    4-0 already. This is why this team will not make a run to the playoffs. The offense is much improved but the pitching just isn't consistent enough.

    I don't doubt they can come back from four runs down but how many times can we expect them to do it? They can't continue to have their starters put them into these holes at the beginning of games.

    ...I always expect them to come back...just how I roll.

    ...but with Hughes pitching later, I'm not real confident...course, the way Baseball goes sometimes, with Nova starting off poorly, Hughes will pitch lights out.

    Of course not, forgive me but every time I see Stewart behind the plate or at bat, I just feel that there is a better solution that the organization refuses to seek. "But we are committed to excellence". Warning, if he starts Stewart in the second game just send the straight jacket to me... I know that's not going to happen, right?

    I believe in it. It has worked for me in more sports than just baseball.

    ...c'mon, it's already been covered...Stewart in one of the best defensive catchers in the league.

    ...but yeah, I'd be VERY surprised to see Stewart catch game #2.

    The sun shines on every dogs butt some day so Mr Stewart enjoy that sunshine. I guess the law of averages and intangibles came your way and thank you!

    Stewart is the best. I really have always loved him deep down inside. Like last May 15th when he hit his last HR.
