1982 NL Standings and League Leaders

September 21, 1982

  As the 1982 NL campaign nears the end of the regular season both the St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Padres hold on to 4 game leads in their divisions. The excellent Montreal Expos continue to chase the Cardinals in the NL East. 4 teams are chasing the Padres in the NL West but the closest team, Houston, has been 1-9 in their last 10 games. The Astros may be regretting trading top pitcher Don Sutton. LA and Atlanta are finally making a push, but it may be too late for them.

1982 NL Standings and League Leaders

September 14, 1982

  Two weeks into September finds the 2nd place teams in both Divisions of the NL putting big-time pressure on both division leaders. The Montreal Expos have pulled within 4 games of the St. Louis Cardinals in the NL East. The Houston Astros are within 2 games of the San Diego Padres in the NL West. No matter that the Cardinals are playing at an exceptional .629 rate, they can't seem to shake the Expos.
  Montreal boasts the top 2 Winning pitchers in the NL with Steve Rogers (19 Wins) and Bill Gullickson (18 Wins). Andre Dawson (114 RBI) and the surprising Tim Wallach (36 HR, 114 RBI) have been leading the offensive attack of the Expos. The Astros have been right behind the Padres for quite a while, at one point this month only .5 GB. With less than 20 games left in the season, it looks to be an exciting finish in the NL.

1982 NL Standings and League Leaders

August 16, 1982

  It's the middle of August in the 1982 MLB season. The St. Louis Cardinals have shown they are the top team in the NL. They hold a comfortable lead in the NL East over the Pittsburgh Pirates and Montreal Expos, two teams playing so well that they would be in 1st place in the NL West. The Cardinals have played as a complete team. You won't see any individuals in the NL League Leaders, with the notable exception of closer Bruce Sutter (22 Saves). The Cardinals have a NL best Runs/Agnst Differential of +155 showing the outstanding team balance.
  In the NL West the San Diego Padres have been clinging to 1st place for most of the season. The Padres have played just well enough to hold off the Houston Astros and San Francisco Giants.

1982 NL News Recap and League Leaders

August 1, 1982

San Diego's catcher Terry Kennedy continues to surprise everyone with his high level of consistency at the plate as well as behind it. Kennedy leads the NL in hitting with a .332 BA and has been very effective in leading the Padres pitching staff and stopping opponents from stealing bases. Atlanta's Bob Horner is trying hard to help the Braves stay in the NL West pennant race. He now leads the NL in HR with 32 and is 2nd in RBI (86). Houston's pitching staff led by Don Sutton, Nolan Ryan and Joe Niekro is the best in the NL. They've needed to be considering the Astro's woeful hitting attack. Montreal and Pittsburgh are getting outstanding production from Expos: Tim Wallach, Andre Dawson, and Pirates:Johnny Ray, Bill Madlock.  The NL East1st place St. Louis Cardinals are notably absent among the top League Leaders with the exception of Bruce Sutter. Sutter is 7-4 with 21 saves and a 1.44 ERA.

1982 NL News Recap with League Leaders

July 13, 1982

 At the All Star break Montreal's Tim Wallach has been a surprise power force in the NL this 1982 season. He leads the league in HR (26) and RBI (77). His teammate Andre Dawson is having a fine season too. He's 2nd in RBI (75), 4th in HR (19) and 5th in BA (.328). Other teammates, Tim Raines, leads the NL in SB with 48 and pitcher Bill Gullickson is 11-2 with a 2.57 ERA. They've been the main reason the Expos have been able to keep the surging St. Louis Cardinals with striking distance in the NL East.
Here are the NL League Leaders at the All Star break:
