it actually makes sense. Rogers pressuring AA to field a winning team and to bring in players that can win. When AA took over he talked about building the team from the farm and was doing everything right(with a vouple of hiccups) but the farm sytem was blooming some of the players were extremely close to coming up. He talked about not contending until we had a set core and would build from within. All of a sudden AA took a complete 180 after another losing season and sold everything off and became the oldest team in baseball from the youngest in one offseason. You don't do that unless you recieve pressure from about or you hit your head.
