It’s official. We’ve surrendered. 100 losses or bust.

Those banks are so awesome – wish I was going.

with the Washington Nationals?

How dare you have fewer runs scored and RBI’s than us. The nerve! ...And a lower OBP and slugging percentage. A-holes!

I believe we can achieve the 100 losses, but will the Nationals steal our thunder by attempting to suck worse than we do?

Has a very limited frame of reference. “They have a great team” indeed. As compared to ours, maybe. We have a great team too, and if they puts the lotion on like a good team, we’ll let them out of the hole.

Jon Heyman from SI has a list of 11 starting pitchers that could be dealt...two of them are Padres.

Randy Wolf, Padres. Solid guy but another of the brittle bunch. “He seems to expire at 125 innings,’’ one GM said.

Greg Maddux, Padres. He can still pitch, but he loves it in San Diego, and one person close to him said he doubted he would accept a trade elsewhere (and that apparently includes even his beloved Cubs or Braves, or the convenient Dodgers, the three other teams he’s pitched for in his illustrious career).

Little tidbit about The Wolf from MLBTradeRumors.com: “Wolf has veto power over trades to 14 teams.”

Look for Mark Sweeney to be in a Padre uniform in a couple of weeks.
