In the eighth week of NL Central Power Rankings, the Chicago Cubs hold the top spot despite a mixed week. Their strong players, notably Pete Crow-Armstrong, excelled offensively, while their pitching staff provided reliable performances. The St. Louis Cardinals are in second after a stellar string of nine wins and significant contributions from players like Iván Herrera. Both teams are looking to secure postseason berths as they settle into crucial series this weekend, highlighting the competitive nature of the division.
The Cubs continue their series with the White Sox this weekend before a road trip that takes them to Miami and Cincinnati.
Lars Nootbaar, Masyn Winn, and Willson Contreras all had great weeks, but Iván Herrera was the leader of the offense as he returned from injury.
