Counterargument: The series is really interesting in its display of perhaps the most favored team in World Series history (to that point) systematically imploding one game at a time. Anthony Reyes (the worst World Series Game 1 starter of all time?) beating a future HOFer, and then Detroit's comedy of errors in St. Louis make things more interesting than, say, the 2007 World Series a year later

Tbf to the Cardinals regular season record, they had dominated the two previous years with essentially the same team. They just had a lot of injuries during the 06 season, but had their dominant lineup fully healthy for the first time all season once the playoffs started.

Little late here - I totally understand where you’re coming from! I am a Birdinals fan and I believe that if you make October baseball, you’ve got a shot. I’m pretty certain this ‘06 team was the worst record to ever win a WS, but bargain ball is still how the Birdinals do it (sorta) - stay in contention, make playoffs, maybe pull something out your ass. Cardinals have money but act like they don’t. Idk, I just love baseball and hope it does well hahaha.

My take on the 2006 Cardinals and this series is different. Their margin of success was so slim that individual performances by role players were vital. If Ronnie Belliard hadn't made the magnificent play he made in the San Diego series. . .If Taguchi hadn't hit the homer in the Met series. . .If Spiezio hadn't tripled in the Met series. . . If Eckstein hadn't been johnny-on-the-spot during the Series. That is what makes baseball great. (At least it was great until recent, idiotic rule changes that have ruined the game.)

As a Cardinals fan the disappointment of the 2004 season really sucked. It was a very good team, winning 105 games. It’s definitely more fun to get in the postseason with low expectations when/if you can succeed. Remember the 2011 season we made the playoffs on the final day of the season. Unfortunately though the 2006 and 2011 seasons gave the Cardinals front office all the more reason to have a pray and hope type of philosophy when putting a team together. Hope you are good enough to win a weak central division then hope things happen to go your way.

You’re right about the World Series being very “mid” this year. But you’re dead wrong about this team being a “bleh” team. You have to realize that three years prior the Tigers went 43-119 and looked forever doomed, not making a playoff appearance since 1987. That Tigers team came out of nowhere. It was loaded with talent. Verlander won the ROY, Joel Zumaya was hitting 105 before a guy named Chapman did that on a regular basis, the line up was loaded with talent. Pudge, Chris Shelton with his amazing one month, later replaced by Sean Casey, one of the best pure hitters I’ve ever watched in Placido Polanco, Carlos Gullien, that bum Brandon Inge had his best season ever, Craig Monroe - who hit 17! 17! Home runs in the 7th inning or later that season, 27 on the year, Granderson, who was a budding star and the always dependable Ordonez. That was not just some “meh” team. That was a great squad filled with young and the right vets. They needed Leyland to bring it all together and they did. And that’s another thing, Leyland hadn’t managed in SIX YEARS! In his first year back he takes a team that hadn’t won anything in almost 2 decades to the World Series. Good video, but man, you got that part wrong.

That Tigers team was on fire during the first two rounds of the playoffs. Sitting for a week they went completely cold. You'll never convince me Detroit doesn't win if they'd gone right into the series. Detroit's lineup went from hitting almost .300 as a team to under .200 in the series. That wasn't because of an all star pitching lineup by the Cardinals.

Great video. As a Cards fan I do agree is was boring but I was 29 yrs old and waiting for so long to see another championship from them. I will take this. You did mention even though Cards season was bad, 2004 was a year that they should have won and 2005 slipped away from a hot Astros team. Either way you look at this, between 04 - 06, Cards were bound to win at least one. Add 3 future Hall of Famers (Molina will get there soon) with Rolen and Pujols, a HOF manager with LaRussa and a should have been Hall of Famer with Edmonds, that’s a really good team. If you ask my opinion, I forget the 2013 WS. Hated that series. We all knew Red Sox were going to win again and Matheny did not know what the heck he was doing.
