Adrian Gonzalez and Balls in Play :: Friar Forecast
"Adrian Gonzalez’s BABIP of 0.280 was exceptionally low. Amongst Padres with more than 250 plate appearances, only Brian Giles and Luis Rodriguez had lower BABIPs. What makes this so surprising is that Gonzalez hit a line-drive in 21 percent of his at-bats." -

Young execs waiting in GM wings | MLB.com: News
In a baseball world in which the executives pulling the trigger on prospective hires for GM seem to be going younger and younger, it's tempting to wonder who among the 30- and even 20-something set might be next to take over the reins of a team.

I heard some of the
Garfinkel interview last night. I like how Hacksaw basically takes credit for the lower ticket prices.

$5 for real, not-watered-down beer is even better than the 5-for-5
I’m way more excited for this than I should be.

I hope they still have Stone.
$5 for a 14oz Stone? I feel like security is going to tackle me like I ran onto the field.
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔

No way
If I drop an Andrew Jackson on brew, I become Adrian Peterson. I’ll high step it all the way to the endzone.

Yeah, but you'd fumble your beer

I'm really interested to see how Adrian does this year.
Will he stay patient at the plate and take his walks? Or will be force it?

Still no comment from SammyG regarding $5 beers....
In his defense, it is difficult to type while sobbing uncontrollably for joy.
Math tells me
that if every starting demanding $3 beer and they met us in the middle at $4….a $20 bill would get one extra beer. 5 beers would mean primetime@petco.
Oh internet, what a wicked web you weave.
Tom heard that I'm turning 21 in April.
So you’re welcome for the $5 beer, guys.

Next year I'm gonna be rooting like a son-of-a-gun for these guys and for Blackie ... I'm gonna be rooting for the next general manager here, rooting for the city, the fans, everybody. I think a lot of San Diego." -Kevin Towers
You kids are making me feel older than I usually do.
Hope you know it’s all downhill from here.
