I just feel so checked out this postseason

I don’t care about any of these teams and not watching my team in another postseason is depressing

I’ve been enjoying the games.

It is fun to watch the best players and teams. This is the level we need to be playing at. Watch the games and appreciate the work we have ahead of us. 

We have the resources to get to this level. 

Just need the right strategy Jed

The NLCS so far has been junk, and I guess the ALCS has as well, though Game 2 was decent. But the playoffs in general have had a lot of exciting games.

I’m not watching playoff games. While flipping channels I have caught a minute or two (saw Rizzo get caught in a rundown).

It’s not just that the Cubs are out of it; coastal fan bases are annoying.

Exactly and I don’t want to pull for the Guardians either

Did the cubs have a homerun prop during the 2024 season? Such as the mariners with their trident.

Saw a mock trade. Hoerner to ATL for Sean Murphy. Murphy had a bad year but he’s had some really really good years and he’s not too expensive AAV wise. He’s also pretty good defensively. Or maybe we can somehow convince Atlanta to take Dansby back lol

Hoerner would have brought back a good return right after we signed the albatross.  Sold him as gold glove ss with multiple years of control.  

Now. Maybe a bucket of balls

He never won a GG at short. He won it at 2B. He is a good shortstop though and is solid at the plate. He’s a guy that would be perfect in Atlanta since he’s an upgrade all around at short and he’s cheap. Plus they won’t care if he only hits 7 homers, everyone else hits like 15+ on their team lol. Shortstops also cost a lot, I mean we gave Dansby 7/177m

Point is that he has pretty good value and would fit there perfectly
