With an 8-26 record, the Sox have a chance to be historically bad. The major-league record for most losses in a season in the post-1901 Modern Era is 120, set by the 1962 Mets, an expansion team. The Sox are on pace for 124 losses.
My recommendation to Sox fans is to sit back and chortle, the way you might delight in a terrifically bad community theater production or in a church choir that sounds like horse stables on fire. If you can't find humor in this dreadful rendition of the sport of baseball, if you can't laugh at the ineptness on display, you're going to burst a vein.
This Sox team has it all - the stock-character evil owner, the hapless manager and the cast of very marginal players worthy of a franchise apparently trying to lose on purpose, which is what rebuilds are. The team's best players keep getting injured, to the point where something nefarious seems to be at work. A dark lord?
