As is the case each MLB season, there are a handful of teams that are already out of the running at the All-Star break. The Athletics, Rockies, and Marlins have all suffered tough starts that have them each 15+ games out of Wild Card position, but there is one team that has been head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to futility in 2024.
