Open Thread, 6/17: Padres vs Mariners

Seattle Mariners at San Diego Padres, Jun 17, 2009 7:05 PM PDT
The Padres continue their quest for the fabled consecutive innings without scoring a run streak. I believe they can do it. I believe with all my heart.
Another thing that I believe is that these so called younger players that Kevin Towers is alluding to should just go ahead and be given ABs. Brian Giles is not Tony Gwynn. When we sucked back at the turn of the century, there was still some benefit to continue starting our aging right fielder. Now, there is no such benefit. I want to see other people.
Another thing I believe is that Ichiro Suzuki is super likable. Are there people who don't like Ichiro? Is there any sort of backlash against him? I know jbox sometimes says he doesn't like him, but I think that's cause Jonny Dub likes Ichiro too much, which makes jbox jealous.
Don't forget about your haiku.
our team can not score
our pitchers are unhealthy
but yet we will win

I'm pretty sure the entire Mariner team doesn't like Ichiro
Plus, I don’t like him.

Gaudin
has definitely done a better job throwing strikes. He’s mostly eliminated his walk problems from earlier this season. Now though, he’s got a problem throwing too many juicy pitches to hit.
Happy medium Chad, happy medium!!

Well I guess we'll see how he does.
It’s possible that both of them work out. It’s not like our SS position is any less up in the air than 2B.
by Zach (maestro876) on Jun 17, 2009 7:53 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Eric
has been having a good amount of success as well, high average and OBP, though not as much power. Sogard has been an all-star with Lake Elsinore and now with San Antonio.
It’s nice to actually have a lot of talent in the system. Too bad none of it is close than a year away.
