Where does the Cardinal/Cub rivalry rank amongst others in the majors?

obviously the top two are yankees/sox and dodgers/giants but where does it rank after those two? does it end up at #3?

When both are good top 2. When one or both suck then nowhere near.

You forgot Marlins/Rays

I think most would put it ahead of Dodgers/Giants, if the Cubs would ever be worth a shite then it would definitely be 2.

the red sox and rays were fun to watch a couple years ago

It is in the discussion for the second best rivalry. The best part about it is that the Cards are so damn unlikable.

Mets Phillies is excellent when both are good

1.yankees/sox
2-3 then dodgers/giants or cubs/cards are interchangeable depending on competitive status of one or both clubs.

Definitely, both need to get good at the same time and it would take off

im biased but what will always set the giants dodgers rivalry apart is a) the balance and b) the fact that it straight up survived a cross country move

yea, a september series with both teams in the hunt for the division title or the wild card would be crazy

Back in the 90's it was fantastic. Now, meh.

yankees/sox
In spite of all the talk about it yanks/sox has only been consequential a little bit in the last decade of my lifetime.
It is series largely dominated by yankees. Granted, many media are east coast red sox fans tho so they'll turn a bartman story into a red sox reference

dodgers/giants
Mostly regionalized IMO. They haven't both been great at the same time since maybe the Will Clark Giants versus the Lasorda Dodgers.
Cards/Cubs is a surprisingly even series which tells you a lot about it being a rivalry when you consider the relative success of the two teams.

I miss the Mets/Cards rivalry under Herzog/Johnson. Those were some great years in baseball competition... and the winner take all no wild card result made it consequential
