The most depressing part is that generally other horrible teams that are bad have highly valuable trade assets to use in acquiring more talent. The White Sox have one of best farm systems from trading off Sale, Quintana, Eaton, etc. Detroit HAD a system as bad as ours, but then they made trades.

We appeared to have some assets, but that apparently isn't the case. Herrera fetched absolutely nothing, Moustakas will hardly fetch anything, Salvy is having an awful season...

Merrifield is likely our best shot, but I'm not so sure he brings as much as we'd like without having that much power.

We're left with relying almost 100% on the draft, and with our draft history that's scary. This draft seems to be decent for pitching, but I'm skeptical whether we can continue to hit on picks year after year to successfully rebuild.
