"Chris Iannetta will wake up today as the Rockies' starting catcher — again. Whether he eventually loses the job — again — remains a concern.

Last season, Iannetta earned the starting job before being surpassed by Miguel Olivo. Two years ago it was Yorvit Torrealba who took over.

This spring, Iannetta was the clear choice to start at backstop, with veteran Jose Morales his backup. Other options this spring were Matt Pagnozzi, who was dropped to Triple-A, and Mike McKenry, who was traded to Boston last week.

"I struggled a little toward the end of 2009 and tried to change a bunch of things. And when I struggled some last season, I tried to change a bunch again," Iannetta said Thursday.

This season, Iannetta said his approach will be different — but the same, as it was early in his career."
