San Diego @ Chicago


The game is starting soon.  I better get this thing up.  I wish our line up had guys that hit for high average.  That seems like it'd be really fun to watch.

Go Padres!

Here we go, Estes, here we go!

As Ted would say, “We’re all counting on you.”

The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

All I hear about is America’s team and ripping San Diego’s lineup and what a great offense the Cubs are. Can’t we just get credit for not throwing strikes? We had a comparable number of hits last night.

And they're picking up Edmonds tomorrow.

No matter what happens next

He couldn’t hack it in PETCO.

Great... it's windy

15mph SSW (in from right-center field)

This ought to be interesting.

Chicago radio today said get out the ass wax for Estes...

...then promptly kissed that of Peavy when he was interviewed on WSCR out here. I kinda wanna go watch that Garvey home run a few more times.

geez

that was a homerun before he even threw it

Welcome back, Estes!

Ok, lets get the bullpen up.

Well that's out of the way.

The goal has been lowered to him making through the start without disappearing for two years.

That wasn't too bad.

I’m sure it was just a freak homer. Won’t happen again.

I really want to chalk it up to 'first day back' jitters.

Whatever a jitter is.

Wind blowing out at Wrigley

Marquis isn't fooling anybody.

If Estes can throw up a couple zeros….we might be okay.

Easy.

Give him a couple of innings here.

E-Gon likes that dive move

I like it too. It shows determination. I would like it better if he actually caught the ball in one of those moves.

This Estes thing could not have been a worse idea.

If Ledezma is healthy he should be starting.

Why isn’t Hensley getting starts in Portland to get him ready in the event we need him to come up and start games?

by Drama on May 13, 2008 5:40 PM PDT   0 recs

We are hitting the ball hard right at people

this is frustrating

He did?

I know Prior did.

by Drama on May 13, 2008 5:44 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

You're right.

Had to shut it down for 4-5 days. Should be back in the next couple days.

He had a good '06

Anybody

ever eaten at Mama Mia’s in PB. The owner is CRAY-ZEE!
My waiter contends he is always like that… personally I think a little nose candy may have contributed to his personality!
Talking of crack cocaine, 3-0! WTF!

I'm trying to think of the GLBer....

....that kept begging the Padre FO to keep Gerut and E-Gon on the 25-man roster coming out of spring training. They should totally hire that guy. We’d be like in 2nd place right now.
