Every team goes through stretches like this...even the vaunted Astros recently had a real poor stretch. The Nats had a similar bad run a couple of weeks back....The Dodgers and D-Backs inevitably will as well...The key is to break out of it and rebound and not let it snowball into a month long slump like in years past.

The problem with this team is the losing culture that has existed for so long as doubts will creep in. Hopefully a guy like Black has the tools to keep that at bay unlike his predecessor.
