Braves finally got a Cy Young winner in the 21st century. Who woulda thought it'd be Chris Sale in his comeback season.

I will tell you who will NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER win the World Series, the Pirates. The Pirates are a joke and a disgrace to the City. The owner is a low class hillbilly thief that doesn’t give a damn about winning and only cares about profit

Calling 2005 a snub for Lee but not 2006 a snub for Pujols is crazy to me

20 home run Jake Rogers?

J DeGrom over Hyun Jin Ryu was bs also.

Pedro got robbed in 2002! He also got straight up hosed out of his MVP in 2000!

Pedro was straight up Robbed of his 2000 MVP, as well as his 2002 Cy Young!

BASEBALLLL YEAAHHHHH

Verlander was robbed by Porcello and Snell. Snell is a bum, period.

What about won loss record? You play to win the game. You and your metrics...it is all smoke and mirrors if you discount the most important stat.

Came from airtime thrills!

It didn’t go exactly the way you predicted it would go by any means, especially that Brewers prediction lol, but if you would have just gone with NYY over SEA, I think you would have gotten most of the later rounds of the playoffs correct, with the exception of the World Series. I don’t think the Orioles will beat the Dodgers. I think the Orioles will beat the Tigers in the wildcard round with a couple comfortable wins where the Orioles get to Skubal early, and he winds up going deep into the game anyway, but Burnes is virtually unhittable and with four runs early the Os cruise to a 5-2 game 1 win, and then game 2 is more of the same where the Orioles score a few early, but the Tigers score a couple in the 7th to make it close and the Orioles seal the deal with a couple runs in the 8th/9th and win 4-3, but the game wasn’t as close as the score insinuates after a bottom of the 9th 2 out solo homer from Detroit. Then the Orioles and Yankees square off in the ALDS where the Orioles do what they’ve done to the Yankees all season and that’s dominate. The Orioles win the first 2 in NY and then seal the deal at home in game 4 after losing a tough extra innings game 3. The Os head to the ALCS where they meet the Guardians and have an explosive seven game series filled with bottom of the order heroics while the big boppers are mostly quiet and high leverage, big name relievers giving up runs while names you’ve never heard or haven’t heard in a while step up big. A series of opposites happening in more than half of the games, but game 7 is decided by starting pitchers and relievers doing what you expected them to do and the big bats doing all the hitting and Baltimore prevails in a 3-2 win after 6 games where the lowest scoring affair of the bunch featured 9 runs combined. Then Baltimore meets the Dodgers in the fall classic where the dodgers get their asterisk removed from the tainted 2020 World Series win and the Orioles wind up with this series loss being the best thing that’s ever happened to the franchise because money is spent to bring back Burnes and Santander, other moves are made and between all that and the likes of Bradish, Bautista, Means and Wells returning from the IL next season combined with the sour taste in their mouths from the 2024 Fall Classic loss, the Orioles go on to win the World Series in 2025 and 2026. Thus solidifying them as baseball’s newest dynasty with 3 division titles in 4 years, 3 straight AL pennants and back to back World Series wins representing the first four years of the dynasty.

Without a doubt when fully healthy no one’s rotation can compete with the Braves - Fried - Strider - Sale - Lopez - Schwllenbach The Mariners would be second

Eddie Murray's 1980s.

You could also add CJ Wilson and Jered Weaver

7:50. First no hitter against the Cubs since Sandy Koufax's perfect game (1965) a span of almost 50 years, breaking the record set by the New York Yankees, who went 45 years without being no hit 1958-2003). In fact, the no hitter pitched by Hoyt Wilhelm remains the last solo job by an opposing pitcher. Fun fact-The starter for the Yankees was none other than Don Larsen, who threw a perfect game against the Brooklyn Dodgers in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series, but by the time Baltimore got the lone run of the game on a home run by catcher Gus Triandos, Larsen was already out of the game. Unless I'm wrong, Larsen was the only pitcher involved in two no hitters involving the Yankees, one for, and one against.

So what if a combined no hitter was pitched? It's still a no hitter.

This is a great video! Thank you for indeed doing this 😊❤️. You indeed followed through with your plan of doing this 10 year period. Thank you truly. It is kind of interesting how obvious many of the death blows are huh.

As a Mets fan I like the irony that the Yankee heroics were provided by Jim Leyritz, Scott Brosuis (twice), Chuck Knoublach, Chad Curtis, and Luis Sojo ...

Wait holy shit are this channel and airtime thrills run by the same person???

Where’s my boy Jankowski??

I’d argue the death blow in 07 was Beckett striking out the side to start the World Series

Scott Spezio's Game 6 home run may not have been a death blow, but maybe more of a "wtf was that?" haymaker and then just kept going The Angels flipped a switch after that. And the Mets/Yankees Subway Series was a great series, Clemens being a roid rage idiot notwithstanding.

The trash cans got snubbed in 2017.

Arietta had more wins innings and strikeouts. Hardly a robbery

I can at least watch 2011 now after my Rangers finally won

1986, Mookie Wilson's grounder getting past Bill Buckner

Are you airtime thrills

I don't think the 2014 World Series death blow was exclusively that RBI single. If I were to pick one myself, I think the double play at 1:10 was soul-crushing both for the fans and the players, and MadBum hadn't even come out yet. The Royals were tenacious that postseason, putting up crooked numbers and coming back from deficits against all opponents - the only time they couldn't was after that DP.

Where is the pirate rotation?

3:03 - that error occurred in the 11th inning.

The problem with the Yankees though is they don't have enough outside of Judge and Soto. The 2 of them are super humans, especially Judge, but the rest of the lineup is just not reliable enough. Jazz Chisholm has been great so far but he'll inevitably cool off. As long as he stays great defensively though, it'll just be what it is. Anthony Volpe has been heating up, but I'm just worried he will come back down to earth again soon.

A name that also Haunts Cleveland fans to the fetal position, José Mesa

Man f joe carter. That dude ruined my childhood haha🖕🏻

The only death blow I feel is how consistently disappointing the returns for every Tigers player traded this deadline.

Those braves really nailed it in ‘95, but they could’ve won it back to back in ‘96. I have a feeling this season will be a rematch of the Indians and braves again

Perhaps a video grading the trade deadline coming up? Bobby Witt Jr for AL MVP.

As an update in 2024, only 5 of these players are left. The others are injured or traded and we are still in first place in the AL, ahead of even the Yankees.

Just finished watching a cubs vs royals game,im happy,salvador perez hit a 3 run home run

McCutchen deserved it in 2013, he took the Pirates to the playoffs for the 1st time in like 21 years

Even as a Dodgers pessimist thanks to their playoff embarrassments over the last few years (so much so that I just am sitting this season out), I think you are underestimating just how good LAD can get in the second half of the season. It happens every single year. That false hope will be fed again to the fanbase. They will win 100 games, I can guarantee you that.

No Donaldson?

Gerrit cole should be 9 at best

Good Video but I think that ERA+ should have been used instead of ERA because of the peak of the juiced balls of 2019 and the years prior. Overall a great video and good list.

I wish it was easier for 1st baseman to accumulate WAR, because Carlos Delgado was the best offensive player in the AL in 2003 on a team with a WAY better record, but lost because he was up against a shortstop, who just automatically produce better WAR due to their position. Also Donaldson and Trout is WAY less egregious if you look at fWAR, it's 9.3 vs 8.7 which IMO the Jays winning the division makes up the difference, to where I don't think it's even a snub.

IMO, I'd go Snell 2023 as the worst because he led the League in walks.

you should rank last 10 world series winners or ROY winners next

crazy that a 2.84 ERA was TENTH

Good list

Hopefully Lugo brings the Cy Young to KC this year
