Know what you're getting.

In 2005 Dewon Brazelton had an impressive spring, but he still did terrible in the season.

Right now we may be seeing the same thing. There's enough evidence in Brazelton's career that points to him being a first-round bust.

I was willing to give him the benefit of the debut about how he was pitching in Tampa, because really would you want to pitch for Tampa?

2 runners on. Lets see if SD can answer.

I still would like to see Sledge get some AB's over Young in Left.

True, who wouldn't want to play in the hell of baseball?

But then again, sucking isn't caused by playing on a bad team, just look at Crawford, Gomes, Huff, etc.

Bases loaded. Lets see if we can get a clutch hit here.

Re: Official San Diego Padres Thread - 2006

There were more than 2 hard hits. Every pitch was up and near the heart of the plate.

That Slider Ojeda hit out, was on a Tee.

who?The hard hit balls that I consider was the almost Grand Slam and Ojeda...nothing else was really crushed to be considered hard hit in my book. But, Braz served up some beef pitches for hits, not taking away from the Rockies hits though, because they did get them with ease.

The sinking liner Roberts missed was hit pretty well also. Not a lot of height, but it was hit on the sweet spot.

What the hell is Zach Day doing? If anyone is watching can you tell me if he's missing with location badly or if he's just getting squeezed.

Looks like Gonzalez wants to stay in the lineup when/if Klesko comes back.

Day is pitching right now as poor as Braz and then we got a lucky break on a over run by Holiday in LF.

He's missing.

Although the pitch Gonzalez hit was a good pitch, Adrian just went down and got it.

Ah, thanks. I hate how gamecast lags.

I am torn. It's tough for me to turn off the Pads, but I really want to watch the Angels/Yankee game.

You notice everything Day is throwing is up in the zone?

Go with the Angels/Yankee game, there's no guarantee that the Padres offense will keep up to score at least a couple of more runs.

On the Rockies broadcast, they just said the first inning was the biggest first inning on the road in Rockies history.

****ing Castilla, pitcher struggling swings first pitch and pops it up.
