Now would be a fantastic time for the good Chris Young to make an appearance. Go Padres!

Chris Young is 1-4 with a 4.30 ERA in 10 starts since the All-Star break. Opponents are hitting just .161/.273/.294 against him during that stretch. Wait, do you smell something? I think it’s a disconnect.
Ian Snell, meanwhile, is giving a clinic on second-half [...]

I liked this pitching matchup a lot better in July. Now would be a good time for Chris Young to remember that he’s a dominant big-league pitcher and not some guy who can’t find his command.
In other news, according to the U-T, “there [...]

As noted in Tuesday morning’s comments, the Padres have signed journeyman right-hander Brett Tomko for the stretch run. Tomko, a mainstay in the Padres rotation back in 2002, was a second-round pick of the Cincinnati Reds in 1995. He and Jarrod Washburn were [...]

How sweet would a sweep be? Pretty sweet.
Also, is it just me or is anyone else offended by the fact that the pitcher with the best ERA in the league (Chris Young) has the same number of wins as the pitcher with the [...]

Interesting matchup. Both of these pitchers were acquired for “name brand” pitchers that turned out to be loads of, pardon my French, steaming crap. Much as we marvel that the Padres were able to pry Chris Young and Adrian Gonzalez away from [...]

In case you haven’t voted in the poll, we need to come up with a song from the late-’70s or early-’80s that the Padres can adopt as their theme. Remember how the White Sox used Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’ ” en route [...]

I’m still floored that Joel Pineiro didn’t work out as Boston’s closer. With his track record, who could have seen that coming? Oh, wait; I think the answer is everyone. Naturally he will dominate the Padres.
In less cynical news, Chris Young returns [...]
