Nothing good has happened to this team since

the moment Milton Bradley stepped on Mike Cameron’s hand and subsequently had his ACL torn in half in that same game. That was such a freak set of occurrences, it seemed we might never see such thing again in our lifetime….

Only to be quickly followed by: Tony Gwynn Jr., Hoffman meltdowns, Holliday not touching the plate, Milton then leaving, Jim Edmonds, Peavy on the DL, Christ Young’s face destroyed in the same inning as Josh Bard goes down probably for the season….

How about

Our #1 draft pick getting Tommy John. Can’t remember the timeline on that one.

I forgot that one! Not only is Matt Bush himself a disaster

but the very moment he started to become useful…..his arm falls off.

I was actually talking about Nick Schmidt.

And Carillo went down too, but that was well before.

I watched Matt Bush play against my high school team

he sucked and i never understood why he was even on the radar for a draft pick

The following high school players suck. I have attached their names. I know.

woah woah woah

I totally wanted Steven Drew

and had no clue that they wanted Matt Bush until Kevin Towers stupid butt face picked him

the only fault i have is i never punched KT in the face when I saw him in the Padres store

I'm trying to think

of which positional player I’d most like to see pitch tonight…

by Winfield's Ghost on May 21, 2008 8:48 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

didn't Adrian

pitch in high school or sometime?

That picture kills me

the look on his face makes me really sad

Dumb

Sorry to be a downer, but that was a high risk/low reward play. We had the batter at two strikes and two outs. If that ball gets by Adrian, then it’s a run.

by BeantownFriar on May 21, 2008 9:00 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I'll disagree

for the simple fact that we’re down four runs and exactly ZERO teams have any fear of our catchers’ arms.

Like the "statement"

hate the timing.

Our catcher in college used to do dumb shit like that all the time so I’m pretty sensitive about it….

Downer.

We’re down by four runs…Thatcher is pitching and Buddy is managing.

Let the kid throw it around the yard a bit. We need some fun and excitement.

After tonight...

St. Louis is easily my most-hated team. Then the Mariners, Dodgers, Cubs, and Rockies.

I'd swap put Cubs for Yankees

possible Red Sox. But the other 4 are spot on.

Easy,now.

If Carlin had started, it would be his blown knee.

It would be useless for any player to attempt to explain successful batting.

Gooch strikes out when he doesn’t have a chance to hit into a double play. WHere’s Egon?
