What is the record for the pitcher who was the most games under .500 for his career?

Clicking through suspects on the all-time career losses list, I found Si Johnson went 101-165 over his career, 64 games under .500 (hoping no one dredges up the argument about whether that's really 32 games under .500...)
Ol' Si played from 1928-1947, mostly with the Reds and Phillies who were both notoriously bad clubs when he was with them.

How about Milt Gaston who was 97-164 for a winning percentage of .372. That's 67 games under .500.
Milt pitched from 1924 - 1934 for the Yankees (1924), Browns (1925-7), Senators (1928), Red Sox (1929-31), and White Sox (1932-4). He might be a pitcher who could get nominated for "pitcher with the worst run support". His SNWL record is 128-133.
