Maybin comes off as a nice kid.
He also sounds eerily similar to TGJ
Oh internet, what a wicked web you weave.
If only they could be combined into one super center fielder:

Such a ripoff of the claw
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

You're wrong
God put Adrian on this earth to make $100 million. It’s God’s will, not Adrian’s. God made him do it.

haha he better sign with the rockies then
Didn’t they deem themselves “gods team” after that late season run a couple years ago.

I think he means
“It will take an act of God to keep me in SD after 2011”
but said in a more politically correct way.
We might all wish he would just be honest and say SD can’t afford him, but I think we all know why he isn’t saying that and “can’t” say that.

If only Adrian would say: "Right now, I'm a Padre and preparing for a championship season."
Or something like that
Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...
On Gonzo being gones-o
Even if people don’t like the way Adrian is wording his statements, I can’t imagine anyone would expect him to sign for considerably less than his market value. I’m guessing with the Padres’ payroll budget, it would have to be somewhere around a 50% hometown discount.
Hehe
With five holes to plug and precious few dollars available to complete the task, general manager Jed Hoyer and his staff must be extremely accurate

So you learned your lesson in the library?
I think of it as revenge for you causing me to think about Ryan Webb’s “assets” the other night.

HOW DARE YOU!
I did no such thing.
"Well, it's just ineffable." "Oh, so I'm not 'F-able'?" "No, no, ineffable means it can't be explained." "So I'm stupid?"
DON'T YOU DARE LIE TO ME
I will destroy you!
"You're like the nicest internet person I know." - theodore donald kerabatsos
IT IS NO LIE!
Do not attack my good name with unfair accusations. I will not stand for such things. If you need to destroy me, then so be it. But keep the lies to a minimum. I got a reputation to uphold.

Oh, btw
Adrian Gonzalez for Felix Doubrant, Jed Lowrie, and Anthony Rizzo.
"Never have a motto, that's what I always say" - Me
JESUS! HARM ANAL MENACE - Name anagram, lol.
Anthony Rizzo
Oh my goodness, pretty please!
But I’d much rather have Jacoby Ellsbury somewhere in that deal. Like, just Anthony Rizzo and Jacoby Ellsbury, and maybe someone else.
ELLSBURY STEALS BASES. He would play well in Petco, in my opinion.
"You're like the nicest internet person I know." - theodore donald kerabatsos
Flip Ellsbury for Kemp to the Dodgers
"Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!"
Great interview with Maybin
Seems like a really good kid that will be easy to root for. I was one of those viewing the trade in a glass half empty mentality right off the bat but I think I’m already swaying just a few days in. Can’t wait to see what he does in spring training.
Also, anyone miss Darren’s old time slot? I used to listen to him on my lunch break and now he’s off the air by the time I get off work. I think Darren one of the best on xx1090, right up there with the Coach.
Mat Latos is the real deal...Go Lakers, Pads, and Bolts

They're each made to appear significantly better
since they come on after Hacksaw. Anyone is good compared to him.
