The realistic side of me would have to say at least 2017. And even that's probably being optimistic. But just how much is the operative conundrum. They obviously have at least a few promising prospects that appear to be close to contributing at the only level that matters. And maybe they'll have even more, if the impending trade of Cole Hamels works out the way they need it to. But let's assume that Franco is the real thing. And that doesn't mean the next Mike Schmidt. And let's assume that we can soon say the same about some of their young arms. And maybe in two years or less they'll have a shortstop and centerfielder who are ready to be factors. That still means they need to find a bunch of pieces, and have more moves go right, to push the timetable too much ahead of schedule.
