The Rockies were on pace for the worst-ever season, and then May was worse

One month ago, We have registered access On the poor begins before Colorado Rocky and Chicago White Sox To measure where they stood historically, and where they were in danger. Things have become a little better for White Sox since then – not good, but better – and somehow has been overlooked for Colorado, although it was poorly poor in an unbalanced way.

Rocky, after New York Mets invaded him during the weekend, are now sitting at 9-50 in the season-yes, they lost 50 games before they won 10. This start is not only the fastest to 50 losses in one season, better than 1932 Boston Red Sox Through two games, but also the worst total start through 59 games in Mlb Since the era of the modern game began in 1901. Any team that lost 51 games is 63 games of the season, when these Red Sox managed to insult; Rocky is already one on that mark. Colorado at the pace of 137 losses.

Meanwhile, White Sox improved from 8-23 to 18-41, with a winning rate from. 258 to .305 because of this. However, they are at the pace of 113 defeats. Again, this is not good, but it is better. It is still not good enough, as you will see.

The 10 worst records of the modern era by losses (1901-2024)

1. 2024 Chicago White Sox: 41-121,.

2. 1962 New York Mets: 40-120, 255 %

3. 2003 Detroit Tigerers: 43-119, 265 w %

4. 1916 Philadelphia Athletics: 36-117, 235 and %

T5. 2018 Baltimore Oreols: 47-115, 290 w %

T5. 1935 Boston Braves: 38-115,.

7. 2019 Detroit Tigerers: 47-114, 292 w %

8. 1904 Washington, Senate members: 38-113,.

T9. 1952 Petsburg pirate: 42-112, 273 w %

T9. 2023 Auckland Athletics: 50-112,.

T9. 1965 New York Mets: 50-112,.

T9. 1952 Pittsburgh Pirates: 42-112, 272 w %

(Maybe I noticed that the classification of total losses and the percentage of profit does not accurately match: This is due to the different lengths of the season. The 162 match schedule has not been presented until the 1961 season.)

The saying of any team is a lock of anything on June 2, it seems wrong, but it seems fair to suggest, at least, that Rockies will find themselves in addition to a place above by the end of the season. White Sox, as long as it lost at least 113 games, they will still have produced one of the 10 worst seasons of total losses since 1901. May has been an improvement, but still have some space to improve more.

Rockies is on their way to break the 121st loss record that White Sox just set last summer. It has already worse, as it was 6-25, and a smile of a loss 131 a month ago: they have doubled their losses for this season since then, with the addition of the three victory only. They may not lose 137 games in 2025, certainly, but the number that climbs as the number of games they play instead of a decrease in the noise sample that works in itself is not very encouraging regarding whether they will be able to avoid “not” not “not” not “Chicago’s recent historical.

Let’s check the percentage of winning as well, to see where these teams sit compared to … well, not the great, but you get this idea.

The 10 worst records of the modern era by winning for the percentage (1901-2024)

  1. 1916 Philadelphia athletics: 36-117, 235 watt %
  2. 1935 Boston Braves: 38-115,.
  3. 1962 New York Mets: 40-120, 255
  4. 1904 Washington, Senate members: 38-113, 252 watt %
  5. 2024 Chicago White Sox: 41-121,.
  6. 1919 Philadelphia athletics: 36-104, 257 wat %
  7. 2003 Detroit Tigers: 43-119, 265 w %
  8. 1952 Pittsburgh Pirates: 42-112, 273 w %
  9. 1909 Washington Senate members: 42-110, 276 and %
  10. 1942 Philadelphia Velez: 42-109, 278 w %

Rochiz winning ratio is 158. You can say that they have a small area of ​​the climate between their current position and the worst ever through this scale, and in 1916 Philadelphia for athletics. White Sox managed to get out of this particular conversation thanks to its performance in May, but it is not far from that so that they can rest. Another month like April and will return in this conversation, at least.

It is worth spending a moment to think about some other conflicts that happen about MLB. A may be the most worthy note, given that they sat on 20-16 on May 5, in the possession of the wild card, and they went 3-21 since that point … or, the same record that Rockies set together on the same extension. Athletics are now running with a loss of 100 losses themselves, which is not enough to attract attention as much as the terrible seasons go historically, but they are a team to monitor now. It is difficult to imagine that they put another extension like what they just have, but just to explain the risks, go 3-21 again during their next 24 games, will put A at 26-58, or, at the pace of 112 losses, mainly as White Sox is now sitting.

The other teams that go with a loss of 100 or more are safe, as much as they are historically related in this capacity. Oriols (22-36, 379W) at the pace of losses 101. Pirates (22-38, 367) at the pace of 103. Marleins It does not go with a loss of 100 losses, but it is on the right path for 97, and this can concern another in a historically meaningful way. There have been five teams of 100 losses in the MLB season before, and until now, five teams are going at least many defeats, with Marlins hovering near the triple threshold as well.

There is a lot of the remaining season, and things can change in this regard – the euriols may play more as it should, Marilynes may be good enough to avoid it, and may run athletics things again – but, as it is with Rockies and White Sox, this at least something that he can take into account with the passage of the season.
