Biggest choke job ever=Yankees in the 2004 ALCS.
Biggest collapse=Mets 2007




Giants > Padres

Pathetic Stat of the Year- Matt Cain has a 3.70 career ERA, but has won just 29 of his 95 starts.

I don't need a poll. My vote is the 1995 Angels blowing an 11-game lead in their division.

Mets catching the Cubs in 1969. It was about the same scenario as the Mets this year. IMO, the only difference is that the pitching was much better because there were not as many teams. Which makes it harder, because there were not as many weak teams.

I forgot to add my vote for dishonorable mention: the choke job by Brooklyn that culminated with "The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!"

On a sidenote, the Giants helped themselves by stealing signals, but that's another topic.
