Svrluga had an excellent column on this. Talking about how Rizzo has charts for his 1 year plan, his 3 year, and his 5 year. He then compares the situation from 2012 through the last decade to now. In 2012, every regular, 4 out of the 5 starters, and the top 2 relievers were locked in for 2013, and only Michael Morse would be an FA before 2014. Talks about how lines up a replacement before a guy goes (Rendon for LaRoche with Zim to 1st, Turner for Desmond, Soto for Harper, Scherzer for JZ). Then compares to now. 8 of those same 14 spots are FAs at the end of the year, 2 more next. Stras is the only guy on the roster on the 5 year board
