Is the Iannetta era coming to an end?


Here's an interesting question...i'm not discounting Iannetta's power...we all know he can hit HR's...but with Olivo swinging a hot bat right now and Iannetta off to another slow start at the plate is it time that the Rockies start looking elsewhere for a reliable catching option? We have been more then patient with Chris. In 2007 Yorvit was our catcher down the stretch. In 2008 we gave him a chance to take over the everyday catching duties and he was again overtaken by Yorvit...and again in 2009...and this year Tracy was smart and said that it's going to be a 50/50 thing. But Miguel has been very impressive this year not only with his bat but throwing out runners on the bases as well. Like i said...i'm not discounting Chris's ability to hit the long ball. I just think we have been patient enough for this guy to come around.
