Here come the Johan bashers

It's the second inning, and the Phillies are already leading 3-1. Johan Santana has give up a two-run home run to Ryan Howard in the first and a solo shot to Jayson Werth in the second.

It's awful that Johan is having a bad start tonight, but he's pitched so well over the last month or more. He's due for a mediocre, or even bad, start. It's going to happen.

It's just too bad if this holds up, or gets worse, fans will be all over Johan for "not coming through when the team needs him." Not like he's put up some pretty baffling starts and not gotten wins from them in the past.

Hopefully it will be a reversal of fortunes tonight, but only time will tell.
