The only explanation I can think of as to why Figgins is leading off

is because Soscia thinks it’s April and he’s “trying to get Figgy going!”

When the shortstop and 3rd baseman let an easy pop fly fall right between them, and look bewildered, that doesn’t scream “mentally focused” to me.

Why doesn’t MLB just add $10 to the annual fee and include the post season, I feel gipped I gotta pay again. I buy every year AND the wbc… bullies.

Had they added ten dollars, like you say, I would have paid. I haven’t bought postseason TV though, which sucks for me becauie I don’t watch TV and don’t have cable… I have to go to my Dad’s or a friend’s house to watch.

52" tv and ps3

but no “tv” / cable.

I paid for the wbc and I’d pay for carribbean series if they’d show it. It’s still worth it – the whole season, the archive, even WITH the technical problems which are not rare but they make you feel like a sucker!

I think Scioscia may need to change pitchers.

Santana looks to have lost it.

Gaudin

Last pitcher in the yankee pen.

Which makes me laugh.

Probably used way too many pitchers earlier. That could bite the Yankees later.

He trusts his offense

They do put up a lot of it normally.

They still have starters than can throw

I know im late to this party

but MLB Trade rumors says that the padres interviewed Kim Ng from the dodgers to be GM today….what do you all think of her as a candidate?

by Dugout Dude on Oct 17, 2009 9:59 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

she's just the token minority candidate

she’s got no shot

i thought she was the token minority candidate for a few others GM jobs too...

I’m sure she’s qualified, just not really getting a fair chance from anybody. I’m at least open to the idea….i dont see how she would be a better candidate than Hoyer though.

I thought we said

SD_Pads1 was the minority candidate?

by Dude52089 on Oct 17, 2009 10:03 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Eckstein complained

said being short didn’t make you a minority!

Hunter probably swung at ball 4

but at least he didn’t make 2 outs. And now a single can score two.

Earlier he swung at a ball

that bounced 3 feet in front of the plate and two feet outside.

It got away from the catcher and Vlad actually made it safely to first, but the ump blew the call and ruled him out.
