Bryce Harper Calls NL East Baseball\'s \'Best Division\'

[RealGM Wiretap]

Bryce Harper sees the National League East as the toughest division in baseball.

\"I think this is the best division in baseball; I don\'t think that\'s even a question,\" Harper said. \"We have five teams ... that are really good. I think this is going to be a juggernaut of a division.\"

The Philadelphia Phillies finished in third place last season, four games under .500.

Not a fan of his, but he is absolutely correct in that statement. The NL East is the best division in baseball.

He said it was the best divison in baseball so when the the phillies win only 70 games he can say i told you that it was going to be tough. Only 2 teams are going to fight for the division. They are the mets and braves

Not sure you can say the NL east is the best division when the Dodgers and Padres are arguably the 2 best teams in all of baseball.
