Plus: Huge 3-team trade, more FA signings
One of the best stories of the 2022 postseason was the ending, at last, of the two longest playoff droughts in Major League Baseball: The Seattle Mariners (who hadn't made the playoffs since 2001) and Philadelphia Phillies (who hadn't made it since 2011). Not only did they break through, but they won their first series (and more for the Phillies, of course). There is nothing more fun than watching your team in the playoffs, and those two fanbases had waited a long time for that opportunity.
But now that they've broken through, they are no longer the teams with those longest postseason droughts. Now there are only seven teams who have gone at least five years without experiencing October baseball. Will they be able to end their own skids this year? Let's take a look at each team's chances, from the longest skid to the shortest. |
