I just think it's asking too much for Hinch, and Harris, to find eight major league regulars, four regular rotation guys, and a regular back of the bullpen, out of this motley system. Harris inherited a mess, and part of that mess is being left with a severe lack of leverage to swing deals and sign impact players. We are at least a couple of years from being able to do that. In the meantime, we have to play the players we got, and try to find diamonds in a market that's rough on people who are low on options.
Even if some people were to get what they wish for and see Harris kick Hinch's ass to the curb this winter, there's at least a 50/50 chance they wouldn't like his replacement, either, and then we'd have this conversation all over again next year.
