April baseball is a lot of fun, the new season is still exciting and fans get wrapped up in emerging story-lines. Among these, Florida Marlins sit atop the National League East, beating out the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies; the Chicago Cubs, on the brink of their 100th seasons without a World Series, are looking poised to make a run; and the Colorado Rockies are looking lost despite winning the NL pennant in 2007.

Here are ten things to look for in May.

You're right on the target, Alan.

The Dodgers need to take less at-bats from Andruw Jones and give more to Andre Ethier.

The ideal outfield:
LF- Andre Ethier
CF- Juan Pierre
RF- Matt Kemp

Hey, wasn't that last year's outfield?
