1973 San Diego Padres (60-102) 5

In the lore of truly horrible teams these guys tend to get overlooked. Maybe its the low expectations of San Diego fans, maybe the laid back California atmosphere, maybe its because the Padre's are generally so forgettable.

Whatever the case these guys finished 6th in the NL West, a full 17 games behind the lousy Atlanta Braves in fifth. In a year where no NL squad cracked the 100 win mark, the Padre's put up a hell of an argument for despair.
