True. It's still better than the current rotation, though. Currently, but it has 2 rookies, one of whom has yet to throw a big league pitch, 1 guy who's a full time starter for the first time and 2 young pitchers still trying to establish themselves. If this were to be the Cubs rotation for the next 5 years, and I pray to every deity imagineable that it isn't, there's a chance that it could be better. Are you seriously splitting hairs over some random make believe scenario you thought up?
