Re: Fox Sports article
In the second half, teams should be especially wary of Adrian Gonzalez and force Chase Headley to beat them.
Because they haven’t been already? Because teams are suddenly realizing Adrian is a good player, where they didn’t before?
Luke Gregerson, whose setup role becomes even more important with Adams out, may struggle to maintain his stuff because of how many sliders he throws.
Because it’s not like we don’t have bullpen depth, or that Gregerson has a clean history of health and effectiveness.
Even if the Padres play well, it will be difficult to get comfortable atop the NL West. Three teams — the Giants, Rockies and Dodgers, in that order — are within six games of the lead.

And...
There is no such thing as a trifling pitching injury.
Apparently, Mat Latos has been Ruined FOREVER.
This guy has no idea what’s going on with the Padres.
The other stuff may or may not be good points
A four team race would be more difficult to come out on top of that a 3 team race, etc. But not being aware of the Latos “injury” is ridiculous.
I see his logic
He just went about it the wrong way. He wanted to compare the two teams and say the Braves were better. Instead of focusing entirely on the strengths of that argument (the Braves made moves to get better, the Braves are getting healthier, the Braves’ pitching is almost as good and their hitting is a lot better, etc.) then he went ahead and tried to make the Padres seem not-so-good to make his argument seem even better. In the process, he comes off looking rather ignorant.

Yep. It's not an invalid argument to say that the Braves are better poised for a playoff run.
But the support he used for his argument is atrocious. He argues that the Braves offense is much better than the Padres… but the park adjusted numbers suggest otherwise. The Pads and Braves both have an OPS+ of 100. The only stat he used to support his argument is runs scored. Yeah, the Braves have scored 20 more runs (which isn’t that big of a difference, especially when you consider park factors) but he never mentions the more relevant stat of run differential.
Also:
Clayton Richard (26), Wade LeBlanc (25) and Mat Latos (22) are a concern for the Padres because of their youth and inexperience.
Jair Jerrjens (24), Tommy Hanson (23), and Kris Medlin (24) are not a concern for the Braves… for some reason.

Hacksaw has an interesting point regarding Oswalt
If we could renegotiate his contract a bit, maybe give him one more year, or change things a bit to reduce cost per year… he might be a great addition, even at the cost of a couple prospects.
Oswalt, Latos … as our 1/2… That’s pretty fracking ridiculous. And suddenly our 3/4 becomes Richard/Garland… We don’t offer Correia arbitration, we consider trading Bell in the offseason.. there are ways to do it if we really want.
Glad I don’t have to make the final decision.
Hacksaw suggested adding a big name to a local team, and even ignored that big name player’s own position/desires and assumed that the player would take less money to come play for the local team? YOU’RE KIDDING ME.

not sure what desire you are referencing
The desire I know about is Oswalt wants to leave the Astros AND he wants to play for a contender AND… I assume he would love to pitch in Petco for a team with great defense.
I think he's referring
to Oswalt’s desire to get paid. Plus, I don’t think the player’s union allows guys to renegotiate money already contracted for upon trades. Reference the attempted A-Rod Manny trade.

his position/desire = He’s a 32 year old power pitcher with a violent motion who is watching his buddy (Jake Peavy) fall apart. I don’t know that you’re really going to convince him to leave money on the table at this point. He knows his days are numbered and he needs to make every penny he can now.

Not to mention
His agent would do his damnedest to talk him out of reducing his salary. The players union would also do the same.

Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
Both a blessing in disguise and terrible
I always reference to the soccer transfer system when it comes to moments like these, because player contracts for an old team are torn up and redone when a player joins a new team (think Cristiano Ronaldo) and there are no rentals. Obviously the transfer system in soccer is different and has to be viable for a lot of autonomous leagues (and no binding CBAs), but I sometimes wish there was a similar concept in baseball, especially for Oswalt’s case (because the soccer system would force a new contract negotiation, whereas we have to assume his contract in baseball with negotiations initiated via free and good will).

by Allen J. Kha on Jul 20, 2010 10:13 AM PDT up reply actions
There are big reasons why baseball works different
First, is the unions. The unions are the ones making sure you can’t tear up an agreed to contract. It is not in the best interest of the union to allow players to move from a bad team to a better team. It is in their best interest to make sure everyone gets paid as much as possible. The system you pine for would be hurtful to the players’ pocketbooks.
The second reason is smaller market. There are tons and tons of soccer teams to play for and at least 4 different leagues that are equally as prestigious as major league baseball, plus other leagues that perhaps provide more national glory. This helps keep prices down and allows for players to move more freely. There is also a much larger talent base to work with. From my little exposure to the system it is quite easy to just sell certain player and easily replace most of his production by paying someone his old salary (or possibly less). In baseball, that would be much harder to accomplish most likely to the extent where the wealthiest teams would dominate even more than they already do. Right now the Yankees/Red Sox/Dodgers/etc. are punished when they sign a player that doesn’t perform to his contract. If they could tear up their bad contracts and eat only the sunk transfer fees they’d be far more competitive.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.
Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
I know there are big differences and I only reference it as a basic comparison
Obviously the transfer system in soccer is different and has to be viable for a lot of autonomous leagues (and no binding CBAs), but I sometimes wish there was a similar concept in baseball, especially for Oswalt’s case (because the soccer system would force a new contract negotiation, whereas we have to assume his contract in baseball with negotiations initiated via free and good will).
I absolutely understand what you’re saying, but you’re missing my point. I’m not arguing for its validity, but more moaning that I wish it at times would be the norm. I know that the world football scene is simply different. I’m well aware of how the football transfer system works and how players are contractually obligated solely through their clubs, but if you want to get to the nitty-gritty, you also have to consider academies, player development, youth contacts, the relative lack of free agency (because of player movement through the transfer system and clubs’ purposeful transfers of near-Bosman players [similar to the Adam Dunn situation and sandwich picks]).
Then you’d have to consider the basic and fundamental difference between trading players (baseball) and buying players (soccer) and the role of money in the player movement model (money is used to offset contracts in baseball with players as the main instruments of exchange, whereas money is used as the main instrument of exchange in soccer with players as complimentary pieces to offset valuation differences).
Baseball’s clearly different and the system works as is, but in this case, forced renegotiations would be beneficial in us potentially acquiring Oswalt. No need to instruct me on the soccer system, save the Wonking for my impending moments of stupidity.

zach, I thought I remember there being a case
where someone got an extension for more years (and more total money), but less money per year…
but that might have been a long time ago… and I might just be making that up.
perhaps we can add “incentives” like… if you throw 300 Innings in a year… :) you get $10 million more…
Even if that were possible
I wouldn’t do that for Oswalt. As John pointed out, he’s old and has a violent motion. The last thing the Padres want to do is commit themselves to a guy like that.
Combine that with the insane asking price Houston is throwing out there, and Oswalt isn’t going to San Diego or anywhere else this year.

These stories will continue,
until The San Diego Padres Win The World Series. At which point the new slant will be: The San Padres are the model for success, in the post steroids world.
The Morosi article mentions
that the Braves are looking within their division for a trading partner (Ross-FLA, Willingham-WSH).
What is the likelihood of Atlanta managing to make an intradivision trade? And how are they positioned to compete with the Padres in acquiring the likes of Ross, Willingham, and Hart?
Any word on what the asking prices for those three players are?
And is anyone else chuckling at the thought of possibly having Sneaky Pig and Obliging Pig in the same lineup?
Asking prices on those players
“Too much”, “A lot,” and “More than we can afford.”

yeah
we don’t have much in the farm system, and in 2010 MLB teams are feeling the pinch financially. whereas in the past you’d probably see more deals involving salary relief, nobody has cash to throw around and I think that’s generally driving the (manpower) asking prices that much higher.
It's not that we don't have a lot in the farm system
it’s that we should be really reluctant to part with what we do have, especially for rental players.

Ted Lilly would be a good compromise.
There’s a lot to like about how he’d perform in San Diego, and what it would take to acquire him (not a whole lot).
Personally I kind of like Ricky Nolasco—a young pitcher who can miss bats and has good control. I have no idea what the Marlins would want for him, though.

This is true
However, every game has a lot of people willing to sell their seats. Many season ticket holders buy their seats below cost so that they can sell them at cost as much as possible using StubHub as a facilitator. There is very rarely a baseball game (especially one involving the Padres) that can sell out to the point where you can no longer get these kind of tickets.
I would also suggest getting your tickets as early as you can, but it really doesn’t keep you from buying tickets at cost or just above cost near the day of the game. Even when there is a sellout.

About the foxsports article...
I’m a braves fan and I even think that article was waay too slanted…I think both teams have a great chance to make the playoffs…I hear these sports writers talk about pitching and defense winning championships all of the time, yet for some reason, the team with the best ERA and a solid defense just doesn’t have a chance…That’s BS…This should be a great series…I can’t wait for the matchup on Thursday…Hudson vs. Richard should be outstanding.
It's interesting to compare the seasons of the two teams
The Pads are incredibly consistent: not too many long winning streaks, virtually no long losing streaks, just taking two out of three each and every time. While on the other hand, it seems like the Braves are either winning 9-of-10 or losing 6-of-7.
The Braves are the best home team in the NL, while the Padres are the best road team. It’s too bad our best starter is “injured,” but considering our worst just pitched the previous game, I think all three games could be well-fought. Personally, I’m looking at taking one out of three; anything above that is gravy.
