The Astros' Bid for 120

The 2013 Houston Astros were widely regarded, before the season, as being potentially the worst team in baseball---ever. They were picked by Sports Illustrated to seriously challenge the 1962 Mets (40-120) and the 2003 Tigers (43-119) for ineptitude.

In this space every Monday, I will chart the Astros pace versus those of the '62 Mets and '03 Tigers after the same amount of games.

2013 Astros: 10-28
1962 Mets: 12-26
2003 Tigers: 9-29
