Couldn't agree more. Great post. The Cubs need to develop a great base that will contend for years. Follow the model of the early 90's Yankees (it pains me to say that), and the Braves. Get some home grown talent up to the bigs and let them develop into starters (talking position players here). People often lament rebuilding as the worst thing for the fans, but that's not true. When its done right, teams turn it around real quick. Look no further than the A's. Good idea. I hope that the Cubs do it.

Baker, Hendry, Hairston, Patterson...

Great post. I hadn't thought of it that way. I think that you may be right on this. Maybe part of the reason that Baker does not play young guys is thathe does not know how to manage them. He simply does not know how to develop players. Give him a team of vets and he does alright. Give him some youth and he ruins them. Baker must go.
