DePo discusses Joe Thatcher

I completely understand your frustration. Everyone is frustrated about Joe's ML performance so far in 2008... Joe being chief among that group.

It's ok, Paul. I forgive you.

As long as you promise we never have to see him again.

Thatcher gives up slam, sent down: Following a 9-5 loss to Cincinnati, the Padres optioned left-hander Joe Thatcher to Portland. Thatcher gave up five hits and retired only two batters in the seventh inning, which included Adam Dunn’s grand slam. Thatcher had an 8.42 ERA in four stints with the Padres this season. San Diego will make a move Thursday to fill the roster spot.

The only slams I wanna see him serving from now on are at Denny’s.

can you cure us of this fate

Hope he continues to dominate in AAA

So we get somebody halfway decent for him.
Until then, I’m pumped we’ve got another stud reliever in PDX. I’ll probably take in a couple of games this weekend and he’ll totally dominate and I’ll be like “what do you mean Thatcher sucks?

"We will never be the darlings of the chabliss and brie crowd who disdain us."

People in Portland are like “Damn, this Thatcher kid is awesome…why do they keep sending him back here? Their bullpen must be amazing!”
