MAY DAY!!!

I love May. April is for fools, but May is for mothers. And who loves mothers the most? Fathers. And how do you say "Fathers" in Spanish? Padres.
Therefore, May is the month that the Padres love best.
There is a point to this point besides pointing out that it is now May and the Padres will be playing baseball now (as evidenced by last night's game). The point is that the Baseball Gods help those who help themselves and looking at MLB Trade Rumors today, I realize that we really should start looking for a young centerfielder.
One funny extra bit of info is that Theo Epstein asked for Chase Headley in exchange for Coco Crisp. That's like asking somebody who's still eating dinner if you can have their dessert since they aren't using it. You got to wake up pretty early in the morning.
In any case, I say we make a move for Jayson Werth. Once Victorino gets back, the Phillies won't be needing him. Werth liked it in LA, right? He was treated well in San Diego, right?

Unless you’ve been watching him play lately.

Maybe they meant it literally...

Especially when he’s using his cane.

Who can blame Theo...
He just wanted to make sure that he didn’t get violated by KT again…

Werth
i’ve always thought he was a good player. maybe an asshole, but a good player. comes through in the clutch a lot too.
i’ve watched him in center for the phillies this year and he’s been fantastic. i think his main problem is that he’s gotten injured quite a bit throughout his career. other than that he’s an above-average player at an average player’s salary.
unfortunately the phillies are rather attached to him. they don’t completely trust geoff jenkins in right (his age and big swing make them think his bat will go south very quickly) or burrell in left (hell of a hitter, but they replace him defensively towards the end of almost every game because his shoes are filled with cement, plus he’ll want a bunch of money in a new contract next year). i wouldn’t bank on them giving him up for anything short of a young, number 2 or 3-type starter. and as much as i believe it, i don’t know if they see that kindof potential in hensley anymore.

I wonder if it’s often difficult to convey over the internet…
