  • 1994 Montreal Expos
    2021/08/20
    In this episode Mad Dog is digging up the story of one of the greatest baseball teams to never win the world series, the 1994 Montreal Expos. Unlike the rest of the teams covered in this podcast series, the '94 Expos were a victim of circumstances beyond their control. Offensively they were led by Larry Walker, Moises Alou, Marquis Grissom and Cliff Floyd, while on the hit their staff was led by Ken Hill and a young, 22 year old future Hall of Famer in Pedro Martinez. Behind a strong balance of timely hitting and stellar pitching the Expos raced out to the best record in baseball and seemed destined for a post-season appearance. However, labor disputes between the Owners and the MLBPA led to a work stoppage that would rob baseball of the World Series.

Led by the likes of Albert Belle, Jim Thome, Manny Ramirez and Kenny Lofton, the mid-90s Indians were one of the most explosive offenses of the decade. This squad would also advance to the World Series in 1997, but the 1995 version was better as they would dominate the American League, winning 100 games and finishing 30 games ahead the runner-up in their division. Their ferocious offense would face their greatest test in the '95 World Series when they matched up against the Atlanta Braves and their hall of fame pitchers. Mike Hargrove was the manager for Cleveland and joins Mad Dog for more insight on the season (25:30)
