Game Thread, 5/29: Padres vs Rockies

Chris Young takes on Jason Marquis tonight. Is it just me or does it feel like Chris Young pitches more often than the other guys?

This series is crucial. Not necessarily for the Padres, but for fans. When we were at 9-3, I was king of the world, on a boat like Leo. Then everything went horribly wrong. Now, we're in the middle of a 11-1 stretch and I'm on the boat, but my arms are at my sides, waiting for the iceberg, anticipating a nude scene, hoping for an Oscar.

If we can put some of the good kind of distance between us and .500, this will lead to good things. I may find myself PFOBin'.

Oh man. My formatting is all weird again. Maybe I should write a limerick.

Today Chris Young goes for our boys
It's the part of the job he enjoys
But don't give him no lip
He's got womanly hips
He thinks interviewers make too much noise

 

GO PADRES!!!

Marquis is only at 105 pitches after 8 full.

What a great job at the plate tonight guys. Jesus Lopez.

Here it comes, Padres fans

another incredulous comeback or another pathetic whimper into darkness. It has been prophesied.

Wouldn't that be something

but somehow, i don’t think they’re “on” tonight.

Give 'em credit

they didn’t look “on” the first game against Arizona either until late.

Pads have gotten away with murder

by going on this winning spree with Chris Burke mostly being the guy at shortstop. Can’t wait until Rodriguez and Cabrera come back. Let’s hope Burke bats about .225 in the coming weeks and only makes 1 to 2 errors and maybe wins a game with an extra base hit. I said it would be painful watching Burke play at short daily for 30 games when LRod went down….now I would say, at this moment, that it has only been mildly uncomfortable.

Yes, we count ourselves lucky

that 3rd and 4th string haven’t been completely awful.

Two out.

Not even making it difficult.

by Zach (maestro876) on May 29, 2009 8:39 PM PDT reply actions  

We got 0-fers

from our 3-4-5 batters. Can’t win like that.

Embarrassing

1. We let Jason Marquis shut us out

2. over 7-2/3 innings

3. at Coors Field.

Everybody go get drunk and come back tomorrow for a win.

Kouzmanoff batting behind Adrian against Right Handed Pitcher

Painful to watch Adrian get nothing to hit and see an undisciplined hitter like Kouz getting eaten up alive by a pitcher like Marquis with high baseball IQ — It will be nice to see Cliff Floyd batting behind Gonzalez in a few games. He Cliff, can you play left field for 90 innings or so this year as well ?

by texpadre on May 29, 2009 8:47 PM PDT reply actions  

Floyd won't be in the field

Off the bench, and probably vs. lefties only.

Eckstein

one of Scanman’s favorite Padres ever.

by jbox on May 29, 2009 8:54 PM PDT reply actions  

What if...

… the Padres fired Bud Black and made Glen Hoffman the manager so that we could all have former Dodger managers and hang out with our wangs out.

And then retire their numbers.

Who has bigger hips?

The Friar?

That's an excellent question

and we may need to make a poll.

I bet we’ll find out later that he has a hip disorder and we’ll feel real bad about this.

I hope Chris Young thinks it's an excellent question

What surgeries are available for mascots to help correct this condition?

It doesn’t appear to be debilitating, he does that Friar Shimmy so well.

That it wasn’t triceratops bones they found under Coors field, it was actually a giant mountain oyster, which of course are now extinct.

"Get on board early," Black said, alluding to, what he feels, is a crop of up-and-coming players.
