It is wholly unfair to expect a 23-year-old still earning his big-league bona fides to carry the swagger of a rotation stalwart, where losing streaks, hitting slumps and crises of confidence die every fifth day. “I’m not going to put ‘stopper’ along with Jose’s name at this juncture,” manager Paul Molitor said after a meek 7-2 defeat, his team’s third straight.
