Smells LIke Padres in Here - Friday Edition
I'm not sure who those guys were yesterday in Padres uniforms, but they certainly didn't look like the guys we've seen for the last two and a half months.
We're alive!
Edgar is getting it done. Also down at the bottom here - no one wanted Ledezma and Latos returns to the DL.
The Padres head to Cleveland where the river catches fire every so often. Josh Banks takes on Jeremy Sowers. Game time is 4:05pm PDT.

This Sowers guy must be some kind of workhorse

Whoa that's gonna be rough on the guy
All kidding aside, the Padres face only lefties against Cleveland (Cliff Lee is left handed and is the real starter for Saturday). PMac better get real cozy with that Cleveland bench since pinch hitters can take games off in DH games. I hope this doesn’t mean that Gerut won’t play until we get to Yankee Stadium.
I watched all 23 innings and all I got was this lousy signature.

The fighting Gonzali
They have sure worked out better than the Giles brothers. I remember discussing the merits of EGon in spring training. One of the things working against him is his age, most hitters are declining by age 30 with their best years between 24 and 26. Now I’m not one to say a guy’s too old to play, but with EGon his numbers are so good in the minors that for multiple teams to see those numbers and decide that he can’t help him at the major league level throws up a bunch of red flags. That, and the fact he played in A and AA for a bit last year after a couple of years playing well in AAA. I don’t think I’ll ever understand why the Cardinals thought he couldn’t help them at 2B last year unless by a statistical glitch he was left out of their minor league reports. Whatever the reason I’m glad he’s providing a solid #2 hitter and some decent 2B. Iguchi was playing well, but I’ll be fine with EGon for the rest of year if need be. Iguchi can be a late inning defensive replacement and Sunday starter.

That's the best compliment anyone has ever given me
I have absolutely no urge to cover this thread in retro images.

Sure feels good.
I can’t believe that Raider Fans have nothing better to do than join a Padres OT. Don’t they have a lot of sewing, costume designing, makeup applications, etc. to do before August.

A Funny moment at Yesterday's game
After spending the morning over at the US Open, watching Peavy and boys kick some Dodger ass was just priceless and well worth the drive from LA…but I digress
As I was getting a beer at one of the beer stands on field level, I see this guy sporting a TERMEL SLEDGE authentic jersey…knowing how popular the T man is with all you GLBers I wish I had my camera at the moment to share the comedy
Now let’s get these Indians!

Because no one would freely wear that jersey...
...I’m guessing that actually was Sledge himself.

Did Sister Sledge play for the Pads?
it could have been their jersey, ‘cause nobody would wear a Terrmel jersey. He has no fans.

Non sequiter
Casting their version of “Lost in Translation,” a movie abut Westerners who form a bond in Tokyo, the Padres were without Bill Murray, the movie’s protagonist and a baseball fan who introduced Padres players at a home game a few years ago. But they had Peavy, who alone tends to spell doom for the Dodgers.
Mr. Editor, this is a stupid paragraph and has nothing to do with the story.

They're like
“haha, it’s like that movie, ‘Lost in Translation’... except without any of the story elements.”

Towers said a week to 10 days from Monday
he wants Headley to be under zero pressure under the biggest spotlight in the world in Yankee Stadium.

Darren & Billy
were discussing it while I was on lunch. They think he will join the minor leaguers for the exhibition against the cubbettes and then join the team in New York.

Which of course means
3 games of Huber in LF vs the Indians and their sinister weekend trio.
