The Sox need help in the rotation. The bullpen has been fine. If the only thing their org can do is pump out bullpen arms, I'm not sure it's good enough.
If it is, I guess the Sox are just doomed to suck for the next 5-6 years since their pitching pipeline is dreadful and they have no other way to acquire starters since they are unwilling to leverage their top prospects in trades. Yay.
The "convergence" of the young positional players (aggressive player dev) taking a step forward and a build out of a talent pipeline of arms (acquired, drafted, developed internally) is the quickest path forward for a World Series? Really? TEX won one in 2 feakin' years? (moon phrase initially trademarked the day Sale was traded for)
Does it also seem like at the beginning of the quote that Crag expected them to be a little more all in than they currently are. "As I've gotten to know this organization better..."
