Open Thread: 6/25, Padres vs. Twins

Minnesota Twins at San Diego Padres, Jun 25, 2008 7:05 PM PDT


This is Maddux's 8th attempt to win game number 351.  Good ol' lucky number 8.  Didn't it only take him 5 tries to get to 350?  Sucks to be Maddux sometimes, he's pitched so well but our offense can't get on the board and our defense plays horrible behind him.

Gerut has to ride the pine until he learns how to bunt.

Watch and vote for Pad Squad Carrie at 8pm PST on NBC.

Go Padres!!

Carl R. Pohlad, 92, started out his business life when he joined and eventually became president and CEO of Bank Shares, Inc. and Marquette National. After years of expansion and success with his bank, Pohlad sold it in 2001 to Wells Fargo, receiving a cool $1 billion. Between those years, he also made some enormous coin in the soft drink industry for Pepsi Cola, as well as a real estate company called United Properties. In 1984, Pohlad purchased the Minnesota Twins.

Today, Carl Pohlad’s net worth stands at $3.1 billion. Forbes ranks him the 114th richest person in the United States. He is the wealthiest owner among all MLB team owners.

From Baseball Prospectus
You can generally find our upcoming event info on our handy-dandy Events page, but we’ve got some ’splaining to do on this one.

Please join us at Petco Park on Friday, July 11, for the 7:05pm Padres vs. Braves game. Prior to the game, we’ll be meeting up in the auditorium at Petco with Prospectus Today author Joe Sheehan and Paul DePodesta, Padres Special Assistant for Baseball Operations. Gates open at 5:05pm, and DePodesta will begin speaking by about 6:00pm. We anticipate a Q&A segment, so come prepared with some good questions!

To get to the auditorium, enter Petco Park at the Park Blvd. Gate, located at the corner of 10th Avenue and Park Blvd. Use the escalator or stairs to your left to access the Main Concourse. Once at the top of the escalator please look for the sign that will direct you to the auditorium.

To be admitted to the auditorium, you’ll need to purchase a game ticket by visiting www.padres.com/promo and using the promo code HITS. On July 11, bring your ID to the auditorium and you’ll be given a pass to get in for each ticket you purchased (so if you purchase three tickets, you get three passes). You must purchase a ticket this way to be admitted to the auditorium. These tickets are standard Upper Infield Reserved, there’s no markup for this event, and we’ll all be sitting together during the game. You’ll also get a sweet beach towel at the gate.

If there’s anything I’ve forgotten, please email me through the contact form and I’ll update this post as appropriate. We’ve really enjoyed these events with the Padres in the past and we’re looking forward to seeing you all at this one!

At least we don't have Shawn Chacon
"He started yelling and cussing,” Chacon said of Wade. “I’m sitting there and I said to him very calmly, ‘Ed, you need to stop yelling at me. Then I stood up and said ‘you better stop yelling at me.’ I stood up. He continued and was basically yelling and stuff and was like, ‘You need to (expletive) look in the mirror.’ So at that point I lost my cool and I grabbed him by the neck and threw him to the ground. I jumped on top of him because at that point I wanted to beat his (butt). Words were exchanged."

I was ready to boo barrett for the final time tonight

And I don’t even get the satisfaction of doing that. Stupid Twins errors.

They should converted him back to catcher

He hits better and couldn’t play the position any worse than Barret or Bard.

"The San Diego Padres have signed..."

”... the Molina parents to a 2 year deal to have another Molina.”

went to the game

the loss sucked

and the minnesota fans are loud but i actually sent next to pretty nice ones so for once i wasn’t annoyed the whole game…by the fans at least

except when they go “lets go boooooooof” i kept hearing hula hoop and it was bothering me

Trust me, death is the best argument for moisturizer.
