I like Hernandez. I really do. I am fine with him getting some starts and trust him completely when he's in there.

But this is why I really would like to see Hanigan as the primary catcher (nearing 60 plate appearances now)...

.396 BA
2 HR & 16 RBI
.508 OBP
.625 SLG (.229 ISO)
10 BB & 5 K

Oh, and he's thrown out 46% of the baserunners that have attempted to steal on him.

I don't think I'm being irrational hoping he becomes the starter - even if he gives up some starts once or twice a week to Ramon.
