Well, what makes it worse is the expectation that the team should be starting to get better. They arent. We have young(er) players in every position except RF at the moment and what we are seeing is that we don't really have much of a team. There are no rookies (except 2 bench players), but the young players are as a group regressing (except Alterr). The players are young, but most are coming to an age where they should be entering their prime.
Even the optimistic parts of this board speak more like the future is currently in the minors, not amongst the younger players in the majors so it almost seems like the rebuild is still in its early stages.
