek onto the NL East. This is where the defending champions, the Washington Nationals, reside, However, the NL East has the potential to be the most competitive division in baseball. How will it shake out?

• Top Dog(s): Washington Nationals and Atlanta Braves: Two rivals rule the roost in the NL East. The defending champs retained Stephen Strasburg, solidifying a solid rotation. The Braves added Marcell Ozuna to bolster the lineup and Will Smith to a bullpen loaded with former closers. It'll be a dogfight to see who wins this division.
  
• Mid-Tier Team(s): Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets: Not done with their spending post-signing Bryce Harper, the Phillies added Zach Wheeler and Didi Gregorius. The Mets are hoping that Rick Porcello can fill Wheeler's void in the rotation. Can these two teams make the NL East ultra competitive?
  
• Bottom of the Barrel: Miami Marlins: It has become tradition for the Marlins to be at the bottom.
