The Problem: Opponents Too Good

          We Loria loyalists know that the problem isn't Jennings (8-14), a vast improvement over Redmond (16-22).
           The problem, dear Brutus, is in our star opponents. 
            Radio guys on Wednesday afternoon, as Marlins were getting swept by Blue Jays, said, "We just keep running into hot opponents." 
            They were warning us that we have the Yankees coming up, who are in the middle of their own hot streak. 
            So ... it's the MLB's fault. If they just gave us an easier schedule -- say the Phillies and Brewers all the time -- well, then we'd be set.
