Buy up points for Mosaic?
I'm going to be about 200 base points short of hitting Mosaic without purchasing another flight.
Any word of something like this for this year: Top off Mosaic buying points [2018 year end]
I'd happily pay $45 to not bother with an extra flight to get it.

Looks like they still have it this year and the link is the same. We'll probably get an official email within a week or so:

For folks who have used this sort of buy up at the end of the year to get status for the following year, how much have you been willing to pay? I know it's a YMMV type of thing, but I'm curious what people are willing to pay. I've only done it once myself b/c I was less than $100 worth of points away and I knew I'd be flying the particular airline a bunch the next year. This year with B6 I'd have to shell out around $450 to reach Mosaic and that just seems too steep for what Mosaic gives you. Of course, if I don't do it then I'll probably have to cancel or change several flights next year.
Have a great weekend.

Yeah, I'm just too far away, especially considering how B6 sort of stuck it to Mosaics with the latest fare rearrangement.

Worth noting that if you buy up to Mosaic, you will get the 15000 point bonus for earning the status (or at least, I did when I bought up last year -- managed to barely hit 15k on my last flight this year). That is conservatively worth $150 by itself.
