I am not one to say that Cash hasnt made mistakes, he has made some doozies, but the biggest indicator of his success will be the farm system. And the fact that we started the yr with 2 very young home grown pitchers in our rotation and one very young, home grown reliable setup man shows what he is capable of. Unfortunately, not all of them work out. And to write off guys like Hughes and Kennedy at this point is just plain assinine. He can think what he wants, but this organization is far and away better than it was in 2005, when Cash wrested control away from Big Stein. And it will only get better. Every now and then, you need to take a step back to take a step forward, and I am okay with that. But I have a feeling that by the end of the season, we'll still be in the playoffs and will still have a shot at the title.

Even with two months of Rasner and Igawa?
Good luck...
