Wait, do you smell something? No, not that; I think it’s links…
Club and closer still need each other, but can they mend the fences? (U-T). It seems that Trevor Hoffman and his agents may have overplayed their position. I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see Hoffy back with the Padres in 2009. (Melvin Nieves [...]

Wake up and play ball.
In case you missed it, the Padres traded left-hander Randy Wolf to Houston for right-hander Chad “I’m Not Going to Pay a Lot for This Pitcher” Reineke. Pretty exciting stuff, eh? Paul DePodesta gives us the scoop…

There was a rumor that Sunday’s game might be canceled due to extreme apathy. The truth is, it would have been, but nobody could be bothered to do the canceling.

One thing I find interesting about this season is how the local media has chosen to portray the Padres when things haven’t gone well. There’s almost an “I told you so” glee in descriptions of the team’s struggles. [...]

I still don’t have a photo of Estes, but I do have one of Volquez, whom I saw pitch against the Portland Beavers last summer in Oklahoma City on my way to Cooperstown. If I’d known he’d be [...]

I would point out that the Reds have gotten off to a poor start and are pulling up the rear in their division, looking up even at the lowly Pittsburgh Pirates, but the truth is, I’d kill to [...]
We are all products of our environment. The recent environment in San Diego baseball has been one of winning. Since moving downtown for the 2004 season, the Padres have seen unprecedented on-field success. For the first time in franchise history they’ve enjoyed four straight winning seasons. In 2005 and 2006, they reached the post-season in [...]
September 18, 1969, San Diego: Padres 7, Reds 1 (box score)
Here’s the danger of small sample sizes, as illustrated by Jose Arcia. We’ve established that the guy couldn’t hit a lick, and yet, over a four-game period in mid-September, he went 9-for-18 with four doubles. In this one, Arcia collected four hits en route to [...]
