This team could break the MLB record set by the Chicago White Sox last season for the worst record in baseball

2024 was a season that all Chicago White Sox fans will want to forget in a hurry.

The Sox finished the 2024 MLB season with a record of 41 wins and 121 losses (.253 winning percentage).

This placed them 5th in the AL Central division, 51.5 games behind the division winner, the Cleveland Guardians with their 121 defeats setting a new record for the most losses in a single season in MLB’s Modern Era (since 1901), breaking the record previously held by the 1962 New York Mets.

Rockies wretched season

With many baseball fans anticipating that it would take years and even decades before any other team could trouble that record, enter the 2025 Colorado Rockies.

The Rockies head to Chicago for a three game series against the Cubs and the Colorado team saw its horrific campaign continue over the weekend, dropping two of three at home to the New York Yankees and falling to 9-44 -- the worst record through 53 games in Major League Baseball since 1901. The Rockies are 0-17 in series this year after their 5-4 loss on Sunday.

Despite another loss in a season that has been full of them, Rockies interim manager Warren Schaeffer believes his team might be turning the corner soon.

“I think we’re getting closer,” Schaeffer said. “The results are not there yet. ... We expected to win that game (on Sunday), but it was good to see us push at the end. That’s all I’ve seen from the boys the last 10 games.”
