Divish blogged this morning that McClendon said Friday was a day off for Hart; when asked about his absence in the lineups today said today was a day off as well. If Hart needs two days off after DH'ing in a minor league game (albeit with 9 AB's) he's nowhere near ready to be on the active roster Opening Day. Hitting is timing, and after a year off Hart's just isn't there. Whether it's knee pain or just rust doesn't matter at this point. He's not ready.
