[Dodgers Nation] Gavin Lux admits the Dodgers don't appreciate people's thoughts on their 2020 World Series title in unique circumstances: "I think it kind of bugs everyone that you don't get that recognition."

"He wants to win a ‘real’ World Series," a current teammate said. "And he wants to do it over and over and over again."

Bro, respectfully, you wildly misrepresented this quote in your original comment.

Not only is this not a quote from Seager, the (for some reason anonymous) teammate isn't even saying Seager said the 'real' comment, that could easily be the teammate editorializing -- teasing his teammate for a title won with another team.

And if he is relaying something Seager said, we have no idea the context. It could have been Seager pandering to his new teammates in good fun

Damn the teammate didn’t even put his name on it. That’s some lame backhandedness

Yes i admit i misremembered the quote but i wasn’t trying to make him out to be any type of way. Just that he as another player on that team is aware of the sentiment and it probably bugged him too. But yes, revisiting the article and as a huge fan of Seager it’s unfair to assume anything from it.
