[cincoseisdos]

what do you guys think of the padres?

 

[Los Angeles]

They kinda remind me of the marlins.

Mostly all young kids, with vets eckstein, peavy and gonzales leading the way.

They're just playing hard small ball or big ball, they're winning games.

 

[sinser13]

^ agree, they also play well on the road.

[h2]Cory Wade placed on 15-day DL, Scott Elbert recalled from Chattanooga[/h2]
By Tony Jackson on April 18, 2009 10:36 AM | Permalink | Comments (1) | ShareThis

It's a recurrence of the same shoulder issue he dealt with last season and in spring training, nothing major. He says it went away completely for a while, but it flared up again after his most recent outing last Saturday night at Arizona, and it has been so crazy this week that no one seemed to have noticed that he hadn't pitched since then. Cory said it just kept getting worse after that, but that he is optimistic that a little rest will be sufficient to get rid of the issue. The move is backdated to Sunday, which means he is eligible to return on April 27 and stands a good chance of doing so. He'll go to Camelback Ranch on Monday, when the team leaves for Houston, and pitch in a couple of extended spring training games there to get himself right.
``We can't be one man short in the bullpen,'' Wade said. ``Those guys have been working hard down there. We're just doing what is best for the team.''
Scott Elbert had made two starts at Double-A Chattanooga totaling eight innings, so it would seem logical that he'll go to the pen for the big club, which now has three lefties down there. Remember in spring training when everyone was fretting over the fact that they only had one? Elbert gave up four runs (three earned) on seven hits with four walks and nine strikeouts and held opposing hitters to a .226 average for the Lookouts.
Oh, and Hiroki Kuroda did fine playing catch this morning, about 30 throws. He told some Japanese reporters he hopes to throw off a mound tomorrow, but I haven't confirmed that with Stan Conte yet.

Also, here is today's lineup, a bit of a skeleton crew with Furcal, Martin and Blake all sitting:
2B Hudson
RF Ethier
LF Ramirez
1B Loney
CF Kemp
3B DeWitt
C Ausmus
SS Castro
RH Billingsley
Ethier is probably the happiest man in LA today

 

[Los Angeles]

As expected wade going on the DL, I'm glad these injuries are happening early in the season. (Kuroda, wade, schmidt, mien, etc)

I'm kind of surprised they called up another lefty with having Kuo & Ohman, maybe we can expect Kuo to rest a bit and get his control issues sortedout?

As far as the lineup, I'm liking it. Joe Torre is still tinkering around with it, he's willing to move everyone BUT manny hitting third.

 

[jrdnkiks213]

Heard the first couple of innings over the radio but tuned in at the start of the 7th inning. Damn, this team is built in a way that it can go on a scoringrun in one inning and salvage the game. Good stuff.


Let's see how Ethier fares in front of Manny today.


Kemp with the streak

Any info on Manny's walk up song anyone? - I still haven't found anything.

 

[p mac one]

If Ethier has a big day today, you gotta think Joe will seriously consider batting him 3rd.

 

[Los Angeles]

good point pmac.

i'd like to see how ausmus / castro / dewitt do as well.

its imperative to give these guys enough time on the field to keep players like martin / furcal / blake / etc fresh.

and jrdnkiks ill ask my gf, i think she knows.

but i think him batting 3rd would get more pitches than he does in the 2 hole

 

[Los Angeles]

[Los Angeles]

yeah the only reason for the change is because FOX picked up the game. the notice wasnt any longer than 24-48hrs, which sucks for people who bought tickets offwebsites beforehand and already fixed their schedules accordingly to the 7P game.

 

[Los Angeles]

if runners are on base, torre has to put a play for them to run with cook being a sinker ball pitcher.

 

[Los Angeles]

its gone btchhhhhhhh

 

[mr jordan04]

About time!!!!
