would ever see. Up until the 2007 season, I assumed that the 1956 ND team (2 years before I was born) would remain the worst team in program history.
The '70 team had Aparicio as its ASG rep (a starter), Tommy John, Bill Melton hitting 33 HR (franchise record at time), and W. Wood in the pen as it lost 106 games. Others can try to compare this roster to that one.
We’re going to the World Series!
Well OK, even after the sweep, at this pace they’ll be 35-127.
I just looked up that 1970 team. Beyond John and Wood, the pitching was terrible, and even with them the staff ERA was the worst in baseball, and that included four teams that were only in their second years of existence. But this year’s team is last in both pitching and hitting.
