I think it's time to forget the big names. Start over from the ground up. Rebuild the farm system and hope for the best in 2 to 3 years. Face it....this year is a bust...probably next. Might as well unload and restock.

I agree 100%. What is worrisome, however, is that the indications are that McLane WON'T accept this reality, and will insist on making moves that appear to be aimed at winning NOW, but in actuality do not address the long term definciencies of the organization. It is pretty clear that Drayton views the idea of rebuilding to be an unacceptable admission of defeat.

I think he's afraid of the drop-off in attendance(losing money).


This team is 40-34 with up and coming players....look at their payroll...........
