Looks great. Just one note. The current modern era loss record is 121 Chicago White Sox which was set last season.
That’s why I suggested 122.

Great catch - today I have to battle with ChatGPT for every little thing. The last criteria was for range-market with only one winner. That's not what we wanted. Here is the revised one, let me know what you think - also can you give me the close date:

Resolution Criteria: Rockies Futility Records (Set Market)

This market will resolve based on the final regular season record of the Colorado Rockies for the 2025 MLB season, as officially recorded on https://www.mlb.com/standings at the conclusion of the regular season.
Each option will resolve independently:
  • Rockies lose 122+ games (modern loss record) — Resolves Yes if the Rockies finish the 2025 regular season with 122 or more losses, breaking the modern-era loss record.
  • Rockies lose 135+ games (all-time loss record) — Resolves Yes if the Rockies finish with 135 or more losses, breaking the all-time MLB record.
  • Rockies lose fewer than 122 games — Resolves Yes if the Rockies finish with 121 or fewer losses.

Notes:

  • The modern-era loss record is now 121 losses, set by the 2024 Chicago White Sox.
  • The all-time MLB loss record is 134 losses, set by the 1899 Cleveland Spiders.
  • Only regular season games count. Postseason results do not affect resolution.
Source of truth: MLB.com final regular season standings
Resolution timing: After the Rockies complete their final regular season game and the official standings are published.

I love how often the Spiders are being mentioned lately.

It’s a better name than the Guardians. They should have reverted back to the Spiders when they changed the name from Indians.
