Reader Q&A: Paul Sullivan's Cubs mailbag

I understand that the Cubs want to build the team the "right way" by building the farm system. What I do not understand is why they can't both build the farm system and try to build a winner right now. I think it is wrong to ask the fans who have waited forever to wait an unspecified amount of time longer to maybe have a winner in the future. -- John Vece, Waukegan
