Locked On Phillies - Daily Podcast On The Philadelphia Phillies

The NL East may just be the toughest division in all of baseball between the big spending New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies and the defending champion Atlanta Braves. Who will win this division this year? Our answer may surprise you! You would have thought the Mets are the team to beat here, with the way we talk about them, but this team has won exactly two division titles since the turn of the century. Will this be the year the Mets get their third? Oh, by the way, we haven’t yet talked about the team that represented the NL in the World Series. What chances do we give the Phillies of taking the NL East division crown? Are the Miami Marlins a playoff team? What is the most interesting thing about the Washington Nationals this year?
