So I said *if*, twice, and that's still not good enough? Do you have inside medical information or sources that go beyond what the rest of us know? What is Stearns' reason for lying to us when he said he still expects Nelson to return this year? He could return, but to pin any hopes, and I mean ANY hopes on him contributing in a positive manner is foolish. It would be a miracle if he adds anything to this team this season. Next year, yeah, I'm on board with that, but I just don't see it happening this year.
