That's 14 guys who are either rookies, minor leaguers, or have very recently been minor leaguers (not counting the lockout), 2 guys who were flipped by their teams for depth picks (ie throwaways), and 4 established vets.
That would be horrific.

Ya, with that kind of roster, we'd look like a rebuilding team who was close to the bottom of the league in position to get a lottery pick and have a bunch of prospects. Instead we should shoot for 9th place and maybe pick up more vets
