Let the ripping begin
I voted PMac. Left-handed, low-power bat, below-average defender.
I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high
And then I'll rise with the tide with a lust for life...
at least
his tubness and lack of swift movement won us a game…

you are in the negatives
when you subtract each game that he could be blamed for the loss
He brings nothing to the table except that he tries hard. As he well should.
I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high
And then I'll rise with the tide with a lust for life...
point taken
you really could make an argument for any of these guys, its like choosing between a bath in vomit or poop.
http://www.wellbelowthemendozaline.blogspot.com
meant to say...
EITHER of THOSE guys. i like the other ones…

For sure
It’s easier to pick the guys who aren’t worthless.
Khalil has a glove
Egon brings about potential BroBIs
and… Koooz is fun to yell.. I guess…
I’m aware that the latter two are only redeeming qualities to my personal entertainment.

yeah
and EGon kinda looks like the guy from Clerks, which is always entertaining. then again so does AGon.
for some reason i like Hu-Bombs too. no idea why, he has very few redeeming qualities. that throw half way up the first base line from a few nights ago worried me.

I think
Egon looks like a police sketch of Adrian
I’m ignoring Slippery Bob for now because I like the nickname “Slippery Bob,” he hit a HR that one time, and we only throw him in against lefties, days when we traditionally suck anyhow.

Agon
looks like George Lopez’s buddy Ernie from the show.
C’mon, google it. You put 40lbs on Agon, and that’s him.
Still waiting for "Baseball Today" to give the Padres some love.
i've always thought that
everytime i watch George Lopez and he comes on i scream “ADRIAN!”
Trust me, death is the best argument for moisturizer.
OMG
I have always thought that. K, this is like one of the reasons I love glb
I wish gaslamp still sold t-shirts...or better yet, I wish I had found gaslamp when they were still selling shirts

michael barret
has the throwing arm of a prepubescent johnny damon. i’m waiting for one of the molina’s to try and steal on him. we got him for his bat. which apparently is infested with termites because its missing. he kills me. daily.

And that he wouldn't leave in the off-season. We're literally "stuck" with him.
With a name like Smuckers, it has to be good!

I wonder

I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high

Wait!!!!!! I voted before I saw Paul McAnulty. NO!!! I CHANGE MY VOTE!!!!

Edgar gets two votes
but Hairston gets none so far?
This poll was probably a bad idea.

I bet if Hoffy blew a save yesterday
He would be leading the votes
I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high

I'm not questioning the selections :)
Just making an observation on the surge of Huber votes. We barely see the guy, lol.

I can't believe Khalil
got 4 votes, but at least he’s not leading. I fully expect ‘Tec to start creating multiple aliases just to boost that total.
I voted for Huber
ASS!

Voted Khalil
His base hit didn’t impress me much. I’ve had to sit through and entire season of him sucking.
I’m so glad he never smiles. If I ever saw him smile while he’s swinging the bat like that, I’d have to buy a ticket to SD from PDX and….I don’t know. I’ll figure out what to do on the flight.
Still waiting for "Baseball Today" to give the Padres some love.
I really find it hillarious
that so many people get so worked up over one of the more docile and intelligent guys in all of baseball. There are people out there who seem to suggest by their invective that Khalil would like nothing more than to consistently make outs at the plate.
Sometimes it’s a good idea to step back and realize that a player on the team is not doing anything to deliberately affect you personally. It’s not like Khalil walks to the plate, sees a guy in the crowd and thinks, “I’m totally going to wave at this slider in the dirt to piss that guy off.”
I know I’m a huge Khalil fan. But seriously, do people really get THIS worked up over him? It’s not like the guy is a serial drug user and child mollester.
Khalil walks to the plate
and thinks “I am going to swing at this slider in the dirt even though I know it’s going to be in the dirt because I’ve convinced myself that I am going to hit it and no one remembered to press the reset button on my control panel.”

Ichiro probably does
Chipper and Berkman seem to be hitting everything this year.

Point taken
but I think it is funny that you’re Khalil’s biggest fan and love his emotionless docile demeanor when you are the first to drop an F bomb or get totally worked up about just about anything except Khalil sucking.
I might swear
or post stupid things when I drink, but I think most of my outrage is genuine. I get pissed off about people being douche bags and national media outlets writing like ass.
I think genuine outrage can be cathartic. I try not to get too pissed off about what happens in a game unless it’s like one of our guys getting drilled or an absolutely horrible call by an umpire.
And please don’t confuse my swearing for outrage. It’s just one of the many ways I choose to articulate my positions, especially during an Open Thread.
only everyday players??
so we have 13 position player on the roster, and 8 of them are on this pole. So five players are not worthless. (not counting DL)
1. Agon
2. B. Giles
3. Carlin
4. Tony Clark
why can’t I name the 5th player not on the list. And how does Tony and Carlin not get list?

Black totally should've been on this list
I would’ve voted for him until my computer exploded.

Because everyone
forgets about Craig Stansberry.
He’s a lot like the Spanish Inquisition in that way.
haha
NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise…surprise and fear…fear and surprise…. Our two weapons are fear and surprise…and ruthless efficiency…. Our three weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency…and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope…. Our four...no… Amongst our weapons…. Amongst our weaponry…are such elements as fear, surprise…. I’ll come in again.

Third'd
Russell Branyan has done more.

I left off Agon and Giles
since they couldn’t really be considered the most worthless and if you were voting for them then you were just messing around.
Wow, what a negative poll
Shouldn’t we be more supportive of the players on the team we love? And shouldn’t we all agree that PMac is the most worthless Padre? I can’t believe he’s only coming in second!
Snackanulty
I can’t honestly see any reason to vote for PMac, considering he is fifth on the team in EqA (THIRD among non-pitchers), and sixth in offensive VORP (Fifth among non-pitchers). He may not be a superstar, but he is far from worthless.
I looked at it like this
Who’s the guy we could get least for in a trade?
I think it’s PMac. He has done a lot better offensively, walking more than he strikes out now, but I still don’t like his “glove.”
can you cure us of this fate
mock the litany in its face
I take it
this is your vote for most amazing player ever? In that case, I understand why Huber won. He is a true hero.
A mind without purpose will walk in dark places.
