Get the Philadelphia Phillies mug.the best team in the NL East division which consists of the over-rated New York Mutts, the pesky Florida Marlins, the no longer-division king Atlanta Braves, and the cellar dweller Washington Nationals. Their 13-4 record at the end of the 2007 season completed a 7 game comeback to win the division and make the New York Mutts the biggest laughingstock in all of baseball (which they should have been all along)
