The postseason is the time when the MLB front offices get to see the teams that they built and hopefully everything worked out well or else some of their jobs could be on the line.

The NL West has always been a division highlighted by a battle between two top teams but this year there may be a third team throwing their hats into the ring making this battle more interesting.

The MLB is a league that has been divided right down the middle for years between two completely different leagues.

The National League West is home to the new dynasty in the MLB but it is far from a division dominated by that team.

It seems like only recently that the second round of the MLB postseason was beginning and teams were starting their march towards the World Series. Now the second round is over as the Division Series are done and only four teams remain in the hunt. Heading into the division series there was still a lot unknown about every team in the postseason. There was a lot of talk about who could make it and what they would do but in reality nobody ever knows.

In every major league in North America there are the haves and the have nots and more often than not the difference can be seen in the divisions. There are the great divisions that seem to pump out championship team after championship team like in the AL East. Then there are the divisions that seem to be given a postseason spot for being the best of the worst.
