I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

This has felt like the longest season. I just want the suffering to end.
Wonder if they change things up and look at deals for Woody and Burns this off-season. Might need the shakeup.

Can't have a lame duck POBO so get something from the Mets for letting Stearns leave a year early.

Re: Brewers/Marlins Series
I had already pretty much given up on the season, so I'm not as frustrated as some fans might be. I've been in big picture mode the last few weeks. They've maintainted an 89-90 win pace for 6 years as a small market that was expected to spend half those years tanking and rebuilding after the Fielder/Hart/Weeks/Braun era, and that's including the 60-game 2020 joke of a season. That's pretty good considering the economics of MLB, and they've had to go through some incredibly creative contortions to get there. You can validly criticize some decisions, but they're still hitting for an incredibly high average relative to most organizations, with a smaller margin of error, and the results bear that out.
That said, I'm all for a reset at this point. Doesn't feel like they have the personnel to do anything but decline a little more each of the next few years anyway. Let Stearns go to the Mets for some compensation and trade Woodruff and Burnes before one of them has a really down year next year, a scenario they both flirted with a little too much for comfort at times this year.

I feel like this bullpen is even worse than the imagined worst case scenario. Be comfortably in the playoffs with some mild competence.

Yes, I'm not that frustrated either. The team lost something intangible at the deadline. Need some changes, but maybe need to be in the clubhouse to know what those changes should be.

Re: Brewers/Marlins Series
This season went wrong long before the deadline, when we were 11 over compared to today's 10 over. It hasn't been explicitly said otherwise, but I think it's worth being crystal clear so that there isn't some BS 'trading Hader messed things up' narrative. I'm not here for Cain's weird on-my-way-out narrative.

It feels like this bullpen, on paper, should be better. But in reality, I don't think you can trust any of them, even Williams. Feels like it's a different bullpen member screwing up every game, but you never know who it's going to be. Add in Rosenthal not throwing a single pitch since a top 20 prospect was traded for him, and this bullpen has been a disaster since the deadline.
