Padres Sign Latos, Beat Bucs

It’s not often that a 9-0 victory takes a backseat to a draft signing. Then again, it’s not often that the Padres sign a guy like Matt Latos. In case you missed it, the Pads and Latos agreed to terms late Wednesday evening. Jim Callis at BA has the bonus at $1.25 million, well off [...]

Friday Links (25 May 07)

Tough loss on Thursday (recap | boxscore), but in light of Wednesday’s gift, I can’t complain too much. Besides, the Padres won another series and it’s hard not to like that. To the links… Greene’s play just a reaction (Padres.com). Coaches and teammates gush over Khalil Greene‘s spectacular spinning play on Tuesday night to rob [...]

Padres Take Round One Against Rivals

Real-world stuff kept me from watching all but a few innings of this weekend’s heated series against our archrivals in Seattle, but it’s good that the Padres were able to take two out of three. No matter what else happens this season, if we can beat the Mariners, it will have been a success. Right. [...]

Monthly Roundtable: April 2007

Instead of the usual end-of-month statistical spew that I’ve been known to present in the past, I decided to try something different this year. I’ve asked several Padres bloggers to offer their thoughts on the team. Participants this month include Anthony Trifiletti (Friar Watch), Peter Friberg (various; currently covering prospects here at Ducksnorts under the [...]

How Virtuous Is Patience?

I needed a break from the Padres, so I trekked up to Elsinore to watch the Storm instead on Tuesday. I saw a good game, but it sounds like I missed an even better one (recap | box score). Although it’s hard to offer meaningful commentary on a game I didn’t see, I’m glad to [...]

Seventeen Innings of Solitude

Another gut-wrenching loss on Sunday (recap | box score). For the third time in five starts, David Wells didn’t look sharp at all. His final line wasn’t horrible; then again, “wasn’t horrible” is hardly the standard by which starters on a contending team should be measured. To their credit, the Padres picked up Wells and [...]
