Links? Sure, why not… 1998 (What’s a Picture Worth?). John Weisbarth hangs out with a couple of guys from the best squad in Padres history.

Note that these reports will be on hiatus while I’m driving around California and Oregon. I’ll be at the Beavers game on Monday and the Emeralds game on Tuesday. My schedule is very aggressive, but I’ll try to sneak in some info, pix, and/or videos from the road. If not, they’ll have to wait till [...]

Padres Farm Report (29 May 08)
Before we get started, I’ve got a new article up at Hardball Times about a few stories I’ve been tracking this season. I’ve also been interviewed over at Friar Nation.
