I mean, the very top end were here but the main reason for being where we are is because of the depth of it. Most of that has been brought in via Elias, including some of the IFAs that are getting ready/already sprinkled in to that top 30.
Our farm system hasn't been this filled with solid 40-45 guys in a long, long time.
Not to mention it could be argued Elias got more for relievers/meh pieces this deadline than Duquette got for School, Machado, etc. Which is pure insanity.
This is clearly a much better run team that has a deep farm system due to the guy currently here which speaks volumes considering how short his tenure has been already. We'll see if these guys work out/it continues, but we wouldn't be close to top 10 with the past regime these past couple years as far as farm ranking. Fairly confident in that
