Are The Cubs for REAL?

The Chicago Cubs: World Series Champions.....havent heard that in what...100 years? Who knows if that could change this year though as they are off to a fast start. Soriano is picking his play up, the pitching is stellar, and the bullpen is coming through. So.....DO THEY TOP MY POWER RANKINGS?

Here are my top 15:

1. Cubs(25-16)- Read Above

2. Diamondbacks- Brandon Webb, Conor Jackson, EVERYONE is coming through!

3. Cleveland Indians(22-19)- Dont always go by the record. The pitching is off to a GREAT start. If Lee can keep it up....WATCH OUT!

4. Boston RedSox(24-19) Great Start for the defending champs! Matsusaka is a key performer in the present AND the future.

5. Tampa Bay Rays(24-17)- Scott Kazmir, James Shields. Enough Said.

6. Oakland Athletics(23-19)- It wont last...but they should enjoy it while they can!

7. Houston Astros(24-18) Two Words- LANCE BERKMAN!

8. Los Angeles Angels Of Anaheim(24-19) Good but not great start. Lucky that the Mariners have had early struggles. Joe Saunders is surprising many.

9. Philadelphia Phillies(23-19)- Dangerous Team if Howard can step it up a notch.

10. Florida Marlins(23-17)- Cant be too good if Mark Hendrickson is your opening day starter! Good start though in an interesting NL East Division.

11. Cardinals(24-19)
12. White Sox(20-20)
13. Braves(20-20)
14. Mets(20-19)
15. Yankees(20-22)
