What’s up with the Padres offense? When they hit the road earlier this month and averaged 7 runs a game on their 10-game swing through Pittsburgh, New York, and Cincinnati, that made a certain amount of sense. But to return home and average 5.4 at Petco Park? Granted, the Mets and Marlins aren’t great teams; [...]

Friday Links (24 Sep 10)
No airplane metaphors today, just links… Home Team Monday (Inside the Padres). From Tom Krasovic: “At some point, the Padres have to hit better than they have over the last few weeks, don’t they?” As Hemingway would say, “Isn’t it pretty to think so?” Hairston Jr.’s season ends with stress fracture (Padres.com).

SDPads1 waxes philosophical about ex-Padres Trevor Hoffman and Jake Peavy. Bonus points for [...]

Padres Farm Report (27 Jun 08)
This whole Allan Dykstra thing has me a bit puzzled. I’m glad that the Padres are investigating whether Dykstra’s pre-existing medical condition might cause further problems, but I wonder why this is becoming an issue during contract negotiations. Maybe before drafting him would have been a better time to resolve any lingering concerns? With the [...]
