GameThread, 4/12: Padres vs Dodgers

Crackerjackdex2_tiny by Dex on

San Diego Padres @ Los Angeles Dodgers


Christopher Ryan Young goes for us today. I've been browsing the new Baseball Reference splits lately and CY's franchise splits for the Dodgers are interesting. Did you know that CY's given up more walks to the Dodgers than to any other franchise? CY's also allowed more stolen bases to the Dodgers. There's all kinds of ways to explain it away, but it's one of those sorts of facts you can tell your friends and they'll be like, that's a f_ckin' awesome bit of trivia.

Derek Christopher Lowe goes for the Dodgers and the most interesting bit of trivia that I could find for him is the fact that the Padres have an On Base Percentage of .309 against him and an even lower slugging percentage of .298. That's ummmm.... that's kinda discouraging considering our recent streak of not being able to hit extra base hits.

I started this GameThread with such high hopes. Now, I'm just anxious not to get smoked too bad.

GO PADRES!!! TRY YOUR BEST!!!

"Did you know that CY's given up more walks to the Dodgers than to any other franchise?"

This doesn't surprise me. Didn't he give up like eight on the Jackie Robinson Night on ESPN last season?

Nothing against Vin Scully,

but he seems to have missed the memo about how Tadahito doesn't like being called Tad.

TERRIBLE throw

what did thing bounce like 3 times to the cutoff man?

by Dex on Apr 12, 2008 7:14 PM PDT   0 recs

Jones is an idiot

Furcal has the moment, the better angle, and apparently better aim. Not that I'll complain.

As Matt would say,

Buddy's giving Brian a blow.

Actually, they said he'd probably rest the whole weekend, though they didn't elaborate on why.

That would have to be a good blow,

to put him to sleep for an entire weekend.
