Colorado Rockies 43-119 Season Marks One of MLB's Worst with Historic Negative Run Differential

The 2025 Colorado Rockies endured one of the worst seasons in Major League Baseball history, finishing with a 43-119 record that ranks as the third-worst since 1901 and the most losses by a National League team since 1962. Their run differential of minus-424 was the worst since 1900, far surpassing previous records and highlighting the depth of their struggles. The Rockies also set a franchise record for road losses at 18-63 and finished 50 games behind the division-leading Los Angeles Dodgers. The season's futility led to calls for significant organizational changes, including the uncertain futures of interim manager Warren Schaeffer and general manager Bill Schmidt. Owner Dick Monfort’s son, Walker Monfort, now executive vice president, is expected to oversee a potential top-to-bottom overhaul after three consecutive 100-loss seasons. Despite avoiding the modern-era record for most losses, the Rockies' 2025 performance solidified their place among the worst teams in baseball history by several negative metrics.
