White Sox approaching MLB record for losses draws sympathy from surviving 1962 Mets
With the calendar on the verge of turning to September, the Chicago White Sox have already surpassed 100 losses this season. Going into Labor Day weekend, the White Sox have 27 games remaining on their schedule and are 17 losses away from breaking the major league record for most losses in a single season.
The 1962 New York Mets lost 120 games, a mark that lives in baseball infamy, a record with which no MLB team wants to be associated. The 2003 Detroit Tigers came close, very close, to matching the Mets, losing 119 games. Recent teams that also challenged the '62 Mets were the 2018 Baltimore Orioles (115) and the 2019 Tigers (114).

As a die hard Mets fan, I am rooting for them to break the 120 loss plateau so my team isn't the worst in modern history. Plus, it is such a great accomplishment in crappiness that will be remembered forever. 119 losses is bad, but not 121 bad.
