They can. They just can't make any mistakes. They need young players who get called up to immediately be stars so they can get 5 good years out of them. They have to be able to sign guys that outperform their contracts and be able to replace the good ones who leave to get the $15M/year+ they aren't ever going to be able to pay. Not impossible, but really difficult. They just have to beat 4 other teams to win the division. Then get a little lucky or have a few great pitchers.
