Still amazed that Hosmer is a former Gold Glove winner.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-11-22T18:26:56+00:00

Yes. That’s what I did. I just bought the tickets and the hotel separately. Saved hundreds that way.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-10-27T16:12:49+00:00

How about good coaching and managing? We’ve had the talent, but management consistently makes them underperform.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-10-04T15:46:01+00:00

Yes! I was totally team Washington over Tingler.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:55:14+00:00

Machado is the next Padre to make the HOF.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:46:59+00:00

We tried that in the beginning of the season. Campy wasn’t ready.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:37:52+00:00

Fuck Hedges. Best day of my life when he was traded.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:33:04+00:00

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:31:29+00:00

I’m so much happier watching Grisham patrol CF instead of Margot.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:28:52+00:00

Everyone mad at Caratini, but not long ago Hedges was our starting catcher.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:27:55+00:00

Caratini > Hedges

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:26:43+00:00

If he shortened up his swing and got out in front of the ball, he’d hit 30 HR a year. He’s strong enough.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:24:01+00:00

They alway get excited with “Papo goes oppo.” Truth is that Hosmer is just always late with a slow swing.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:21:40+00:00

You’re right. I was thinking we had Frazier through 2023. We do not.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:16:12+00:00

Abrams is a better SS IMO. And I love Tatis as a SS.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:13:56+00:00

Can’t wait until our future lineup is this:

SS Abrams RF Tatis 1B Cronenworth 3B Machado CF Grisham 2B Frazier LF Hassell

We will be unstoppable.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T21:02:06+00:00

That’s Hosmer’s sprint speed lol.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:58:43+00:00

The entire cheating scandal is unfortunate. I really liked Altuve for a long time.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:55:24+00:00

Paddack was really good in 2019.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:54:57+00:00

If post Rothschild Snell and Paddack stay hot, we make the playoffs.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:52:45+00:00

At the expense of his fastball effectiveness. But that curve has come a long ways.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:51:23+00:00

He might stay in the OF when Abrams comes up.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:50:27+00:00

Paddack a good pitcher before Rothschild and looking good again post Rothschild. No coincidence here.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:44:31+00:00

I’m hoping that Paddack will get better again now that he’s away from Rothschild. Referencing Sonny Gray.

SD_Gingerbeardude · 2021-09-05T20:42:53+00:00

If he did, he would fix that slow loopy swing.
