[QUOTE="LongLiveTheChief, post: 1651537, member: 748361"] Lol no. No rebuild takes 100 years. What we saw for 100 years was failed attempts to build. At any point, a good strategy would allow any team to go from any point to contending in 5-10 years. The Cubs farm system and player development is not nearly that bad. I wouldn’t say it was so much that they didn’t have a PLAN for post-2016, rather, they didn’t have enough time to build up the farm for sustained success before needing to promote and trade away players all at once. They really had barely enough prospects to get through the Chapman trade. [/QUOTE]
