Marcus Giles Is Coming to Town

Series Preview: Padres vs Dodgers

The team just up I-5 from San Diego is in first place, and I’m starting to have some concerns. Aside from the fact that the Dodgers easily have the best run differential in the NL West (+67, well ahead of second-place Arizona’s +25), what bothers me is that each time a hole opens, they are [...]
