Open Thread: 5/12, Padres vs. Cubs
San Diego @ Chicago
Padres have a two game winning streak and have won their first series since the beginning of April.
Remember when Garvey hit that home run in 1984 ? That was great.
Go Padres!

I could watch that Garvey video 20 times a day
and not get sick of it.

I'll say it again
This is by far our best lineup. Giles is a much better 3 hitter. A little speed at the top. Pmac/Scott Harrison (lol) are interchangable I guess for now.
Me fail English? That's unpossible!

Um
Why no Carlin? Haven’t we determined that Luke Carlin + Starting = Padres win?
I mean, my theory is 100% accurate right now. How can you argue with that?

Giles should have pretended that he couldn’t pull the ball out of that nook, the run wouldn’t have scored.

Weak AB by Khalil
How many times am I going to have to type that this season. What was the Padre Drinking Game equivalent of a three-pitch strikeout by Khalil?

I told them “you know the Padres are playing right now, yea i need to see that”

His pitches are obviously too far up this inning.

You send Bard out to talk to him as long as he can. You send Balsley out there. There are ways to stall.

that made the score 6-2 rather than 4-2 they were able to warm up just fine.

I've always thought
that when the guy starts struggling you need to warm someone up asap
especially for relievers too because think about it, the guys job is to get people out… if he doesn’t get someone out then he’s not doing his job and get someone ready
when wolf gave up a double and a hr someone should have been warming up
