I shouldn't be, but part of me is surprised he'd taking it right down to the deadline. I thought for sure he'd want this done before New Year's. Still a little time, but not much.
I'm not sure this should even be a joke. A team that knows Willis inside and out is getting destroyed by him. Willis is more or less single handedly carrying GB.
The bullpen looks kind of great right now. They still badly need a guy to slot into the top half of the rotation and honestly a bat would be great too, but things are coming along.
I think that calling it world series or bust is absurd for anyone short of the Dodgers. They were one game from the NLCS. Was it the ultimate goal? Nope. However, 90+% of us would have been thrilled with that before the season.
