They are 5-0 vs. Atlanta. If Arizona loses tonight, they will be five back, which is a huge lead in this division. All of the pitchers, Olivo and Nady were impressive today. Astacio has been good, very good when you just consider his starts. Olivo's numbers with the Padres are very good. Hensley's ERA is down to 2.01. <p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-10791">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> The Padres are back at .500.

It worked real well for Chad Cordero, not so much for Ryan Wagner. This kid Devine looks pretty good.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-10783">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> The relatively recent trend of drafting collegiate closers and bringing them up right away is interesting.
