Oakland Athletics fans react to team being on pace to break MLB's worst record: "All while our owner is profiting" "That's insane"

The Oakland Athletics are on pace to make history, but not the good kind. They're on pace to break MLB's worst record in a 162-game season, held by the 2003 Detroit Tigers, who went 43-119.Oakland is the worst team in the league, holding a 10-44 record. They would finish the season with a 30-132 record at this rate. That would break the Tigers' record by over 10 games.Talkin’ Baseball@TalkinBaseball_The 2003 Tigers hold the worst ever record in a 162-game season at 43-119The A's are now a third of the way through their schedule and are on pace to finish 30-132164862The 2003 Tigers hold the worst ever record in a 162-game season at 43-119The A's are now a third of the way through their schedule and are on pace to finish 30-132 https://t.co/y2CsYBn5GLThis is depressing for Oakland fans battling their owner to keep the team in Oakland, which is unlikely to happen. The team has already put out a rendering for their new stadium located on The Strip in Las Vegas.The team's potential move upset the mayor so badly that she dropped negotiations with the team on the spot. This won't be a season that athletics fans will want to remember.&quot;All while our owner is profiting smh,&quot; one fan tweeted.WORLD SERIES szn💚💛@classics_hood@TalkinBaseball_ All while our owner is profiting smh36@TalkinBaseball_ All while our owner is profiting smh&quot;That's insane,&quot; another fan tweeted.noah@nout440@TalkinBaseball_ that's insane@TalkinBaseball_ that's insaneMarcelo Vera Cruz@mvcs03@TalkinBaseball_ And you expect people to go the games?1@TalkinBaseball_ And you expect people to go the games?Kyimoree@CKyimoree24@TalkinBaseball_ And for fans who think Las Vegas is gonna change this... it won't!1@TalkinBaseball_ And for fans who think Las Vegas is gonna change this... it won't!The Oakland Athletics are facing historically-low attendance numbers.

Fans can't even enjoy their potential last moments with the team because they're performing so poorly.Oakland Athletics fans don't deserve to be put through thisCincinnati Reds v Oakland AthleticsThere needs to be a penalty for teams to knowingly gut their organization into being this bad. The Oakland Athletics are nearly unwatchable, and the attendance numbers don't lie.The fan base had just lost their NFL team, now the Las Vegas Raiders. They also lost the Golden State Warriors after they moved to the Chase Center in San Francisco.Now, they're facing the same fate with their baseball team. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred stated that Oakland's move to Las Vegas could be voted on as early as June 13th-15th. This is when the owners will meet in New York.Nevada legislation and the Athletics recently reached a tentative agreement on the stadium funding plan. The stadium is expected to cost a whopping $1.5 billion, with a 30,000 seating capacity.The Athletics have played at The Coliseum since 1968. It would be a true shame to see the team just up and move. They would be leaving so much history behind.It will be interesting to see how this situation plays out. Are the Athletics' time in Oakland up, or will they remain in The Coliseum?
