Well, that is how rebuilds are done. The hope is that Shef becomes a very good MLB Pitcher quickly and that at least a couple of the younger prospects reach their perceived potential. At this point, that is what you want if your Mets go into full rebuild, as you load the system for hopefully years of progressing players and also hoping that some of the youngest prospects progress to be big parts of deals 2-3 years down the road to get pieces for a playoff run.
You Mets have the pieces to start a very nice rebuild if they choose to go that way, but I do not know enough about your GM to know if you can trust him to find the right talent?
