There really isn't much a question that the Braves have one of the best scouting systems over the past 15 years. Cleveland, Oakland and Minnesota have done well, but not to the Braves level of consistency (both in terms of graduating players to the majors and having trade chips).

The Yankees, as much as it pains me to admit it, clearly "have [ ] a grasp of what makes a dynasty long term since Steinbrenner has had them," as they've won or tied for first in their division every year but two since the current AL East was created. Projections of how the Yankees will continue in the future are merely projections, while their past success is a very good indication that they know what they are doing wrt winning.
