“Preller may “lose” more transactions than wins…”
impossible.
“…and the development of minor league elements.”
It can be said that which champion is the worst in baseball game.
“For the total number of prospects acquired/development in the last 5-7 years, the former champion should be given a victory.”
Responsibility should also be given to him as they fail to successfully bring these prospects to the Grand Slam, which is key to the whole equation in terms of prospect development, isn’t it?
“He continues to sell the farm year after year? The reservoir water is used flush.”
Basically, a strange way to say what I literally said I can’t see. The pipes are dry now, if not, the question you should ask is not “Can they afford it?” but “Will it benefit them?” Elon Musk has the ability to give me $100 million. But what reason does he have to do?
“It started to look like they could maintain this strategy.”
They can’t. The team will suck after 2024.
So basically, you’re defending Preller’s strategy of building an elite farm system just to bring the whole process into a window of 2 or 3 years. We have determined that this is not how successful organizations work. Check out the last 6 WS winners to prove it.
