Open Thread: 9/16, Padres vs. Rockies

San Diego Padres at Colorado Rockies, Sep 16, 2008 5:35 PM PDT


Estes tries to prove that he is still capable of pitching in the big leagues.  Every scout on Earth will be watching.  Does he still have what it takes to sign him for a 6 year contract?

Go Padres!!
