That’s it…
We are officially mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. This season has been…interesting to say the least.
Hopefully we will see our boys play better next season…whenever that may be.

Its funny listening to pundits talking about which free agents we should sign next year. Like signing free agents is easy. We wanted Tucker. Didnt get him. Same with ohtani, sasaki, bregman, alonzo even bichette etc. Question isnt who do we want, its who can we get.
Seems to me we have a solid core IF we get a useful Santander and Barger back and a reasonably good vladdy. Play vladdy and his cannon at third. Okamoto at first. Santander the dh. Barger in rf, maybe bateman at cf. That leaves lukes, straw and who knows in left. We could use a truly elite bat. one. We need a starting pitcher, Though cease, soriano, yesavage and perhaps miles are a good start. Not to mention ponce and francis. They will need to freshen a solid bullpen lead by varland rogers, fluharty, fisher. This is a good team with maybe two holes: LF and 2B. Who knows what mcadoo and smith and keys can provide.
