Game Thread: 7/9, Padres vs. Gigantes

San Diego Padres at San Francisco Giants, Jul 9, 2009 7:15 PM PDT



You guys sure complain a lot when we forget to put up a Game Thread or put it up 3 hours late.  I bet you complained when your professor didn't show up for class.  Whining stuff like "We want to learn!"  We had a name for you guys back in college: nerds.  When my professor was late, I'd be counting down those 15 minutes so I could bail and do college stuff like throw a Frisbee in the courtyard, a keg stand at a frat house or trashcan a freshman.

Anyway here's your Game Thread, nerds.

Go Padres!

We're 0-2 in SF this year

But we’re also 2-0 vs. Lincecum.

Something’s gotta give…

Nothing against Hairy (R.I.P.)

But I feel MUCH more comfortable with Anthony patrolling CF.

by Drama on Jul 9, 2009 7:28 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Sure.

But wouldn’t be nice to have his bat against San Francisco?

by Zach (maestro876) on Jul 9, 2009 7:30 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I hate Molina.

He sucks and he f**king murders us. He’s like our new Bonds.

by Drama on Jul 9, 2009 7:31 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

His numbers

against the Padres aren’t that great.
But it seems like he always gets the big hit against us.

I remember him killing Hoffman several times last year also.

20 HR's

in 85 ip ..

that has to be some sort of record, right?

by wrveres on Jul 9, 2009 7:33 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

checking the game log.

over half his starts have been in petco too

552

by wrveres on Jul 9, 2009 7:36 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

He's actually even on games started home/away.

He’s started 7 at home and this is his 7th road start.

by Drama on Jul 9, 2009 7:40 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

yeah, that dodger game killed him.

4 hr’s …

but it is still an amazing of amount of HR’s to be giving up.

full season, whats that, 55-60 hr’s?

552

by wrveres on Jul 9, 2009 7:42 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

eh,,,

more like 45-50 .. but it is still a ton.

by wrveres on Jul 9, 2009 7:43 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

He's at one HR every 4.25 innings?

What’s average # of innings for a starter that makes 32 starts? 210? 215?

It’s like 50 HR’s.

Clarification....

Did Mud say our relievers have thrown more innings in July than our starters? Did I hear that right?

by Drama on Jul 9, 2009 7:43 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

i missed it

but it wouldn’t surprise me.

552

by wrveres on Jul 9, 2009 7:44 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Close

I decided to look into it…

With 9 games in July under our belt, the Padres have a 1-8 record. While our relievers have thrown 36.2 innings, our starters have thrown 45.1 innings. That’s a breakdown of roughly 45% to 55%.

Second of all, I happen to be very busy. All of my Death’s Head Hawkmoths and I are in the process of metamorphosizing and I can’t seem to get my damn peen tucked between my legs. It’s just not cooperating.

I thought the Giants were

a big surprise last year also.
They only won 70 something games, but a lot of people thought they would be one of the worst teams in baseball.
Instead the Padres filled that role.

by strummer on Jul 9, 2009 8:05 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

This season:

The Giants are last in OPS+ in the NL.
They are first in ERA+ in the NL.

They couldn’t be more lopsided on the side of pitching.

by brewer090 on Jul 9, 2009 8:08 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

In 1998:

We were fifth in OPS+
We were fifth in ERA+

Petco Park is so extreme ...

that the pitching and hitting were about the same those years. But no one noticed because the park skews the game so much.

by brewer090 on Jul 9, 2009 8:18 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

2005

sixth in OPS+, 14th in ERA+.

They were actually a hitting team. I didn’t realize it was that extreme.

by brewer090 on Jul 9, 2009 8:20 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

2006

third in OPS+
sixth in ERA+

88 wins. Nice team.

by brewer090 on Jul 9, 2009 8:23 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

1998. Yeah.

98 wins, right? Would have won 100 easily if not for a below .500 September.

A little off topic but

I just figured out that with 38 more wins Bud Black takes over 3rd place for the most wins in Padre history by a manager behind only Bruce Bochy’s 951 wins & Dick Williams 337 wins.

The real question is does he get it this year?
