Why do you think the Cubs, Mets, and Royals are successful now.

stock piled pitching prospects for their own good
Yes John Lester, Jake Arrieta, Kyle Hendricks, and Jason Hammel were drafted....

Same with Volquez, Vargas, Medlen, C. Young, Guthrie, and Cuerto...

well if you build a solid foundation you can afford to spend in free agency on an ace

Right and how do you think they acquired these guys. Besides free agency some of them were traded for. You can't trade for big time players without having the prospects. Everybody wants pitchers first. Now the Braves have them and they have talented ones. The Braves have 18 young arms in their farm system now with above average talent and 10 of them that will be in the majors eventually.
