Look at the Rangers:
They get to the Series in 2010 and 2011. They have Hamilton, Napoli, Beltre, Kinsler, Andrus, and Nelson Cruz. On top of that, they had the #1 prospect in baseball (Profar) and a CIF who was killing the ball and cruising through their system.
They didn't win either won and haven't won a PO game since.
They were the worst team in baseball this year. Now, Olt is a Cub who looks like Rob Deer and Profar had one of the worst rookie seasons imaginable before blowing his shoulder out this year.
