    They sucked for 6 weeks. But let's look at that and ignore the previous 3 and a half seasons

    we've got a few good players, but no where's near enough to contend. You have to be a real optimist to think this team is close.

    A few good players??

    1. Julio Teheran
    2. Freddie Freeman
    3. Alex Wood
    4. Craig Kimbrel
    5. Andrelton Simmons
    6. Shelby Miller
    7. Mike Minor

    Those seven players above all have the chance to be All-Stars by 2017 and I would even say that all seven could be as soon as next year. This is not to mention the prospects we've acquired in trades. Please tell me another club that has SEVEN proven Major Leaguers under the age of 26...
