XX Sports Radio Interview: Bud Black (MP3)
- The poor season is a good way to look at young players like Headley and Hundley. It might be a silver lining to a bad season.
- Bud isn't aware of what is going on with Giles. "I know that Brian enjoys San Diego and the Padres".
- Brian Giles is a very desirable player for other teams.
- Bud thinks it's 50/50 but he'd guess Giles might remain a Padre.
- The misinterpretation might have been due to the fact that it was the umpire's first major league game.

50/50?
I would’ve said that after the Red Sox made the claim, there was a 70% chance that they didn’t really want him, a 70% chance that the Padres wouldn’t be able to come up with a trade that worked and a 90% chance that Giles wouldn’t actually want to have to relocate to Boston.
That doesn’t add up to 50% chance unless Bud’s working with some higher math.

Also, how does Bud Black figure 50-50?
Especially considering he had a feeling that Giles would stay. It’s not 50-50 then. It’s gotta at least be 51-49 if he’s willing to guess one way or another. Unless Bud Black is making a completely uneducated guess, which I might not be surprised about.
