Open Thread, 6/16/2010: Padres vs Diamondbacks

Arizona Diamondbacks at San Diego Padres, Jul 16, 2010 7:05 PM PDT


Back to baseball! Here's the part of the season where everyone is figuring the Padres to fade. Will they fade? Heck I dunno. Mike Adams is hurt. I know Mat Latos is hurt real bad. David Eckstein is back, but who knows if his recent injury was like Rookie of the Year and now his magic injury is healed and he'll go back to being scrappy, umeasurably good instead of like, measurably good.

I will admit, seeing us flop into the break was disheartening, so I'm hoping for a more heartening return. My prediction: Padres: like a billion, Diamondbacks: 3.

GO PADRES!!!

Gotcha. I don't mean to be a hater. I hate being a hater.

And I used to be right at the front of the Durango bandwagon. Then came that game where he misplayed that ball in center and made some other dumb mistake (can’t remember what it was now) and we should have lost the game (I think we somehow came back and won though).

It was then that I got realistic about him… he’s got zero power, not a great hitter, not a great baserunner or stealer, not a great fielder, not really that good at anything except being fast and getting on base. It’s just not enough. He isn’t good enough at enough things to seriously be considered a decent prospect.

We get a run the easy way.

It must be torture to be a D-Backs fan

Decent hitting

but the starting rotation, defense, and bullpen are atrocious

The team could probably not take another swing all night

And this still may continue for quite some time. I appreciate our bullpen very much.

Oh, and the Padres are kicking snake butt.

It had it's moments.

It’s the perfect combination of a James Bond movie and the Matrix with a little bit of “WTF?” thrown in. Actually a lot of “WTF?”.

Personally I didn't find it too difficult to follow.

You just have to pay careful attention through out and don’t leave to use the bathroom.
