My fear is that this rebuild will end like the numerous failed Bulls rebuilds, there are just too many similarities. Coming into this off-season we were the team everyone said was making all the calls, doing all the work, and would make some big noise. All we've done is sign a good catcher that the league undervalues because of age and fear of regression, trade for a bum hoping we will greatly improve, and engage in trade talks for players other teams want to get rid of. We should have signed at least one of the big names and tried to bring in more young and useful talent since we have the resources. The sad thing is, our FO actually thinks they are competent and shrewd/savvy folks. .
