The Padres surge ahead in the race for the worst record in baseball.  Incredible fortitude shown over the last three days as they allowed themselves to get swept by the Dodgers.

Looks like Trevor will be back.  I like this move.  The team is going to be terrible again next year and his role as closer just won't be that important.  Keep Trevor around one more year, save some games and then let him retire as a Padre.

All of the minor league affiliates will remain the same for the foreseeable future.

You know how I know the Padres are serious about losing 100 games?  Because Shawn Estes is back, baby!  He starts tonight against Jeff Suppan in Milwaukee.  Game time is 5:05pm PDT.
