Spring Training Game Thread: 3/8 Padres vs. Colorado

PrintLet's see if Muhammod Ali's clubhouse visit did anything to motivate the team. If the Padres lose this game, I will consider it a direct insult to the great pugilist.
In other news a dog "threw" out the first pitch and peed on the mound. That reminds me of the time a dog snuck into the our dug out at Granite Hills High School during an SDABL baseball game and peed on one of our bats. As gross as it was, I think it brought our hitters good luck. So today I'm predicting a pitchers duel.
Gwynn 8, Eckstein 4, Gonzalez 3, Headley 5, Blanks 7, Venable 9, Hundley 2, Cabrera 6, Correia 1

Pic looks like
they’re about to punch him. The Hairstons look like they’re joking, Mr. Ali looks concerned.

Wasn't Richard supposed to make the start?
Or am I missing something?

Richard was pushed back
Clayton Richard, who was supposed to start and throw two innings before Sunday’s rainout, will instead pitch one inning out of the bullpen Monday after starter Kevin Correia throws two innings
I did miss that
thanks for the update

have they ever fired a batting coach
during spring training?

I think "Batting Coach Firing Room" is in PETCO Park.
They’d have to drive Ready all the way back to SD to do it.

so that would be...
the Ready room?

Looks like I got here just in time for some Pads action...
2 on. None out. 0-3 count…
by theodore donald kerabatsos on Mar 8, 2010 2:17 PM PST reply actions
That should have been 3-0 count
But now i’m realizing that stattracker didn’t have it backwards. It was 0 balls 3 strikes. Darnell strikes out.
I’m retarded.

0-3
technically the worst batter’s count possible.
I was dating this girl from Canada... after about a month I found out she didn't know what sport the Padres played, she thought "padre" was spelled p-o-d-r-a-y and she thought it was some kind of a fish. Dealbreaker.
Double Double!
Huffman and Antonelli!

I'm really pulling for Antonelli to have a monster spring training and win over the starting 2B job.

Would love to see Antonelli catch fire
this Spring. Otherwise, I don’t see the Pads hanging on to him.

.375 with 2 doubles so far
in a very very small sample size

roster
out of curiosity, if Antonelli makes the starting day roster, who gets bumped?

No need for Eck, Hairy Jr, and Anton.

God willing Eckstein is not long for this lineup.

I figure he will get injured by May
and then you bring up Antonelli

makes sense
I don’t see Eck losing his roster spot due to bad performance… I think even if Antonelli hits .500 this spring, he starts the season in AAA.

He won't
Eckstein sucks but he’s there because hes a “clubhouse” guy
