Crazy that we still have a legit shot at the 3rd pick.

I'll bet we take another pitcher... because you need a whole bunch of them, since they're such risky assets
Phillies- 49-81 (.377)
Giants- 53-80 (.398)
White Sox- 52-77 (.403)
Reds- 55-76 (.420)
Padres- 57-74 (.435)
Mets- 57-73 (.438)
Tigers- 57-73 (.438)
Braves- 57-72 (.442)
Athletics- 58-73 (.443)
I still think we can chase down the Phillies.

Pretty sure Matt meant the well of defense based on how good the minor league system is. The FO can only say, "sure the team sucks and revenue is lower than expected, but look at the prospects!", for so long.
That time is obviously near, as evidenced by the recent executive shakeup.
Which leads us right back to the real point...
This was always intended to be a 3 year rebuild. Upper management would never have allowed a 5 year rebuild when opening a new stadium in year 3.
Promises of being competitive are not being kept, and we are starting to see the consequences.
Even while losing, cant gain any ground.
Mets, Tigers, Reds, A's keep losing. All teams are good at tanking.
Still standing around 7-8.
