Open Thread: 4/30, San Diego vs. Philidelphia

San Diego Padres at Philadelphia Phillies, Apr 30, 2008 4:05 PM PDT


Fortunately this is our last day of sucking until June 1st.  It's going to be nice to go undefeated in May.  Today is totally different.  Today we have no chance of winning.  Hoping for the Padres' bats to connect with Phillies' balls is like hoping for LC and Stephen to get together, it's pointless it's never going to happen!  We just have to move on, no matter how much they tease us.  Look at the bright side tomorrow is May 1st and all our troubles are over.

Go Padres!

There was a player's only meeting before the game...

My question is…did they let Iguchi’s translator in? He isn’t a player….

Bring the Heat

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you

Come on offense!

I figured out the Hoffman problem. We keep him as closer, except we also take a 4 run lead into the ninth so we don’t need him.

Closers

They should be able to put themselves into save situations, like coming in with a 5-run lead, giving up 2 runs, then close it out and collect the save.
