-113 after tonight. What's the worst 162 game run differential of all time? Has to be another record they will approach, right? Like, at this pace, they will be well over -300 before the season even ends.

On pace to break that too.

So, they got 4 in the 9th, so -109, not -113. Still disgraceful. 

FG expected wins now 58-104. Congrats on anybody that was able to get the under at anything above 62. There isn't a shot in hell we win 63 games. I'd probably say it's more likely we win 43 than 63 at this point.

Wondering if we can break these.

Just 3+ years left on that Benintendi deal. 

Teams that want to be great would have cut him lose by now.

I don’t know why they’re even projecting that many wins at this point. They’re on pace for 118 losses right now.

And just as with last season, they will trade the halfway decent players and likely be even worse down the stretch.

I'm with you. I think a team as bad as the Sox just is not something a projection system sees very often. There is every reason to believe this team really is a unicorn that will lose 110 plus. As I said I think it's more likely we lose 120 than win 60.

I'm a Detroit Lions, UM sports, Bulls, Sox, and then dad was a ND, Bears, Sox, Blackhawks fan. I don't follow the hockey so much so can't tell you anything there but I think this season is probably approaching the Millen era Lions season as the ultimate top 5 or so failures in modern (so post like 1975) big time money American sports. 

That Lions team was maybe the worst pro team of all time in our era, but this Sox team is up there. The 2003 Tigers are up there as well. Detroit appears way too often on this list but thankfully I managed to avoid becoming a Pistons and Tigers fan. Lions got me tho.

That Lions team was uniquely bad and cursed, we'll see if this White Sox team can top it.

Remember, JR said that only Getz could get the team to its current state.

Well, it's true, but not for the reasons they want it to be.
