Open Thread: 5/18, Padres vs. Mariners
San Diego Padres at Seattle Mariners, May 18, 2008 1:10 PM PDT
I'm fascinated with the way Ichiro puts the bat on the ball. I really only saw his last at bat last night but he was looking fastball inner half and he could foul off every breaking ball on the outer half at will. It was very Gwynn like. The swings are different but the results were the same. He's only been in the league 7 years and he has 1600+ hits, pretty amazing player.
Check out this article on Eric Show .
Look at this line up! Gerut and Edgar Gonzalez kicking it off and Carlin catching. I think Buddy is playing to win.
Go Padres!!

Come ooooooooooooooooon.
He almost got it right. Iguchi is on fire right now! Tony Clark is TERRIBLE. Egone at DH and Iguchi at 2B. Or visa versa. Either way.

I'm so angry at BB
Last night was so stupid. I swear this is his thought line, “lets play the guys who aren’t hitting so they can get their swings back, and let the guys (gerut and egone) who are hitting well sit on the bench, they don’t need the practice.” I hate him so much right now.

if he is really worried about guys getting their swings back
he should be using Bardo as DH too

But the Alderson teat determines is pay since frugality bought him cheaply.

cheapness wasn't a problem
when they went out and got Edmonds now was it?
Towers makes ballsy moves that sometimes pay off
other times he doesn’t take his head out of his butt long enough to know whats going on

dude towers coulda got little T
and we coulda been in the post season
he traded Ben Davis away and made everyone angry
I can’t stand Mike Cameron and I loved X Nady so that doesn’t fly with me
I’m not saying he doesn’t make good moves… Like Barfield for Kouzmanoff and getting Young and Gonzalez but he makes some bad moves too that many many people don’t want or understand and it doesn’t work out

Bring in the Heat
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Estes
might not be able to handle a real 100-pitch game yet, it’s only his second game back after like 2 years of injury. Also, Buddy might be taking it easy on him so that he’s healthy enough to be potentially traded.

Yes.
Only Adrian and Giles are doing things offensively.
Two runs a game from Adrian’s HRs aren’t enough, even though Estes held it.
