When was the last time you saw "balanced analysis" about anything? The new guys will always be viewed skeptically until they achieve something. And we haven't yet.
I've about concluded that they young guys have played enough that they are no longer "kids". Pretty much second-year players.
What have they achieved? First place most of the season, in spite of a mountain of injuries. Harper should have been in AAA until July. He was the only hitter for a few weeks. Lombo learned LF when they put him out in "the pasture", Tyler Moor had a few games in the OF while at AAA, but not many. We though Bernadina was a "never get there". He has streaked. Storen has just returned. And they'ved played since the Cincy series without Ramos.
