Blackwater 53393 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 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!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 (edited) 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.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 (edited) 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” Edited September 12 by Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 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. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
