This is a fair point. However there is not all that much that can be done right now in season. Sure we could trade prospects to get better but it wouldn't make much of a difference

Not talking about in season currently. I don't like the idea of trading prospects in the offseason when you can buy F/A. However, I do like the idea of trading prospects if you feel a need to get a piece or two mid season if you are in a position of playoff contention.

Let's hope this team can at least be as good as the Montreal Expos were, at their inception as an expansion team, next season.

Castro was signed at 16 and debuted at 20.

Jos, are you sure he signed at 15? Don't players have to be 16 to be eligible?

Yes, there was a huge story about it in 2000 when some of the documentation was leaked. He forged the information on his documents so he would've been eligible for the Dodgers to sign him during that period. When Selig found out, he came down hard on the Dodgers' scouting team and suspended them.
