Seems one of the things not taken in account for the "trash" teams who won the World Series is whether the teams suffered injuries to their key players during the season but had their full roster for the playoffs. The 2006 Cardinals, the "worst" team to win the Series, were injury plagued all year. So were the 2000 Yankees. Both of those teams had most of the same players from 2 previous 100 win seasons. Hardly "trash".

Over the years I've heard countless comments about that Cardinals team being the worst title winner ever. 83-78 regular season record. But let's not forget that they had 3 sort of fluky long losing streaks that season. They lost 8 games in a row twice, and 7 in a row also. I know that still counts in the books, but seriously, other than that they were 28 games above .500. Basically they had 3 bad weeks out of a 6 month season.

You say anything about their present chances, invariably you're told about all those PAST Series wins...As if they were relevant to NOW. The 98 and 99 teams were fantastic, the 2000 team, with many of the same players, was not. As for that dynasty, this year ended it. While the Yankees didn't sink into oblivion (I'm not sure, they might have missed the playoffs ONCE) they've won one Series since.

Pujols Edmonds Rolen Molina Carpenter Isringhausen Eckstein Taguchi Mulder Spiezio At the trade deadline, they got Ronnie Belliard and Jeff Weaver who were huge in the playoffs. They also caught lightning in a bottle with rookie pitchers turning it on late in the season: Reyes (game 1 WS winner), Brad Thompson, Josh Kinney, Wainwright, and Tyler Johnson.

If Pudge's flyball had been not behind Belliard,but behind Eckstein(SS), maybe Eckstein coudn't have caught it, and more runs allowed. Also at game5, Weaver did fine performance not only pitching,but also fielding,and butting(sacrificial bunt). But, after 2006 WS, both Belliard and Weaver left Cardinals...

The 03 Marlins had the best record since the all star break. They were not a fluke. They ran through 3 of the biggest historical clubs in baseball history. Let time play out and look at that lineup they had. Two of their players single handily won Boston red Sox their World Series years later with both players winning ALCS and WS mvp. That marlins team was young but stacked.

I totally Disagree the 87 Twins were the best team in baseball

87 wins was a low number for sure but by most accounts the Yankees were just bored towards the end of the season. They had stopped playing meaningful games at the end of August. But essentially this was the same group who won the series in 96, 98, and 99.

2000 wasn’t the first time two NY teams faced each other in a World Series, it was just the first one with the Yankees and Mets. it happened almost every year when the Giants and Dodgers were still in New York, when the Yankees won many of their early championships.

How are the 1988 Dodgers not on this list? Yes the pitching was great led by Orel Hershiser, but even on that side of the ball they lost Fernando Valenzuela for the season in May leading them to trade arguably their best hitter, Pedro Guerrero, to the Cardinals for John Tudor only to watch Tudor become injury prone and not be available for nearly the entire postseason and have 17 game winner Tim Leary develop arm fatigue late in the season leading to him having to be used out of the bullpen in October rather than in the rotation. The lineup started the year with only 3 good hitters; Kirk Gibson, Mike Marshall, and the aforementioned Guerrero. Guerrero was traded, Gibson famously got injured and only had 1 AB in the World Series, and Marshall's perennially bad back started flaring up during Sept and Oct leading to him being out of the lineup for multiple World Series games. This left prototypical 80s leadoff hitter (meaning no power and didn't walk much) Steve Sax and defense-first catcher Mike Scioscia as the best hitters in the every day lineup. Career utility-man and punch-and-judy .280 hitter Mickey Hatcher was the team's #3 hitter for most of the series. Dave Anderson, Franklin Stubbs (not one of his 2 or 3 actual good seasons), John Shelby (bad season), Alfredo Griffin (historically bad season), and Mike Davis (somehow much worse than Griffin's season) were the other lineup regulars. Hershiser himself was probably the 3rd or 4th best hitter on the team that they were sending out there in the Series and somehow they steamrolled the prime Bash Brothers Oakland A's in 5 games.

I'd have put the '87 Twins at #1. A 29-52 road record is just insane. The Cardinals were also down two of their best players for the Series.

THE FIRST MARLINS WORLD SERIES WAS IN 1997. LIKE YOUR CHANNEL, JUST KEEPING YOU ACCURATE!

Cards had same core that won 205 games the previous two seasons.

No thumbs up here. The WORST team is the one who cheats to attain their championship; aka the Astros. MLB refused to do what they should've done. And you missed the boat on calling them on the carpet for it. GLARING omission there, chief. 🚬😎

0:53 - The Twins would fire up their HVAC off and on between innings, which explains why the Twins batted so well with the "Dome Field Advantage". They artificially created an upstream that they could turn off and on at will.

1969 Mets, 1988 Dodgers. These two teams belong WAY at the top of the list, the ultimate examples of teams that had NO business being in the PLAYOFFS, let alone winning it all.

You forget that the Cardinals were 42-26 before the injuries hit. Albert, Eckstein, Rolen, Edmonds and Isringhausen. They all were healthy, except Isringhausen, by the end of the season. These are the main players who led the Cardinals to a 105-57 record in 2004 and a 100-62 record in 2005 (Eckstein) so you picking them one of the worse teams is you just looking at the 83-78 record and not doing your homework. Also, they beat the 97-65 Mets in the NLCS and the 95-67 Tigers in the World Series in 5 games!

What a horrible way to have home field advantage in the World Series all those years. You'd think it would be given from regular season record.

The 2019 Nationals started 19-31 but had the best record on the league since then. They were a tremendous team.

2000 Yankees? You're out of your mind. Their record doesn't indicate how good they were considering they won their 3rd straight world series and 4 out of 5.

You only have to be hot at the right time to win it all...

I think 2022 will provide another worst world series team. 6 seed Philadelphia Phillies.

Oh how I wish the 1973 Mets made this list. They were one win away from pulling off the ultimate miracle that would have topped 1969. Also I think the least impressive Cardinal teams during the regular season have proven to be more scary in the post season as opposed to the 100 win Cardinals teams. I remember how the 2011 Cardinals finished the regular season so poorly, but went on to upset a scary Phillies team in the Nlds.

It goes to show you the best team don't always win it's the one who's hottest at the moment that's going to win it every time.

This is why being optimistic around any teams in any sports, Reality says "no you can't " and optimistic says " yes you can, strange things happen, it could be you " it's best way to look at it

The 2000 Yankees had Clemens, Cone, El Duque, Pettite, and Dwight Goodwn… maybe the best rotation in WS history… on paper… and Jeter, Knoblach, B. Williams, Posada, Justice, O’Neill and Canseco… they sure look good

One thing I think is important to note about the 2006 Cardinals was how badly they had the injury bug. There was always some key ayers hurt until pretty much the very last second when the playoffs started and everyone conviniently was healthy.

Had the pleasure to be at the sept. 11 2006 cards game. Carpenter was awesome on the mound and threw a 9 shutout.

Let’s talk about how dominant the Dodgers have been for the last decade+ but still have nothing to show for it. To put in perspective, this years garbage Giants team would’ve made the playoffs if only 60 games were played. Goes to show that a small mentality will almost always lose out when the cards are down and it’s crunch time.

They’re the NL Yankees but even more hated

umm Florida won their second World Series in 2003 they won their first in 1997

The 2006 STL Cardinals were basically the same team as the combined 205 win teams from the previous two years. They suffered a lot of injuries throughout the 2006 season that affected their game. But they were mostly healthy by the season’s end and got in a groove in the post season. It wasn’t surprising that they won in 2006, as they were the best team in the MLB the previous two seasons and should have won a championship then. Plus, they probably had a chip on their shoulder for having lost the WS and NLCS in back to back seasons and had something to prove. Pujols (MVP in 05), Rolen, Edmonds, Molina in the lineup and Chris Carpenter (Cy Young winner in 05) and Adam Wainwright on the mound among others is a mighty good team. Their record overall was not an indicator of how good they really were. The WS victory was quite predictable after that mighty three year run.

Thank you for the advice

Entertaining video, but a lot of things I don't agree with. 1) The 1987 Twins are the worst team to win the World Series. As you said, they are the only team to be outscored yet win it all. They only won 85 regular season games, and about two-thirds of those wins came at home, where they played to the park's extreme effects and manipulated the ventilation in their favor. IMO, if you can't win 30 games on the road post-season and regular-season combined, you belong near the bottom. Also, back then only the division champs made the playoffs, and 3 AL East teams finished with better records than the Twins but missed the playoffs. 2) The 2003 Marlins are a bad choice for this list. First of all, Ivan Rodriguez wasn't one of their prospects. More importantly, they didn't have nearly the exact same roster in 2004. The Marlins have essentially never been a profitable team, even during their World Series runs, so after both 1997 and 2003 they made the team less expensive. In 2004, they reduced team payroll from 49 M to 42 M by shedding expensive veterans like Ivan Rodriguez and Derrek Lee. And even if Bartman didn't deflect the ball, there's no guarantee Moises Alou and his negative defensive runs saved would've made that leaping catch. 3) 2000 Yankees and 2006 Cardinals had bad records, but they were both coming off two prior dominant regular seasons, which deserves some mention.

The 2003 Florida's Marlins should be just as if not more legendary than the 69 Mets and 04 Red Sox. They went through the defending National League Champions in the Giants, and a very good Cubs team. They then went up against the Goliath Yankees and beat them. Oh, and Bartman didn't interfere.

The 1987 Twins may have been outscored during the regular season, horrible on the road, and had very few reliable pitchers. However, the only thing that counts at the end of the day is that every other team that was "supposedly" better than them was eliminated and they were the WS Champs! Lol

Get into the playoffs and its a new season. You just have to be the best team at the right time

The 2006 St. Louis Cardinals were a good team which saw too many key players on the disabled list including Pujols, Edmonds, and Eckstein so that is why they struggled during the second half of the season. By the time the playoffs came around, they all got healthy and that is why they won the world series. Most people forgot how good they really were in 2004 & 2005 and in 2006 they were essentially the same good team so they really were not a worst team to win a world series. With a core of Pujols, Edmonds, Rolen, Chris Carpenter and Wainwright, they were one of the best teams in baseball in the 2000s.

The 2006 Cardinals were sneaky they still had the core that won them 105 games in 2004 and 100 games in 2005.

While the 2021 Braves had to come back from some sluggish play to make the playoffs, it was not some fluke that they had a chance. This was a team that had already won their division three years in a row, and their core players like Fried, Freeman, Swanson and Albies had built up playoff experience. They had the foundation of a true contender but injuries and blown leads had them fighting to get back into the picture.

@@malbuff They played against their entire league and won the most games during a 162 game sked. This is a much better indicator of talent then a one game playoff or a best 3 out of 5 at the end of the season. Since we have gone to a playoffs (especially an extended playoffs) We've had teams win the WS who were not the best team in baseball. Last year was a good example. I'm a Braves fan but I know enough about baseball to know they were not the best team.

2000 Yankees starting pitching was definitely not trash. Looking at ERA blindly in the late 90s and early 2000s is incredibly misleading. Andy Pettitte, their second best starter, had a 4.35 ERA. In today’s MLB; not the best, around an 88 ERA+, but in 2000, that’s an ERA+ of 111. Id say they’re starting pitching was league average, especially since Roger Clemens was arguably the second best SP in the AL behind Pedro.

Madbum was GOATED

I always thought the 87 Tigers were due for a cool down after they chased the Blue Jays down from 7 games back at the start of September. They were on a heck of a hot streak going 21-12 from Sep.1 on and had to sweep the Blue Jays in the last series of the season to win outright. Blue Jays win one game in that series and we'd of had a one game play off. I remember attending all three games as I lived on campus in grad school at Wayne State and sitting with the bleacher creatures because those were the only tickets I could afford. Maybe do a list of epic collapses resulting in teams not even getting into the post season?

To Timbo303Official: Not my Marlins, I’m a Reds fan. I am just an avid follower of baseball and knew the Marlins story well, as you pay attention when a team wins a championship, blows up the team, then repeats the process less than ten years later. Plus the first Marlins championship came at tue expense of the Cleveland Indians. As a native of Northeastern Ohio, I can tell you that Cleveland fans are loyal, but they are terrible winners. They’ve won one championship in any major sport since 1964. So, when they are going well, they don’t win gracefully. As a Reds fan in that area, I had been turned off by this, before and was in 1997. When they had gotten to the World Series a. couple of years before, against the Braves, I had heard Cleveland sports anchors calling the Indians the best team in baseball, all summer, without having ever played the Braves (Also, I knew they hadn’t seen pitching like the Braves had, that year. The Indians had the best regular season record, but it had not been proven that they were the best team and it wasn’t. The Braves beat them in 6. Then came 1997 and the arrogance continued. But, this time it looked like they had a shot. They had Dave Justice now, who had torn them up in the previous series and they had gotten to the late stages of game 7 with the unbeatable Jose Mesa on the mound. Then, inevitably, Mesa blew the save. I was almost giggling for the vindication I felt. I felt bad for my friends, but felt justice was served. I believe when Cleveland fans learn to be better winners, then they may win again, but, for now, karma may be against them. So, no, I am not a Marlins fan, nor am I a fan of the home team where I grew up. I started following the Reds when I was 9, living near Columbus, Ohio ( Which followed the Reds at the time.). So, I followed the Big Red Machine through 2 championship series, 4 World Series and 2 World Championships in the 70’s alone and I am still a Reds fan. I loved our 1990 sweep of Oakland and was depressed when we lost my favorite player, Joe Morgan, last year. So, I am, definitely not a Marlins fan. I am a Reds fan for life.
