    It all depends on how the youth pans out and how they decide to spend their money. Many teams will tear it down and start new but that doesn't mean it's a guaranteed road back to winning.

    Per ESPN Sports news looks like Moustakas went back to the Royals at a lower price than his 1 year Qualifying Offer, also Cargo goes back to the Rockies.

    Back to back losses with an almost "A" roster. Pitching looked a bit shaky both games.

    any Team who creates a Franchise from the beginning, known as the Boston Red Stockings; will forever be damned; even after a name change; and 3 Cities later.
