On Sunday afternoon in the Windy City, the Colorado Rockies were swept by the Chicago Cubs. The loss was their 99th of the season, cementing a new franchise record for losses with seven games remaining in the 2023 season. For reaching the century mark in losses it appears to be no longer a matter of if, but when.
The Rockies’s remaining seven games will all come at home via two series against teams that have cemented victories in their divisions: the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Minnesota Twins. While it’s possible the Rockies may hammer out a win or two over this stretch, the most likely scenario is that their 100th loss will come against the dreaded Dodgers tomorrow afternoon.
