Padres catcher Michael Barrett suffered a strained throwing elbow today that, according to manager Bud Black, will put him on the 15-day disabled list and bring catcher Colt Morton to the Padres tomorrow from Double-A San Antonio.

I did a little bit of research*
when Chris Young (6'10") pitches to Colt Morton (6'5") it will be the tallest pitcher-catcher combo in Major League History.
*no research was actually done.

Tallest Catcher
6'5 I believe is the record for tallest catcher. So I wouldn't be surprised if jbox's "research" was correct. http://members.tripod.com/bb_catchers/catchers/mclean.htm
And, I'm still waiting for Meredith or Bell to come in the seventh inning of April 4's game with the bases loaded, the scored tied and Thatcher struggling.

Can't believe Colt
is only 6'5". Saw him in spring training and he looked even taller. I want him to have #45 when they pull him up. Maybe they can have Billy Dee introduce him when he comes up to bat.

Oh Lando
Seriously, Billy Dee Williams will forever be the man that helped liberate Han Solo and Chewie from Jabba's Palace.
