Chicago White Sox general manager Chris Getz had a surprising answer when he was asked what it would mean for the Colorado Rockies to break Chicago’s loss record from last year.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (38-26) presently boast the fifth-best record in MLB and lead a crammed National League West division, but they do not look like their usually dominant self.
