How long will it take...

2018 would be my guess.  Just too many good teams in the Central for them to compete with a weaker roster.

With a year or two of starts for the young arms to take their lumps, they might be able to have a pretty good finished product with the rotation by then.  They need time to decide who starts and who goes to the pen, and then let the young arms get some experience in the bigs.  

With any luck, this stinker of a season will provide them with some draft picks that can be MLB ready in a couple of years.  They still need some offensive guys in the system to step in for guys they are declining and or leaving in the next few years.
