The double edged sword with a team like the Mets, is that there are the extra resources but they come with extra expectations. With the Brewers there was the ability to build up a farm and be patient with it, but I'm sure the Mets owners and fans, for the most part, just look at the farm as currency to help buy towards the now.
I feel like we have found a niche in the current system and a way to maximize it to our potential. I am worried the seemingly inevitable changes on the horizon will break that niche one way or another. But the one thing that gives me hope is that we've already invested a ton into the farm up approach that we should be able to weather the changes and make the needed adjustments.
