Agree
Perhaps teams are looking at this season as just as a good warm up for next season ? An early spring training before spring training next year ? Not really taking it seriously ? I dunno ?
But if they are "in it to win it" he better start treating every remaining game as the 9th game of the world series. They're 6 games down in the loss column 1/4 of the way thru.
This upcoming home stand against Royals and Pirates (6 games) they need to win 5 of em in a bad way.
