Other GM's aren't dimwits, they know and understand that our window is closing rapidly and will extort us as such. It all comes down to this, do you want to give up some prospects and dance with this current crop? Or do you want to nurture our farm and hope they bring us success when two decades of failure dictate otherwise. People are always so positively infatuated with some kids coming up, like they will be Moses leading us through the red sea to salvation, and not just another bunch that will have us playing meaningless baseball for another 20 years in each September tilt. I'm so sick and tired of this pathetic franchise - but go on, and tell me how these kids coming up will change our fortunes. I'm sorry for my negativity, I attend games throughout the summer, watch most games on the tube, and when I hear people talk about not wanting to mortgage the future for the present, I throw my hands in my face and say, what past accomplishments lead you to believe this franchise will build a winner going forward with the farm when they didn't bust out the wallet when everybody and their mother knew our starting rotation was a pathetic mess this past summer? I know I'm not bringing any revolutionary thoughts to table, I guess I just need a place to vent my frustration is all.
