2000-2009
9 Playoff Appearances - Rank: 1 (STL 2nd with 7)
8 Division Titles - Rank: 1 (ATL & STL 2nd with 6)
5 LCS Appearances - Rank: T1 (tied with STL)
4 WS Appearances - Rank: 1 (BOS, PHI, & STL 2nd with 2)
2 WS Titles (presuming 2009) - Rank: T1 (tied with BOS)<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'm not the one who made up "team of the decade," but doesn't Boston get some sort of intangible points for ending their drought? They're right up there in every other category, too.

They had the biggest WS title of the decade, but they're way behind the Yankees over the decade.

Playoff Appearances - 9 vs. 6
Division Titles - 8 vs. 1
LCS Appearances - 5 vs. 4
WS Appearances - 4 vs. 2
WS Titles - 2 vs. 2 (presuming 2009 for NYY)
