Wouldn't it makes sense to combine the 2 DSL teams we have into 1 that may actually be somewhat good and have a few players that have a chance of playing in the Cubs minor league system?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Maybe they are going with the law of large numbers. The more kids you look at the better chance you find the diamond in the rough. Besides, these kids are very young, like 16 years old. Many may make huge improvements as their bodies mature.

I was just running off the fact that DSL Cubs 2 is 15-51 and hasn't won in like 3 weeks. My guess is the talent on that team is pretty low. Cubs 1 is 2 games over 500, so they're average. Combine the 2, get rid of a bunch of junk players and you get yourself the better players to look at and a much better team.

I realize the minors don't really care about team results and are much more interested in individual talent, but I don't know anyone who likes to lose and it appears the entire 2nd team is horrible.
