I would argue that when you're trading 2nd round picks for guys like Baertschi and Vey to plug holes in the lineup, that it's time to re-build. Bad trades by a bad GM, period.
Baertschi looked bad out there, but Vey was even worse when he was in the lineup for them. They basically traded two 2nds for Dustin Boyd and Nigel Dawes because there were no better options internally. Think about that for a second.
