Open Thread: 7/25, Padres vs. Pirates

San Diego Padres at Pittsburgh Pirates, Jul 25, 2008 4:05 PM PDT


We haven't seen Josh Bard's name in the line up for weeks and weeks now, but there he is.   Luis Rodriguez is apparently a Padre too, I had no idea.  That means Khalil is riding the pine.

Go Padres!!

Pitt broadcasters

Saying he may have been traded.

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 25, 2008 4:21 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Could be

But why would he start a game if something was close. That doesn’t really make much sense in my brain.

According to pirate announcers

Nady and Marte have been traded but no one knows who or for what

We lost all of the other games we had a lead in. Let’s hope we can continue that trend.

Looks like Nady and Marte

were aquired by the Yankees per MLBTR. No word on who the pirates get in return.

they would just be switching dugouts cuz we are still in it!

I've always wanted X back

but OF is not our weakness this days. We really need bullpen help more than anything. And a decent catcher.

Looks like

the Pirates got quite the haul. Ross Ohlendorf, Jose Tabata, and two other minor leaguers.

Khalil

I wasn’t as conscience about baseball in ‘98, much as I loved it. I have a much stronger attachment to KG.

No XX says its just for late defensive, Egon has had some issues there

When Gooch comes back, they expect him to come in for late defense as well
