Overview

  • Colorado’s 7-6 victory over the Angels on Sept. 20 secured their 42nd win, ensuring they will not surpass the 121-loss mark set by the 2024 White Sox.
  • The Rockies sit at 112 losses with eight games remaining, putting them on pace for roughly 118 defeats.
  • Colorado’s minus-403 run differential is the worst in modern MLB history, surpassing the 1932 Red Sox and 2023 Athletics.
  • A 5-25 April and a 9-49 start through May prompted the firing of Bud Black about 40 games into the season, with Warren Schaeffer taking over.
  • Since June 1 the Rockies are 33-63 and 7-43 in games decided by five or more runs, reinforcing this as the franchise’s worst year.
