Since fewer people show up on the weekends, here's a quick recap:
- Trevor Hoffman got his 400th save on Friday. Everybody jumped back on the Trevor bandwagon Saturday morning.
- Padres took three of four in St. Louis, ending their winning streak at six. Record since Kournikova Kiss: 8-2
- The Curse of the Fifth Starter reared it's ugly head yesterday. Before yesterday, the Curse was satisfied with not allowing our fifth starter to get a win. Yesterday, it decided to eat Tim Redding's shoulder. A quote from the article reads, "Tim Redding fought to get the third out of the game, but his shoulder wouldn't let him." That's what you call a fight? Somebody should've told that guy to fake his injury after giving up the first four runs. Note to future fifth starters: If the Curse has decided to take you down in the first inning, don't fight it because it will only go on to eat your shoulder. Free the four man rotation!

I added a poll: Did Redding fake like his arm was hurt?
