I know it doesn't help right now, but what the team did this year was at least a year, maybe 2, ahead of "schedule" as most had laid out. There's no guarantee for the future, but the young nucleus this team is built around is super exciting. We'll likely need an upgrade at 3b, but I'd feel pretty decent going into next year with what we have otherwise. Starting pitching is a big question mark, but we should have all kinds of options, and that's without factoring in any potential pickups.
Do you agree? We're a year or two ahead of schedule? I refuse to believe this franchise is cursed or incapable of winning in the post season like I've heard from so many of my friends who are fans. So much to look forward to.
