Following the 2025 World Series, the NL West has now overtaken the AL East with the most championships by a single division this century.

1. Four different teams winning it all in a decade shows how deep and competitive the division is

2. I would like to take this opportunity to laugh at the Mets just a lil bit.

3. Sorry guys just a typo, I meant to say the NL East is the only division with more than 3 different champions. Can’t edit the post sadly lol

4. Not sure why the downvote just for spiting facts lol

5. It’s called the Comedy Central for a reason

6. I had to really dig through the dust and the cobwebs of my mind to remember the Angels championship during the moneyball season

7. Obligatory pedantry only because it gets to knock one of those Yankees wins off:

   2000 was the 20th Century.

8. Damn the last year we can feel like the big man 🙁

9. r/NLBest prophesied this.

10. This image alone should get Yankee front office fired

11. Not me looking at the DBacks and thinking “Wait they lost in ‘23 though…” Being born in 2000 will make you forget 2001 sometimes.

12. 

13. I thought we were spelling something dirty

14. Y’all get in here and drag the Mets

15. The Yankees only have one championship this century. The 21st century started January 1st, 2001.

16. With those NL West logos arranged in such a way, it’s hard not to see “ASSS LA LA LA”

17. This chart rocks. It’s fun to look at.

18. Delete this.

19. Aussie relatively new to MLB here, why do people hate the Astros? Looking at this they’ve only won two world series recently. Doesn’t seem like much, what gives?

20. LolMets

21. 

22. The takeaway: Yankees suck.

23. Can the rest of you please pick up the slack?

    Actually nevermind, don’t do that.

24. >only the NL West has more than three (four different champions).

    Not to be pedantic, but I think you meant NL East?

    Otherwise nice post. I appreciate a visualization of it.

25. West Divisions,  best divisions

26. 2000 was last century fyi

27. Thank you for including 2000 in the 21st century

28. braves: IS THIS HAPPENING? IT IS!

    Phillies: THE PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES ARE 2008 CHAMPIONS OF BASEBAL

    Nats: SWING AND A MISS! A world series game 7 winning curly W is in the books!

    Marlins:…..and the marlins win the world series….

    Mets:

29. The NL east row depresses me greatly.

30.  there are two teams named after socks lmao

31. This is why the NL East is the best

32. I still can’t believe the Red Sox have four in the last 25 years it’s like a bad dream.

    

33. <long sigh……..> Lets Go Mets.

    The Mets, Tigers, and Rays are the only teams to have been in the Series twice in the century without winning one.

34. The most unbelievable thing about this is Angels winning the WS. I had to double check it actually happened

35. The worst Mets stat of them all

36. lolmets

37. Goddamm Arizona

38. That’s what you get for not spending enough, Yankees

39. >No division has less than two different champions, but only the NL West has more than three (four different champions)

    NL East?

40. Lol everyone in the division has one except the Mets.

    Losers.

41. Thanks a lot Toronto

42. Me earnestly to a young person; no for real i watched the Marlins, White Sox, and Royals all win rings

43. Ah, the Mets

44. East Coast still has the advantage ten championships to seven on the West Coast. Nine teams are on neither coast. So the west coast actually has the fewest champions of each geographic region.

    (I don’t count Houston as east coast nor Arizona as west coast in this discussion)

45. Mets dragging the whole division down as usual.

46. I think this is just a way to show how bad the Mets have been. Everyone this century in the NL East has been a world champion except for the Orange and Blue.

47. Missed an opportunity to put an asterisk on the Astros in the chart
