Blackwater 53393 Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 The White Sox are winning about one out of every four and a half games or 22.5%!! At that rate they would lose 126 games!!

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 12, 2024 Posted September 12, 2024 1916 A’s have the lowest win % because they played fewer games than the ‘62 Mets so there is also that record. need to lose 124 for that so they are on pace to be worst of the worst.

You’re right the Mets played 162 games the old Phil A’s played 154
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 12, 2024 Posted September 12, 2024 In ‘62, after they had lost 100 games, one of the NY papers stopped carry the METS in the NL standings because “it wasn’t professional baseball”
Rye Miles #13621 Posted September 12, 2024 Author Posted September 12, 2024 In 1899 the Cleveland Spiders lost 134games. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1899_Cleveland_Spiders_season

Rye Miles #13621 Posted September 12, 2024 Author Posted September 12, 2024 The White Sox are now at 114 losses, just got swept 3 games by Cleveland. Go White Sox!!
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 12, 2024 Posted September 12, 2024 Next six games against A’s and angels, maybe they can win one.
Blackwater 53393 Posted September 14, 2024 Posted September 14, 2024 When the current record was set by the Mets, they were a first year expansion team that was assembled from the leftover players of teams that had been released or sent down to the minors and by very young players who were drafted, some straight ot of high school!! The White Sox are a team that has been around for well over a century! They have an extensive farm system, (minor league teams that serve as training and practice teams) to draw from. The team traded and sold several players to other teams around the “trade deadline” and one particular player that several teams were interested in made statements that pretty much guaranteed that he would NOT be traded. Sadly for the fans, this is a debacle of the team’s own making.
Subdeacon Joe Posted September 14, 2024 Posted September 14, 2024 I don't recall ever seeing a team 51 games behind.

Team being the entire organization. Having watched several Sox games, you can see a few players that are “playing out the string”. Now would be the time to get some Major League experience for some of the promising players on the farm teams!!
Blackwater 53393 Posted September 15, 2024 Posted September 15, 2024 Walk Off homer in the bottom of the ninth! Sox actually win one!!
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 16, 2024 Posted September 16, 2024 The A’s must be giving the backup players a chance to get experience.
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 16, 2024 Posted September 16, 2024 B’lieve it or not, the pale hose swept the Rays back in May.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 17, 2024 Posted September 17, 2024 They did have some trades before the deadline.
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 17, 2024 Posted September 17, 2024 8-4 completing their second sweep of the season.
Blackwater 53393 Posted September 17, 2024 Posted September 17, 2024 Third in a row, but not a sweep! The previous two were against the Athletics. This was the Angels!
