Championship's SHADOW: Best Players to Never Win a World Series
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2024
- Players who never won a World Series in their careers might be a somber topic, but the 10 I will discuss today did not need a championship ring to cement their legacies. The only specifications I have to make this list are that the player has to be retired. Players like Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani will not be on this list, as both still have time to win a title before their respective careers are over.

Also Robin Yount, Ryne Sandberg, Adrian Beltre, and Edgar Martinez off the top of my head. Particularly impressive is Don Mattingly who managed a near-HOF career and didn't win a World Series _with the Yankees._
That man is a HOFer. MLBs HOF is just petty asf
You can tell baseball is way different then basketball because no body looks at these guys as anything other then all times, ring culture is not a thing in baseball, thank god.
It's there, not as strong as NBA and NFL but it's there.
All sports are about winning. Not stupid statistics so you can defend some jerk player.
I disagree. There’s a LOT of fantastic HOF level players that didn’t make it in because they didn’t win. Heck just look at Stieb.
@@pandahammonds9590 He got a ring though, even if it wasn't an ideal way.
Real reason why he's not in the Hall is because the Jays have been giving the guy crap to no run support throughout his career, cucking him of wins that could have added to the 176 he did get. In 1985 he led the AL in ERA with 2.48 and yet his record was 14-13. Even when they were good for some reason they couldn't score when he was on the mound for them.
Killebrew had bit of a happy ending when the Twins won in 1987 when he was working as a team's commentator. He may not won it as a player but he finally got one in the end.
Very true!
How does he win as a commentator he didnt play
@@thejman8734 He worked under the team's employ, players weren't the only ones getting the rings you know.
Great video. One honorable mention that I think would’ve been a good one that comes to my mind would be Jim Thome. Dude was a beast, got elected to hall of fame, but never got a chip.
Edit: I looked up how many times he made the playoffs. Made it to the playoffs 9 times, his lone chance of winning a chip came in 97 when it was the Marlins and Indians. The same marlins team that took out the giants with Bonds
Biggio, Bagwell, Nap Lajoie, Sam Crawford, George Sisler
Great video! I somehow had no idea the Tigers never won a World Series until 1935, meaning they never one won with Ty Cobb.
I never knew before making this video! I assumed he won at least once. I’m glad you enjoyed the video 🙌🏼
After knowing a bit more about the guy beyond Al Stump's fan fiction I kind of wished he had won one.
A potentially interesting follow-up could be one exclusively great players that never played in the postseason to any capacity. There are a few off the top of my head that I think meet that criteria but would have to fact-check myself.
Definitely an interesting idea! Ernie Banks is the only guy I know of off the top of my head
There are a few who played before the divisional era (1969), but since then, it's just about impossible (even Mike Trout made it once). The closest thing to a great player I could find since then is Buddy Bell, a Hall-of-the-Very-Good type guy.
You did me the biggest of favors along with your grandpa with Sandy, now if it’s possible to get his teammate for a bit of Don “Big D” Drysdale 😎😎💙💙 he’s worthy of mentioning of the great pitchers 💯💯
Great video! If you plan on doing another in this series, I'd recommend Phil Niekro, Adrián Beltré, Gaylord Perry, Robin Roberts (who's already extremely underrated imo), Fergie Jenkins, Jeff Bagwell and Craig Biggio, and Rafael Palmeiro.
Bonds got robbed he should be in the hall of fame by now
Facts
I’m. a dodgers fan and I’m one of the people that agree
He's the only steroid player I support getting in the hall because (1) he was the single best steroid player of all time by a good amount and (2) he didn't cheat until Bud Selig made it clear he wasn't going to punish anyone for cheating. Mark McGuire, Sammy Sosa, and the rest of the anabolic steroid guys should never see their plaque in the hall because they cheated before Selig turned his head and pretended like we didn't see McGuire double in size.
Also Selig's plaque shouldn't be in cooperstown. Worst commissioner by far.
@@SconnerStudios Arod didn't cheat until he was with Texas in 2002 after the whole selig situation
@@SconnerStudios He cheated, so no Cooperstown.
I hope we (angels) can win one for trout before he retires, it’d b awesome to see angels win again. Been a tough go since 02 for OC, Vladimir Guerrero was close to reaching as well when we lost to Yanks back in 09.
Day 14 of asking for Ted Williams
If I was him, I would NOT do Ted just to piss you off.
Nobody likes pushy.
@@TheFaithfulAtheist damn bro don’t have to be mean 😢
@@TheFaithfulAtheistbully
I feel like this video called for an honorable mention segment. I think the comments agree. Without even scrolling I see a bunch of good one. As an Astros fan, Biggio and Bagwell come to mind!
I feel for all of these guys, except Bonds.
Good video 👍🏻
Yea, Ty Cobb, Ted Williams, Banks and Bonds were probably the best to never win the ring. Griffey Jr. as well. I think Mattingly might have won one in 1994, but the strike season squashed it.
Weird to think Kirby Puckett has 2. And Griffey has 0. Just so odd.
Off the top of my head: Mattingly, Sandberg, Santo, Fergie Jenkins, Thome, and Mauer.
I feel like using a Red Sock, a Cub, an Indian, or a Mariner would be lazy.
Mike Mussina.
Jr.s prime was maybe the best ever. Besides bonds /Ruth. But still comparable to best ever and I say top 3 peaks ever
Johnny Bench please!!!
Do you mean a video on him, because Bench definitely got a world series ring. In fact, his 75-76 Reds teams he was on were amongst the top couple rosters of all time, maybe with exceptions to the 1927 Yankees and 1967 and 2004 Cardinals.
@@SconnerStudiosI know about his rings I just want a video about his prime.He is my favorite player of all time and is the greatest catcher of all time (in my opinion)
@@JohnJohn-eg9rh He was one of my dad's favorite players too. Along with Pete Rose. It's pretty messed up how big of an industry sports betting is today, but they still won't put Pete in. I still believe they're going to wait until right after he dies to allow him in. Same with Curt Schilling, but for Curt, it's because they don't want him to have an induction speech that talks about how muslims, gay people, and latinos are destroying America lol. Pete might make a snide remark about how Selig treated him unfairly, but at least Pete's speech would be good.
@@SconnerStudiosyeah I completely agree with you
I dont even think the ring is whats the biggest shadow for bonds.
Nice video! Bonds is number 1 in career war. I think you said he was 4th in the video
Thanks!
Among all players he’s 4th: Babe Ruth, Walter Johnson, and Cy Young are ahead of him. Position players he’s number one
@@Cam23 yes you are right. I just checked and I was wrong
Bonds is # 1 among position players, and it would have been MORE if it weren't for the 94/95 strike and the 2005 injury season, as well as being in the leadoff position his first four seasons. But Ruth is #1 overall due to combining his pitching statistics. Sort of like how Ohtani lead in WAR during this past season with a 10 WAR because it combined his hitting and pitching. I don't understand how they calculate WAR for pitchers, as I feel it should be called something else, because it's based on different criteria. Ruth was insane though, 7 rings.
Psst, Todd Helton. 🗻⚾️
I'd put Kenny Lofton towards the top. Lofton played on a ton of playoff teams (which is why he played for so many teams). It's easy to say guys like Barry Bonds or Mike Trout, but they clearly don't have that special quality that adds to a teams' overall competitiveness and maybe belief in themselves to lead a team deep into the playoffs. A guy like Kenny Lofton who would be traded all over the place for borderline playoff teams is more impressive imo.
I love my Tigers, but I detest Ty Cobb!
Shoei new team is basically buying a title
Pudge video please.
Which one, Carlton Fisk or Ivan Rodriguez?
@@flame-sky7148 Ivan. Forgot Fisk was also nicknamed Pudge
Oh, yea that Pudge was great, as both of them were.
You neglected Negro League Players. Learn about Josh Gibson, Buck Leonard, Cool Papa Bell, Oscar Charleston, John Henry Lloyd, Martin Dihigo, Biz Mackey, etc.
That would be an entirely separate video focused on the Negro World Series I didn’t “forget” to talk about them
It's amazing that Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Ernie Banks, and Frank Robinson all came out of the Negro Leagues as late teenagers and they all except Banks were able to win a ring in the Major Leagues. Also Larry Doby, Monte Irvin were able to help their team win a ring. What's really wild is that five players who started their MLB careers in their 30's would have been HOFers had they been able to integrate in their early 20's. They are George Crowe, Luke Easter Sam Jethroe, Bob Boyd and Irvin (whose in the hof). These guys were balling in their mid thirties just entering in MLB. Lots of what ifs.
Cobb's career bav is .367
No, it isn't.
Baseball reference lists it at .366, so I went with that number.
In 1910, Cobb had two hits in a game the official record-keepers erroneously counted twice. This error wasn't discovered until the 1980s, which is why the record Pete Rose was chasing was 4191, even though Cobb really only had 4189 hits. Those two hits account for the one point discrepancy in career batting average.
1910 was the year Cobb and Nap Lajoie were involved in by far the most controversial batting title race in MLB history. It's a great story, if you haven't heard it, look it up.
EDIT: Nap Lajoie, there's another all-time great who never won a World Series.
60 game season do not count as WS tittle
I feel the same.
