Who had the worst record in MLB history, and what was it?

Question:

Answers:

Quick question regarding lineup protection?

In modern times, we have these:
Most losses, the '62 Mets with 120.

Worst winning percentage, the 1935 Braves at .248 (38-115).

But reaching way back, we find the 1899 Cleveland Spiders of the National League, a casebook unto themselves, with a jaw-dropping record of 20-134, a .130 "winning" percentage.

Depending on how finely you want to slice "MLB" in your question, one of these is likely the answer you desire.
