re: tanking. I think perhaps, the Padres really should try this out. The whole concept of trying to win isn’t working out this season. It’ll be like George Costanza trying the anti-George move. Look at the Cardinals series, the Padres tried and tried to score as many runs as they’d had for the whole season and still lose.
Maybe, the hitters should all swing at the first pitches trying to create outs. That may be the ticket. Run into a few pitches for hits and let all the pitchers really pitch to contact, just groove every kind of pitch down the middle, could get lucky and make outs.
57: ah. Yeah, sarcasm doesn’t work well in print, does it? You are just too good.
