It should be noted that even if the A's have a worse differential than the '32 BoSox, the latter played 8 fewer games, and almost certainly would have been more miserable had they been given the chance. [Sorry, but I like to pile on the Red Sox when possible ]
scary last year they were -202 for the entire year (3rd worst with Cincy and Washington Worse)

and some how they are so much worse than that with time to get worse
scary
