Email
PrintPadres are playing up in Lake Elsinore tonight. For some reason it didn't sink in that the Padres would actually be playing the Storm. I don't know who else I expected them to play.
Anyway I hope everybody is having a Good Friday.
Go Padres!
Line Up from FollowThePadres:
The #Padres lineup: Gwynn 8, Eckstein 4, Gonzalez 3, Blanks 7, Headley 5, Venable 9, Stairs O, Hundley 2, Cabrera 6. Correia pitching.

as far as I can tell, there's only one hole in our lineup...
but everybody’s saying he’s going to get traded, so lets hope for that.
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.

They have two decisions
bullpen spot and they have to remove someone from the 40 man roster to make room for Stairs.
Garrison is the likely man out
but that is cause his knee injury, and the fact they can move him to 60 day DL thus opening the spot for Stairs
Single ECAB
automatic double?

I remember him coming to my elementary school to do stories on things school kids were doing and getting a creepy douchebag vibe back then, like 20 years ago.
I used to work for a non-profit org
and he came to cover an event we had. He didn’t give a crap about our organization… he spent the whole time trying to get my boss (single mother of two) to go out for drinks with him.

Storm wearing the new more protective helmets
is that mandatory with all minor league teams now? I seem to remember that.
Me too

Uncommon Sportsman :: Absurdity in play
I think they are.
I’m pretty sure they were used in Arizona fall league, at least. They look ridiculous.
I knooooow
But you’d think there was a better way to make them without making the players look like life size bobble heads. I can’t to see the first pic of Nate Freiman wearing one. It’s gonna be hilarious!
Haha, I know
But look at them. They have got to be heavy.
Okay, I’m going to sound like a nerd for a second, but hear me out.
Did you see that show with Billy Mays where they looked for new inventions? And did you see the episode with the stuff that you could put over your hand and have a car run over it, and your hand would be fine? What if they made helmet out of that? Less heavy and bulky, and possibly just as safe? I’m game!
It's like saftey vests
they look a little ridiculous, but I’d much rather people wear them than get run over by a car
I don't care how ridiculous they look.
I’d like to see them on all major league teams.

Here's an idea
You dig a hole about knee deep behind home plate that the catcher stand in so he doesn’t have to crouch the whole game. Make him trying to go after fly balls and bunts much more interesting.
No
Stand some bats on end and make the batter try to defend them from attacks by the pitcher.

Hmmmm
Haven’t tried it. We have a limited Stone selection up here in southern Canada.
You’re the guy who said "pull the ol’ bobblehead out every once in a while and play with it" but forgot to mention that wasn’t a euphemism.
Thanks for getting me kicked out of the library. Again.

They’re playing the Giants. Sogard is playing second for the A’s.
Still not very happy about that one

He said we'll finish last
which conflicts with Scanman’s flawless analysis that there’s no way the Padres finish last in the division.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to go with Scan on that.
At least MattyV is pretty.

I've been pretty pessimistic
And this may be the booze talking, but I would not be surprised if the Padres exceeded expectations and pulled off a winning record.

Oh man
I hate to admit rewatching Padre wins. If they’re on a losing streak, i sometimes cheat and wait to find out if they won before i watch.

If it's a good game,
I’ll rewatch it. At least the exciting parts.
I’ve rewatched Everth’s grand slam game three times.

That was just Everth's at-bat though.
I’ve rewatched the game in its entirety three times.
I’ve also rewatched Blankzilla’s inside-the-parker game a couple times.
