Coming off a 98-loss season and without much optimism about the Marlins 2019 major league roster, it proved to be highly controversial. The conclusion was simply that new ownership has taken a smarter approach to talent acquisition and shown more conviction in their rebuild by taking the tough-but-necessary route: tearing down completely in order to draft and develop sustainable greatness.
