With southpaw Wandy Rodriguez on the mound, Justin Huber likely will make his Padres debut, getting the start in left field. Nathan at Oz MLB Players profiles the Melbourne native, while Jeff at Royally Speaking is sorry to see Huber leave Kansas City and thinks the youngster was mishandled.

Picking up where last year's version left off, the Ducksnorts 2008 Baseball Annual provides in-depth analysis of and commentary on the San Diego Padres. Get your copy today.

      Classic Philly today, local paper asks this morning if the team is going to be able to get beyond its bad start(0-1) watching some of the game, they get booed the whole time…..my favorite is the little kid who sounds like he’s 10 on the MLB Extra Innings feed, he’s just giving Victorino the business all game

      Geoff, Didi, and I are going to the game tomorrow. I have one more ticket. First person to e-mail me (lance@richardsonsteelinc.com) gets the ticket. My seats are field level, section 114.

      We’ll be meeting up at Lou & Mickeys around 11:15 tomorrow.

      Man, what an ugly start to the game, from both sides. That rundown wasn’t exactly perfect, the lazy throw by Kouz and then Blum butchering a high chopper.

      Ugh, looks like it’s going to be one of those games. I was hoping the Padres “Crappy Pitching Petco Effect” wouldn’t happen this year — the worse the opposing pitcher is at Petco, the worse the offense does.

      So on the subject of the third-base coaching box: did they change it today, from last night? Did they get permission from the league? Was it in response to the Bowa incident?

      There was so much left unsaid by Matt and Mud, so I’m assuming they haven’t talked to anybody within the organization about it yet.

      That didn’t look like that bad of a pitch by Rodriguez, did it? Down and outside, it certainly wasn’t grooved right down the middle like Maddux’s pitches to Blum and Wigginton.

      Nice followup AB by Hairston. Greene and Barrett back to their hacktastic ways (can’t argue with the results for Khalil though).

      I wasn’t suggesting that Maddux pitch any more; just send him up to the plate to bunt - to avoid burning a pinch hitter.

      Good thing that Giles picked up the run.

      P-Mac had plenty of time to get in position for a stronger throw. Bekman may still have scored, but it would have been close had P-Mac been in better position.

      Good thing the Padres are playing the Astros because they are playing terrible tonight. I usually don’t care if the opponent steals a base but it actually mattered there. I wonder if there should be an asterisk for stolen bases against the Padres?

      The Toon has a strong arm, good thing it’s not that accurate. Barrett’s actually having a good game tonight, they didn’t happen too much last year. The Padres were 11-20 in games he started (and lost 14 of his first 19 starts). Could they be 1-0 in his starts this season?

      Isn’t baseball-reference.com the coolest?

      94: It counts as a steal unless it is a case of “defensive indifference.” Many official scorekeepers screw this up, assuming that not drawing a throw is evidence of indifference. If the first baseman was holding the runner, however, the defense was hardly indifferent.

      Two quick outs by Hoffman.

      Taxes…

      I know the gun only said 83 but Trevor’s fastball really looks different to me. It seems like it’s faster than that.

      104: I hit in a 85 MPH batting cage all the time. He’s really throwing 83.

      100.

      Don’t start talking like that Cubs fan guy that told us we were loosing because Michael Barrett is cursed and no team with him will ever win.

      I agree, this is probably his best game as a padre.

      I think Grant is right, Trevor’s fastball does look a little faster then last season — the mlb.com Gamecast is clocking him at 89 mph out of his hand, I think he was usually around 86-87 last season.

      Too bad Meredith’s inattentiveness is going to cost Maddux career win 348.

      104.

      So do I. The 85 plus at Stadium Golf and it looks faster than that to me.

      Or maybe not.

      That’s what you get for walking Jose Cruz.

      Don’t get me wrong. I like Trevor. But I think he’s seen his better days.

      Maybe back to back isn’t ideal for Hoffman.

      Again, how can you walk Jose Cruz with the bases empty and two outs? That’s three bad outings out of four. Is Trevor done?

      That was craptastic.

      But today is almost the 10 year anniversary of Steve Finley’s bottom of the ninth grand slam against the DBacks. It’s not over…

      111: The Stadium Golf cages overstate the velocity. I hit at a facility that doesn’t blow sunshine up its customers’ butts. Let’s go hit sometime, though. Lemme know when you’re up for a couple hours of cage time.

      Berkman just blew it open.

      Cue all the “Trevor is done” guys prepping their SDUT emails and 1090/1360 sports radio calls for tomorrow.
