Dear Buddy,
Adrian has a brother. His name is Edgar. He’s actually on our roster, sitting not far from where you are sleeping now. Please allow him to play. Thanks.
I would really rather see more of Carlin, personally

Wow Pujols
Just take out our whole team
I watched all 23 innings and all I got was this lousy signature.
oh my

Pujols has to feel very bad

So is Barrett getting a call as we speak?

I don't think he's smiling

So...uhhh...
I turned on the game about 15 mins ago and Pujols has single handedly taken out the Padres battery…and I know, he’s not to blame at all..but…...OUCH!!!
It's subconcious
I still hate him from when he took a swing at Gary Bennett after he though Eaton hit him on purpose with a curveball.

Excellent point...BUT
Getting ripped by an Albert Pujols liner is a frightening thing. Look at what happened to Cam with his OF collision. It’s a scary thing that you just can’t forget.

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….

Brian Barton's Higher Calling
Cardinals’ Barton is a space case,Yahoo Sports
“
One day, he wants to go into space. Brian Barton turned 26 earlier this week, and though the astronaut dream tends to die about the time hormones bloom and adolescence rages, Barton never could abandon it. “The sky’s the limit,” he likes to say, and in this instance, he does so standing in front of his locker in the St. Louis Cardinals’ clubhouse. He takes the cliche literally and figuratively, the former in his desire to float in the atmosphere and the latter in the career he has carved out in the meantime.

The umpire was hilarious there
He knew Wally was faking and didn’t even take it seriously

Hey I just thought of something
Hairston started in LF vs. a righty. Weird. When was the last that happened? What happened to PMac (not that I want him out there)?

"Hairston is a player on this team. As a player, you got to play sometimes."

Didn't Matty say that they're receiving criticism for not replaying the shot?
Who is calling for them to show it?
It doesn't matter
It’s linked on Padres.com. You can watch it onDemand as much as you want. Ch. 4 is wasting it’s moralities.

That's what I'm saying
You don’t have to play it ad nauseam, but it is newsworthy. You don’t think it’s going to be all over the news tonight?
This Shoemaker is an imposter...
He doesn’t look Malaysian at all.

Oh yeah
I dunno if someone posted it here, but CY:
Broken nose, face laceration.

I see a "possible"
Now it’s definitive.

Pujols
How is it that we even manage to get this guy out?? and for that matter why are they even pitching to him… hes a known Padres killer

did someone in the stands
just say “what happened to your thy master”???

Did catch that
but there is definitely a lot of chatter in the crowd tonight.

i've seen him do it before
but it is very rare that he gets above 88

July 31, 1996: Traded by the San Diego Padres with Bryce Florie and Marc Newfield to the Milwaukee Brewers for a player to be named later and Greg Vaughn. The Milwaukee Brewers sent Gerald Parent (minors) (September 16, 1996) to the San Diego Padres to complete the trad

I love those trade links.

$11 million earned in the big leagues according to baseball-reference.com
That’s a great career for anyone.

I think everyone's a little nutty
It’s been such an odd game, there is a weird buzz. Like the 22 inning game but it’s only the 7th.
Barrett isnt back yet
Barrett has to come back before that can start

He didn't contribute enough to get to where we are this year. =}

True, but he has looked pretty good in his rehad stint so far... so maybe its a sign of having a decent hitter besides Agon
by chaostheory1211 on May 21, 2008 9:57 PM PDT up reply actions
ummm
Giles and Kouzmanoff are fairly decent hitters

We are done.

I feel better knowing
CY was taking to Scripps Green because that is a good hospital so they will make sure everything if fine and not just be like oh you broke your nose here’s a splint bye

I guess they are moving up
They scored exactly 2 from Saturday-Monday and then 3 the last two games.

Whoever suggested...
that the injuries would fire them up, was so far off from reality. These guys look like they all want to retire.

Well
We made it through the game with most of the roster intact.
WE WIN!

It must really be painful

ahahaha, wat ever happened to them… at least they were decent

hey i got a great idea!
Lets combine the Chargers and Padres into one team! they can play both sports, football and baseball, we can call them the Pargers… Imagine Antonio Cromartie in center!
by chaostheory1211 on May 21, 2008 10:33 PM PDT up reply actions
i think at this point
the padres defensive backs and wrs could play better ball than this
i love the padres but
it pains me to watch them play such terrible baseball. i won’t go rooting for some other team though.
I have fantasies about hotter, younger baseball teams
But my religion-the San Diego Padres-prevents me from acting on them.

Yea i'm plagued with the same disease too
The Padres are my soul as heartbreaking as that is sometimes

conclusions
Bad things happen to good people like CY and Bardo
The Padres suck even worse when those bad things happen
Wally Joyner needs to sell more organic chocolate to pay for that fine he earned tonight
Albert Pujols is the root of all evil.

Finally!
jeez! the game moved quickly thru the first 3 then slowed to a snails pace!! I hope Chris heals quickly and Bardo gets better. Bring Barrett, Headley and the lot up

The cure for a losing streak is definitely to lose your best two pitchers in the same week
So, I’m optimistic.
Actually, the less CY and Jake pitch this season, the better.
Save the bullets for when it matters. This is a disaster.
they should just call up the portland beavers
kill 9 birds with 1 stone

That would actually be kind of awesome
Briefly. I would eventually want A-Gon, E-Gon, Kouz, Gooch, Giles and Greene back.
i ffeel bad for my dad
he bought a 13 game pack and this is what he gets
I've got 20 plus opening day
And I’m 1-4 so far.
I’m going to 9 road games.
I’m 0-2 so far.

Bud Black tells press
that they will know more about CY in 24-48 hours but Josh Bard is for sure on DL
and will know more with MRI tomorrow.
But CY is concious
you can not keep bumping your head against reality and saying it is not there.
He looked like he was about to get up right after getting hit
But the medical staff seemed to tell him to stay down.
Can we get a bodyguard on A-Gon, stat?
Being the best player we have right now, he’s in line to have something horrible happen to him.
and some intense safety gear
you can not keep bumping your head against reality and saying it is not there.
So who are we calling up?
A pitcher and a catcher?
Headley?
The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.
Probably Morton since he's on the 40 man
Pitcher only gets called up if CY goes on the DL, which isn’t certain. It could be Hensley, Wells or Banks.

Kentera says...
he expects Barrett with the team tomorrow.

I know, but I heard they weren't going to activate him.

flying in tonight
but they haven’t made a decision on if he is gonna be activated
they wanted to talk to the staff in portland and see how he was doing
and probably see him throw a bit first

Not saying anyone's wrong.
Just posting what I’m hearing.

omg, i'm sad. :[
poor chris.
why did i have to be in tijuana doing errands today?
i can’t believe that my favorite padre got injured like that.
i’m never watching that footage again, it got me depressed. :[
can things get any worse for the pads?
Laura
I'm really bummed too
I’m just kind of moping about the house. Even more so than when they just lose.
Revised diagnosis for Bard
That’s a high ankle sprain. Even ouchier.

ouch
that sucks
so afraid of what they are gonna see on the MRI though
