Around SBN: Knicks 90, Raptors 87: "Shump and Lin wouldn't let us lose."

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!!

According to pirate announcers

It's a good place for him

Looks like Nady and Marte

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

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.

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
