I had dropped the St. Louis Cardinals down from No. 1 in my estimation to win the NL Central this year with the loss of Adam Wainwright. At that point, I had put the Reds with a slight edge over the Cardinals, with the Brewers a very close third if not even.
Now, although he won't be gone for the season, the cracked rib injury sustained by Zach Greinke, though not a season-ender, does put Milwaukee back a bit.
Otherwise, amongst Cardinals and injuries, Chris Carpenter's hammy doesn't seem too serious, and David Freese had a solid opening to spring training.
So, while still giving the Reds a slight nod at this early point, I'll put a bit more light between the Cards and Brewers.
