Here's the press release

from padres.com. Weird it doesn’t mention Thatcher.

Wow

I’m not sure how to feel about this. I LOVED making fun of McAnulty.

I had to read it a few times before it sunk in.

But you know, I have a strange suspicion he’ll be back…

Certainly seems like a

“what the hell do we have to lose?” kind of move.

YAY. 100 LOSSES!!!

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 8, 2008 3:58 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

I don't know dude

This could potentially knock us down to 90 losses. I’m kind of excited to see Myrow and Ambres hit.
But with Thatcher in the pen again, anything is possible!

Suggestions...

Bud Black – borderline mentally retarded
Kahlil Greene -can’t wait to get back to the East Coast and play for the Bucs
Tomko – he’ll be back soon enough

I should feel bad now

How I mistreated him, yelling at him every time he didn’t make a play, lots of those, etc..

by SanDiegoKev on Jul 8, 2008 4:52 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Yeah

I just lost 60% of my joke material.

Ok, this is just weird...

Oil prices fall $5 on news that Paul McAnulty has been sent down.

Think of the money the FO will save

on the post game buffet

It's weird they're calling up Myrow.

He only plays 1B and we’ve already got two first basemen.

I am glad Ambres is up though. He’s been killing the ball in AAA.

Was just thining about that

Wondering if Myrow can play the OF.

Not that it matters if he can’t, given what we’ve run out there so far this year, but…

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 8, 2008 4:04 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Hasn't Adrian played every inning at 1B

except for the last half of the 22 inninger?

We really do need a true backup for him.

Tony Clark

is offended by that statement.

SnackAnulty always looked like he should be wearing one of those...

hats with the propeller on the top. Do they wear those in Portland?

Excited to see the new guys

Am hoping for good things!

Thatcher?

c’mon didn’t we learn that lesson yet?

You know I could go for a sandwich, but uh, I'm not gonna open two jars. I can't be opening and closing all kinds of jars.

How funny is it going to be

when we see him in the 7th tonight?

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 8, 2008 5:09 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

NIce to see them doing something.

I just don’t understand what the hell T. Clark is still doing on the roster…especially with Myrow up now.

by Drama on Jul 8, 2008 5:16 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs

I'm actually glad Thatcher is back.

If used in the right situations, I think he can be effective for us.

You know those two-point conversion charts NFL coaches have? The ones that show them all the different possible scores and whether or not they should go for two or kick the extra point?

KT and Grady should have one of those made for Buddy. A Thatcher Conversion Chart. It could show all the possible scenarios (nobody out, one out-one runner on, bases-loaded, etc)....Buddy would check the chart and it would either say: PULL HIS ASS NOW, BUDDY!!! or LEAVE HIM IN.

You mean like how they used him effectively...LAST YEAR?

Why is it so hard to remember? Were all the DVDs destroyed or something?

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 8, 2008 6:29 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

THATCHER?!?!?!

Myrow is a AAAA player at best. Ambres can hit.

Can we be saved? Has the damage all been done?
Is it too late to reverse what we've become?
