Here's to hoping we go a decade and a half with top 10 picks then sign Ned Yost for the WS run
Hooray Consensus boards!

Is that the same model St. Louis is going to use? I thought their old plan was working? I know I was jealous.
Escobar and Cain looking very, very good. And young. And cheap....
You mean KC traded talent to get younger and parlayed that along with multiple years of high draft picks into building a winner?
Sounds like a good plan! Good to hear the Brewers management is in support of a similar plan.
ROYALS WIN!!!
NICE JOB MARK A LETTING A WORLD SERIES CHAMPION GO. DERP

Easy team to root for there. Shows what lots of high draft picks can do!
Congrats to KC, I never like them till the playoffs this yr. A never give up bunch for sure.

Was happy to see the Royals win. Really the only teams I didn't want winning the World Series this year would be Yankees and Cardinals.
The Brewers motto for the next couple years should be: "Embrace the suck!!". Under no circumstance should they spend money on anything that isn't going to pay dividends at least 2 or 3 years into the future.
It sounds like they've got the farm system on the right track, maybe 2 more really good drafts combined with shrewd future building trades and they can get back to where they were circa 2007 with all the young talent they had at that time (Fielder, Braun, Hardy, Hart, Weeks, Gallardo, etc.).
As others have said, talk is cheap. Drafting high is nice but they have to be smart, and maybe get a little bit lucky and find some new building blocks for the future.
