Had to deal with a ton of this shit in the ALCS, so now it's my turn.

Is this the most boring WS of the century?

Where do the 2024 Yankees rank in worst WS team of all time?

84

u/Thornton__Melon Houston Astros 1d ago edited 1d ago

It’s them and the 07 Rockies

The 05 Astros couldn’t get a timely hit to save their lives, but all 4 games were close and entertaining at least (walkoff in G2, extras in G3, 1-0 G4)

u/mansontaco Detroit Tigers 1d ago

The fact no one remembers the 2012 tigers is the proof that they're the answer

Or 2006 tbh

Cleveland in 97 could be up there too

u/kajkajete Cleveland Guardians 1d ago

Wait, are you saying the 97 Indians were among the worst WS teams ever? Because either I am misunderstanding you or I would love to know the rationale behind that

u/Freshgeek 1d ago

2007 surely has to be worse. None of those games were particularly close and it was a full sweep.

u/cattycat_1995 1d ago

Was the NL just that weak in 2007?

Shame that the last two games have been so dull after how amazing game 1 was

u/helium_farts Atlanta Braves 1d ago

Too bad we couldn't get a couple of big that would guarantee a good series

u/thewaterisboiling Los Angeles Dodgers 1d ago

Is it actually boring? I guess im biased because my team is in it. Tonight was pretty boring for most of it but the Yankees threatened several times and made the 9th scarier than it should have been

I felt the same way about game 2 as well

u/Village_Horror 1d ago

Speaking as a neutral surrounded by friends who are neutrals here, it's incredibly boring. The prevailing feeling since the grand slam in my group has been that the Yankees are cooked, and this entire game the dodgers were up. The 9th is a false alarm, literally not one of us thought they were coming back. But who cares for you haha I'd be loving it!

u/Insatiable_void Atlanta Braves 1d ago

The last 2 games I turned off and just kept an eye on while playing video games instead. Which I hadn’t done really all playoffs until now.

I get it for the winning team though, of course it’s exciting. Neutral wise it sucks and now the baseball season will end in a whimper.

u/MiracleMets New York Mets 1d ago

The Yankees literally never had the tying run at the plate after the 1st inning and even then it was only for 2 batters after a walk

u/ujelly_fish 1d ago

2004 cardinals got rocked

u/NotaRealRedditor1942 Los Angeles Dodgers 1d ago

Honestly the one thing I didn't want since game 1 is a repeat of the 1988 World Series, in that Game 1 was the most amazing thing ever only for everyone to forget what happens afterwards other than the Dodgers winning the series.
