The yanks and the rays seem to have the best pens every year and neither have won in a while.
I think as an org we probably do under emphasize the pen. But, I can respect the process. Also, there does seem to be more swing and miss in the farm, so as early as this year we might be able to solve some of our own problems in that area.
But, if we want to be like the rays or the Yankees, we need to go back in time and develop pitchers like them AND we need to be willing to put resources into it. The Yankees will spend in free agency. The rays will trade starting short stops for 2 relievers when they are contending.
