For a team to be set up for success, it must have a strong farm system behind it. We saw what happened in 2016. Theo Epstein got the Chicago Cubs their first ring in 108 years. That’s certainly day in my life that I will never forget. Justifiably, it left us with little to no prospect depth moving forward. Post-World Series, we lost key prospects such as Gleyber Torres, Eloy Jimenez and Dylan Cease – all of whom have had success at the big league level who could be helping out immensely right now.
