GameThread, 5/10: Padres vs Rockies

Colorado Rockies at San Diego Padres, May 10, 2008 7:05 PM PDT


[Note by jbox, 05/10/08 6:48 PM PDT ]
Look at this line up. Gerut batting first, Giles in the three hole, Paul batting before Khalil.  This is so crazy, it might just work!

Go Padres!!!

I got an email from him letting us know about it

At least somebody that works for the Padres is willing to give Gaslamp Ball a little sliver of a scoop.

by Dex on May 10, 2008 9:12 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

he wouldn’t be risking his job to do so. he has more authority to break player moves than i do

something. anything.

We’d take it as a scoop if you knew what concession stands were going to be open from game to game.

On his email signature

what does he list as his title? Just asking since I get no Pad exec emails lately.

by planetjeffy on May 10, 2008 9:17 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

he actually doesn't list a title

Maybe he’s as confused about his actual job as everybody else in the baseball world and doesn’t want to advertise anything in writing as to what he might be expected to do.

What was that? A WIN?!!! 350/530. What a game. Alex’s little league treated us to a western metal suite tonight and it was awesome!! What a treat to witness history. We also realized that Alex has now been to 2 games and the Padres won both of them!! Which is kinda sad when you think that he’s seen more than 10% of their victories…
