Open Thread, 3/18: Padres vs. White Sox

by Drama on Mar 18, 2008 1:53 PM PDT Comment 45 comments

The Padres face the White Sox today. Wil Ledezma gets the start against John Danks.

It's 70 degrees at Tucson Electric Park...we should all be there catching some rays and enjoying some ice cold adult beverages.

Question: Will we get to see Scott Linebrink today in his spiffy new White Sox uniform and wads of cash falling out of his pockets? Stay tuned...

Andy Masur and The Colonel have the call on XX Sports Radio...Uncle Teddy is "on assignment" today. On assignment?? What the hell does that mean?

You beat me to it

For those of us trophy husbands out there, the game is on XM 178.

Come on, Greeney.

Hit your double.

Good AB by Khalil

even going down swinging. He burned a bunch of pitches there. Would have liked to see him do something more productive, but good AB regardless.

Runners on 2nd and 3rd....

...only one out...Khalil strikes out. Ugh.

DAMMIT KHALIL!!! SHAKE YOURSELF!!!!

Between your post and Phantom's.

GET A ROOM, PHANTOM!!!!!

Barrett!

2-run double!

by Phantom on Mar 18, 2008 1:16 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs

On an 0-2

pitch no less.

Nice to see Barrett producing.

by sacpadre on Mar 18, 2008 1:17 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Barrett

We have a BAD-ASS 1-2 combo at catcher.

by Drama on Mar 18, 2008 1:17 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs

Lets hope so

I expect Barrett to really bounce-back this season.

by Phantom on Mar 18, 2008 1:19 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Expect

Expect is the perfect word. I don't believe for one second that he just forgot how to hit.

Fick

Think we can talk Fick into driving Estes to Portland?

by Drama on Mar 18, 2008 1:20 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs

Why drive

When you can have P-Keg get out and push?

by Phantom on Mar 18, 2008 1:24 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

P-Keg is out of options.

He ain't going to Portland...and I hope he ain't going to San Diego.

by Drama on Mar 18, 2008 1:26 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

He can accept

an assignment in San Diego though, right? I doubt there's a huge demand out there for an extra DH guy.

by Phantom on Mar 18, 2008 1:27 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

D'oh

That should say Portland. Sorry to scare you, Drama.

by Phantom on Mar 18, 2008 1:28 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

I think so.

You really don't think some other club would grab him thinking he's the next Jack Cust?

by Drama on Mar 18, 2008 1:29 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

I don't think

he's got either the OBP or the power that Cust did. Dude could play LF in a place like Cincy or Philly, but not much else.

by Phantom on Mar 18, 2008 1:35 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Whoa

Who taught Wil Ledezma about the strike zone?

Weird.
