I wish so badly that they'd gone scorched Earth either at the end of 2017 or 2018. Trade everybody who had trade value. If a player had a no-trade clause, sit them down (with their agent too i suppose) and talk them into waiving it for the good of the team. Get some prospects for those players we trade, have a few awful seasons but get some decent draft picks out of that, and lastly invest a decent amount of money in the farm and in scouting, drafting, and developing overall. The Cubs, the Astros, the Phillies....all went through a rebuild process of some sort.

IMO, we absolutely should've when we had the chance. But no, per Baer (or was it Sabean?), we're not gonna rebuild but "reload" instead, and rebuilding "just isn't in our DNA."

Beam me up, Buster.
