9/22/24 [The Score] - White Sox tie modern-era record with 120th loss of season. The Chicago White Sox have officially hit rock bottom.With a 4-2 loss to the San Diego Padres on Sunday, the White Sox dropped their 120th game of the 2024 season, tying them with the 1962 New York Mets for the most defeats in a season during baseball's modern era (since 1901). They also set a new American League record for futility, breaking the 2003 Detroit Tigers' mark.Only one other team in the 19th century - the 1899 Cleveland Spiders, who went 20-134 - has ever lost more games in a season than both the 2024 White Sox and '62 Mets.Most losses in a season all time Team Record 1 1899 Cleveland Spiders 20-134 2 1962 Mets 40-120 2 2024 White Sox 36-120* 4 2003 Tigers 43-119 5 1916 Philadelphia Athletics 36-117 6 1935 Boston Braves 38-115 6 2018 Orioles 47-115 * Record as of SundayThe White Sox now sport a .231 winning percentage that currently stands as the worst of the modern era. That's four points below the modern record of .235 set by the 1916 Philadelphia A's during a 154-game season.Chicago looked like it might avoid infamy for at least one more day after Miguel Vargas' sixth-inning homer put the team ahead 2-1. But relievers Prelander Berroa and Fraser Ellard combined to allow three Padres runs in the bottom of the eighth. Andrew Vaughn reached base with two outs in the ninth before Robert Suarez struck out Gavin Sheets to seal the team's fate. They did it. The White Sox have lost their 120th game on the season.

They also dropped to 0-102 when trailing after eight innings.The White Sox have six games remaining to try and avoid setting the modern standard for futility outright. They'll return home to host the Los Angeles Angels in a three-game series beginning Tuesday before finishing with three at Detroit.

Interim Sox manager Grady Sizemore implied Vargas is pressing too hard as he tries to impress in his new surroundings. “When you're coming into an organization, you want to impress people and you want to just go off,” Sizemore said before the Sox' game Saturday against the Tigers. Acquired from the Dodgers as part of the three-team deal that sent Michael Kopech to Los Angeles and Erick Fedde and Tommy Pham to the Cardinals, Vargas' Sox tenure has gotten off to a slow start.

7/20/24 Dodgers' latest move hints at possible roster change. “Miguel Vargas taking ground balls at 3B again … have to wonder if Dodgers are getting a little more serious about moving Vargas back to the INF with as little production as they're getting at 3B since Max Muncy suffered oblique strain in mid-May.” The Dodgers have been predominantly platooning Enrique Hernandez, Cavan Biggio, and Chris Taylor at third base, and the results have been less than ideal.

6/17/24 Dodgers Wanted Miguel Vargas To Work On Defense In Triple-A. Playing time was scarce for Vargas as he only played in eight games since being called up on May 17. Vargas has shown enough with the bat to warrant a bigger role, but the missing piece holding him back from receiving consistent playing time this season had to do with his defense and lack of experience in the outfield. Despite his previous infield experience, Vargas has been limited to playing left field in both the Majors and Minors this season, but there have been growing pains at the new position.
