Make sense.  We couldn’t sign high end players, and the promising outfielders from last year’s team are all stateside.

I'll take the team sucking but looking like (so far in the very early going) we might have a diamond in the rough batting 3rd and doing very well as a 17 year old (Rodriguez) than the team being good and noone of any significance looking the part anyday.

This is nitpicky but it's less that we were restricted in signing good players and more that our limbo with Robert prevented us from establishing contracts at all. On J2 signing day, we signed 2 players total. I forgot which team (probably padres), but a team over the limit still signed dozens of players under 300k. Our uncertainty with Robert prevented them from being able to negotiate and basically resulted in a lost year. Most of those guys were signed in february/march.

Seems like the DSL team kind of sucks

The results in the DSL mean almost nothing. Don’t look too far into it, if they still suck after a couple years in the states then start worrying. Some of the DSL players are 16 playing against 21/22 year olds who are just org filler. Their stats mean very little, they’re just getting reps and physically maturing down there until they’re ready to come stateside. The only exception is when someone is very young and still crushes it

Agreed, we always used to have an old team down there. This is a very young team now. They released a lot of the older guys.

And we move anyone who is worth anything to the US quicker than most other franchises.

Thanks for shedding some light on this.
