Over time, the more you spend and the better coaches you have, the more likely the better players will emerge and be promoted through the minors and eventually make the majors. This is not a one-year process, it is a 3-5 year journey for a few players, with most failing and topping off to be minor league roster fillers for the best of the rest. The worst should be cut each year to make room for a new year of draftees, international complex promotions and maybe a few free agent signees you think may have a chance or fill a need for your organization.
