San Diego Padres at Los Angeles Dodgers, Jun 10, 2009 7:10 PM PDT
That's a lame beachball dig at the Dodgers. It's lame because it's all I've got.
Kevin Correia goes for us today on three days rest . The last insult to the injury of the 18th inning loss to the Diamondbacks. At least we'll be able to tell if Correia has the makeup to help out in a short series should the Padres make the playo-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh man. I almost made it through the sentence without laughing.
By now you've had the chance to observe a couple of days worth of MLB Draft action. Thanks to Wonko and SD Steve for facilitating the whole thing.
I'm predicting a win tonight. I have no good reason for this prediction other than I feel it in my gut.

Not incredibly surprising
But still. Juan Pierre doing this, even for a third of a season, might be the most surprising individual story of the season. I could be wrong, of course.

But I guess one has to be more surprising than the other
I’ll say Gwynn since he’s never hit like this in the big leagues before, whereas Pierre probably has had a stretch like this before.

He wasn't terrible
He just didn’t deserve as much money as the Dodgers gave him. The Dodgers also had a bevy of prospects coming up and the finances to get other hitters. So, he looks terrible because he causes the Dodgers a bevy of roster problems.

Batting .300
doesn’t do you much good if you can’t get your OBP above league average. He also gets CSed a lot more than he should.
I forgot the other reason he has looked terrible as a Dodger. He should never, ever, ever lead off. Ever. He will damage your run production if he does.

Is Drama here?

I’ve had to step up for Drama many times

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

For some reason
Heath’s balls don’t get me as angry or anxious as Burke’s or Mujica’s.

I noticed that.
Probably settling into the role. Early this year he was touching 96, now he’s down to around 93-94.

love how the crowd cheered that right before Wilson fielded it

Earlier
Pierre hit a liner that off the bat I figured was right at Headley. The crowd cheered and my first thought was, “Did Headley fall down or are they all idiots?”
