Padres (8-10) @ D’backs (13-4) Randy Wolf vs Randy Johnson 1:10 p.m. PT Channel 4SD AM 1090, FM 105.7, XM 189 MLB, B-R I love Greg Maddux‘s attitude.

IGD: Padres @ Diamondbacks (19 Apr 08)
Padres (8-9) vs D’backs (12-4) Chris Young vs Edgar Gonzalez 5:10 p.m. PT Channel 4SD AM 1090, FM 105.7, XM 183 MLB, B-R The Padres need to recall Adrian Gonzalez‘s older brother from Portland and stick him in the lineup for this one. How cool would it be to see two different sets of namesakes [...]
None More Epic
I’m late to the party — blame a lack of sleep and previously scheduled interview (Jim returned the favor and interviewed me at AZ Snakepit) — but here are some observations from Thursday’s epic 22-inning battle with the Rockies: Jake Peavy dominated. Yeah, the game went another 14 innings after Peavy departed, but he was [...]

Series Preview: Jim McLennan Talks Diamondbacks
Yeah, it’s Friday, but we’ve got something way cooler than links. We’ve got Jim McLennan, of AZ Snakepit fame, with us, and he’s going to give us the dirt on this year’s Diamondbacks. Ducksnorts: I picked Arizona to win the NL West in 2007 on the strength of its good young position players. The team [...]
Padres Farm Report (18 Apr 08)
Before we get to the farm report, that was an epic game on Thursday night/Friday morning. Stinks that the Padres came out on the losing end, but how fun is 22 innings? I’m not going to recap it, but if you want some sense of how it played out, read the IGD. Folks delivered big [...]

Life’s Sweetest Reward
The season is extremely young, and we shouldn’t place too much faith into three weeks of stats, but have you noticed that the Padres are beating their Pythagorean? Yeah, they’ve scored 49 runs and allowed 57, which is more indicative of a 6-9 record than the Pads’ actual 8-7 mark. Again, it’s early and we [...]
