Colorado Baseball Team Faces New Season: Rockies Ready to Compete
In a grim turn of events for the Colorado Rockies, their dismal performance on Monday afternoon at Wrigley Field saw them suffer a 3-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs. This defeat has pushed their record to a historically low .167 winning percentage, putting them on track for a season that could potentially shatter the Modern Era record for losses in a single season.
Currently standing at 8-42 after 50 games, the Rockies are on pace to finish the season with a record of 27-135. Such a total would eclipse the current Modern Era record for losses, a feat achieved by the 2024 Chicago White Sox, who had lost an astounding 121 games in a single season.
However, maintaining such a pace throughout the entire season is a significant challenge. The unpredictable nature of baseball means that the Rockies' actual performance could vary significantly as the season progresses. Nonetheless, their current trajectory suggests they are on course to surpass the 1899 Cleveland Spiders' record of 134 losses, a mark that stands as the most losses in a single season in Major League Baseball history.
