The greatest season ever was 1994. I watched all expos games from TSN to the French stations. No matter what of today and the future. My favourite team is the expos and 2nd the Phillies. These two teams chemistry in 1993 gave me the decision that these were to be my favorite teams in baseball. Thankyou to all Expos players for giving fans a memorable year.
A team must be brought back. Montreal's baseball history is to strong to not. Jackie Robinson and many other great players played and loved playing in Montreal.
Honestly, I'm not trying to be insulting or snotty. Did the Expos have a good fan turn out in the '90's? I know people like you loved them and I know -from my mom - how it hurts when your team is gone. (My mom cheered the Milwaukee Braves when they won the World Series and her heart broke when they went to Atlanta.) We had tons of baseball fans here in Milwaukee -but Atlanta was a "bigger market" like DC was a bigger market for the Expos. So I know what it is like to be an insulted second tier city, I'm wondering about the fan turn out after 94.
The whole situation and story is that when the strike happened in 1994 the Expos were the best team in the entire MLB. The people of Montreal said to hell rich owners and millionaire players and never went back. Averaging 3-4 thousand people per game. And the stadium was a cave not a ball park. I am not sure if you watched the attached video?
@@miked2654 To hell rich owners, yes, but if you were the best team in baseball, why didn't people turn out? If you don't like rich owners and players, I get it - but you can't blame the team for then moving.
I think it’s happening soon. Baseball America (I think that’s who it is) posted something from the commissioner about Portland and Montreal as the next 2 teams. Even going as far as to list divisions for both. I read it this morning. I saw on Twitter. Apparently the Tampa and Oakland Stadium issues may not be issues. Just food for thought. Don’t give up yet my Montreal friends. I will forward if I can.
I'm American, Chicago White Sox fan. Over here in the AL. I'm overall though a Baseball fanatic. Been to games in my League the American and in the National. Canada needs a two league two team setup. I went to a Blue Jays Game in Toronto, and it was a full house, man Canada wants and loves Baseball too. They need more. Montreal is an important city to Baseball history. Jackie Robinson was a Montreal Royal. It's a crying shame Canada doesn't have a two team Toronto AL-Montreal NL set up for a Canada Classic. Honestly MLB knows they fucked up and they owe Montreal the next Expansion team as the Reborn Expos. The NFL did it, they moved the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore and created the Ravens. Cleveland got mad and there were practically riots. NFL awarded an expansion team to Cleveland and they adopted the old Browns name and got the legacy rights. Same thing will have to happen for Montreal an Expansion Expos and the Washington Nationals give them Expo Legacy rights. But on some fun throwback days Nationals can wear Expos jerseys and maintain friendly relations with Montreal Expos. Sort of a friendly opponent two fanbases that get along. I don't think they should relocate Tampa or split with Tampa. Montreal is an NL town. Toronto is an AL town. They need and want an AL-NL Canada Classic.
I'm from Cleveland and a lifelong Indians (and NFL Browns) fan. 1994 was our breakout year too that was ruined by the strike, as we hadn't been contenders since 1959. In 1995 Art Modell moved our Browns to Baltimore. To this day, as bad as I felt that the strike ended our season, I cannot imagine how much it hurt Expos fans. And I completely sympathize with them and hope one day you get another team for your Stade Olympiq. We were able to continue on throughout the 90s, contending every year until 2001. The Expos were never this close again. Then MLB takes the team away. Horrible. I remember being hopeful to see an Indians/Expos World Series in '94!
@@rockvilleraven Yeah, kind of like how Hartford Whalers fans must have felt when the Carolina Hurricanes won the Cup in 2006. That along with the Quebec Nordiques when the Colorado Avalanche won it all the very first year they moved in 96 for that matter also.
Love hearing Pedro's story about pitching w/ the mannequin and him knocking the head so its looking at the catcher..lol...Felipe.." Pedro..what are you trying to do? "...." I'm trying to pitch inside Felipe "..." How do you hold the ball? ".. " I hold w/ 2 seams"..." I want you to hold it w/ 4 seams"...and from that the new and improved Pedro Martinez is born...so filthy @ 8:31 w/ the split finger..and the fastball after that you would be late on it everytime..
Would have been interesting how a braves expos rivalry would have gone if this team stayed together. The Braves were transitioning in 94 with a bunch of rookies like javy lopez, Ryan klesko, and chipper Jones (although he got injured in spring training and missed the whole season). As it stood no one was competing with the braves when that 94 rookie class matured from 95 to 05
As a Braves fan, I thought Atlanta had a chance to catch up. But I would’ve also been OK to see the Expos finally win a pennant. Stupid strike that never should’ve happened. Many fans still haven’t gotten over it
Statistically, there were other Expos managers that had a higher winning percentage, but in my book Felipe Alou had to be the best and wisest of them all.
And believe me the fans knew it as well. In the last years of the franchise he was always the one who received the biggest standing ovation on opening night
I was at the 15-0 beat down in SD. The Expos are the only team that made me leave early. I think I left by the 5th inning. Bring them back and put them back in the NL East.
1994 was really a year of "could have, would have, should have been ..." The Expos saw their opposite league rival, the Toronto Blue Jays, win two WS titles in 1992 and in 1993. The Expos understandably felt that 1994 would be their year, and, if there was a strike, perhaps it would be resolved quickly, with little interruption to the season (as was the case in 1985). The Cincinnati Reds were in first place in the NL Central, and the Expos occupied the top spot in the NL East when the strike started (I forget who was leading the NL West then). So, in reality, there was real hope that the Expos would finally get a WS Championship. They had started MLB play in 1969, some eight years before the Blue Jays. And the Expos had great pitching, speed, hitting, and defense. Then the hairbrained strike just had to occur, and it stretched into 1995.
I'm Expo fan born and raised in Washington DC if it wasn't for the 94 strike the Expos still be in Montreal I'm sorry to see the Expos leave but I'm very excited that they are in DC and won a World Series in 2019 the Expos 50th anniversary
I think Olympic stadium is ok because at night, If you're in a plane landing, you go around it and if there's a game playing. you probably could see what's going on. I hope they bring them back!
Can they possibly bring back this team? I love baseball and a big fan of the cubs but i call montreal my 2nd home..i would love watching baseball here once in a while..
No, they were never really that popular in Montreal other than a few times. Their record was dismal, in their 35 years, they only made the playoffs one time in 1981 which was a strike shortened season . But after 1994, their attendance and team crashed and never recovered
Great story. Great year. There needs to be a visionary investor to bring baseball back to where Jackie Robinson began to play pro ball. Montreal should have an MLB team.
There was talk that the Expos would play the Yankees in a de-facto championship round of sorts once the strike wiped out the rest of the 94 season. That of which obviously never happened, and sure would have made an epic World Series for certain too. The strike truly was the sad beginning of the end of the Montreal Expos, who could have had a serious dynasty in the making, had if that not happened either.
Im a Cubbie Fan but I sure do miss them Expos. They were scrappy as hell. ALWAYS found a way to scratch out wins and play good baseball with the least of resources. I so wish they could bring them back. They were the Davie to MLBs Goliath.

Yankees/Expos was the World Series many thought would have happened, and would have been epic for certain. The Indians had a very good team, but in no way were they better than the Yanks, nor White Sox that year though.
I always wonder why montreal is considered a small market team.... If you look today it wouldn't be big market but it would be middle of the pack in the mlb.
we loved the team so much but the strike (and the sellout that came the following years ...) and the departure of our last all-star player we had (Vlad Guerrero Sr.) made fans grew bitter and angrier at the owner and when MLB took ownership of the team, they do absolutely nothing to keep the expos in montreal so people stop showing up, it was so sad. Because after 1994, we had a couple of so-so year were we came close to be the best 2nd division team (and the fact that the Braves were so strong from 1996 to 2003) so the team was still good but never as good as the 94 Expos.
#BringBackTheExpos Felipe as GM and Pedro as Pitching Coach. He could give their pitchers a nasty attitude like Dave Stewart with Kevin Brown and Andy Ashby from my 98 Padres.
good team yes but expos fans just assume they would of won world series disregarding the fact that anything can happen in playoffs they could of been swept in nlcs for all we know
Ok then sorry they didnt want a Montreal team to win.... i never said Canada never won one you moron! Maybe they didnt want another canadian team winning it to keep Canada from taking americas game, like they have with the NHL!
What you should've said was.."Or maybe MLB didnt want another Canadian team to win the World Series"...which in itself is moronic..so there's that...but w/ever..carry on
CHRIS STARKILLER me and my best friend have the same thinking. 3 years in a row Canadian team winning World Series plus the Montreal canadiens had won the Stanley cup. To must $$$ in Canada. It's my opinion. I respect others opinions. Let's go expos.
Withhold the product for almost 10 years in a place without any pro baseball nearby and then parachute in 2 teams - one of which (Jays) is trying to expand their reach into Quebec with a radio package - and of course they'll be diehards just chomping at the bit to see anything. Especially in late March when there isn't much else to do as winter's last gasp goes on while the Habs stink things up for another year. These small samplings of meaningless games isn't a realistic way to gauge if a franchise can thrive there.
Ok i'm crying. Go Expos. For ever

damn.watching this makes missing the expos even worse,such a great team,that year.
With great players to get a world series ring in 1994.

If the expos come back I will cheer for them
I won’t since I’m from Toronto but I do want Montreal to get a team
Anyone here after the Nationals won the World Series? You talk about adding insult to injury for the city of Montreal
Sheesh
My opinion:. If the strike wouldn't have happened, the Expos would still be in Montreal.
In 94 it seemed like everyone except Braves fans were cheering for the Expos to take the east. Similar to Red Sox finally beating the Yankees in 04.
Expansion is coming. This may not be the end of the Expos!
So there might be six teams in the NL East
As a Braves fan, I thought Atlanta had a chance to catch up. But I would’ve also been OK to see the Expos finally win a pennant. Stupid strike that never should’ve happened. Many fans still haven’t gotten over it
still hurts
Class act with Pedro Martinez sharing the 2004 Red Sox World Series title with the fans of Montreal who lost their team earlier that year
I was just as, if not more excited, to see Raines in the batters box in his classic left hand hitting stance.
Statistically, there were other Expos managers that had a higher winning percentage, but in my book Felipe Alou had to be the best and wisest of them all.
Yeah, and he never would have had to buy a drink in Montreal again, had if his 94 squad been able to have finished what they started too.
And believe me the fans knew it as well. In the last years of the franchise he was always the one who received the biggest standing ovation on opening night
I WANT EXPOS BACK
@22:21....who's wearing uniform # 58?
Found it.....must be Joey Eischen. Baseball Almanac has him listed as # 48
Their fans never came back and never will. Still angry 😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬The 94 baseball still lingers to this day.
It wasn't because of a lack of fans in the stands that the Expos left, they didn't have a television deal nor a big radio contract.
I was at the 15-0 beat down in SD. The Expos are the only team that made me leave early. I think I left by the 5th inning. Bring them back and put them back in the NL East.
Montreal Expos probably would win it all if the 1994 mlb season continued on!
Then again, the Braves would have caught up and pass the Expos in the 1994 NL East race. Ask the 1993 Giants or heck the 2022 Mets
I'll take things that weren't going to happen for 500 Alex
mlb was scared of seeing another team from Canada to make it 3 straight years in the world series
