June 25, 200817 yr how bout the '05 padres...they have never been able to score the last few years...
June 26, 200817 yr One year the Mets won their division just barely being above .500. I'm going to say it was '88, but I am far from sure.

July 2, 200817 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 2, 2008 -> 01:16 PM) Yes but the real answer is what is significant about the '68 Yankees? They were pretty bad back in those days. It isn't worth researching to see if that was the worst season in Yanks history or whatever, but they did suck.
