Can the 2015 Phillies become the worst team in franchise history?

The answer is no. They already have 10 more wins than the worst team in Phillies history. The 1883 Phillies, in the very first year of the franchise, went 17-81 with a .173 winning percentage.

They can, however, become the second worst team in Phillies history...but it will take a lot of work.

I did a little math to determine what it would take for the 2015 Phillies to finish with the second-worst record. It is a good challenge for this team and at this point, I am almost hoping for it. Maybe that makes me a miserable person.
