It might work out that those who are excited about football are the same fans who have seen their favorite baseball teams basically eliminated from playoff contention.
There’s still plenty of action on the diamond to go around and some players are still vying for a shot to lead the league in hitting, home runs and/or RBI.
For some MLB stars, though, the 2015 campaign will be one to forget. Many top players came into the season with the intent of leading their respective team to a World Series title, or just having a career-year, but they have fallen far short of their goals, and, therefore, consider this season a disappointment.

Let’s take a look at the biggest MLB disappointments for 2015 in terms of hitters. The guys on this list may shock you as you probably didn’t know they were playing so poorly.
