So, do we want to try and wipe the smug grin off the Padres and their fans this series? Or are we more intent on continuing our headlong pick of the bestest draft pick possible in 2011? A difficult dilemma. Certainly. for tomorrow, I hope we murder San Diego, in honor of Luis Gonzalez: and if that's literally murder, with Baxter operating the wood-chipper... Well, it'd make for an interesting day at the old ballpark, let's just say. Tonight, however, I get the night entirely off, as I rest and gird my loins [figuratively - no actual loins will be girded] for SnakePitFestapalooza tomorrow.
Word is, still no Mark Reynolds today, but he is feeling better and might be in there tomorrow. Damn straight, or I will not be responsible for the behavior of my fellow attendees. Let's just say, we'll be checking whether pitchforks are on the list of items allowed into Chase. For this evening, however: get well, Mark. It's the return of Garland, who takes on the Diamondbacks for the fourth time already this year. He's 1-1, having allowed three ER in 15 innings - but seven unearned runs. He got the win last time, spinning six innings of one-run ball in Petco.
He faces Dan Hudson, who was great in his first start for Arizona, cruising through eight innings of a laugher against the Mets. Indeed, all our new starting pitchers have done pretty well - between them, Hudson, Barry Enright and Joe Saunders have a collective ERA of 2.33 over ten starts. Just a shame we were already 15 games back before any of them showed up. But it's no longer about 2010, as far as I'm concerned - building for 2011, and in the case of our young players, getting experience now that will hopefully hold them in good stead for future campaigns.
That said, please feel free to kick Padres ass this evening. Especially that classless punk, Everth Cabrera, whom Reynolds still owes a face of cleats. 'Charmer on the recap, while I watch... Hmm, I'm thinking Harry Brown and the 1954 BBC TV version of 1984. Have fun, folks.

I see it
now. Dos dias ago. Wonder why I didn’t see it before. Huh. I can get it done before tonight’s game is over – is that soon enough? Only reason I “can’t” do it now is because my comp’s not on. If you’re not going to be around, I can go do it.
Did
you see my tweet about the McNabb prank?

Need to call upon the Star Wars geeks again – is there any Star Wars wherein Yoda says “yum!”? Mom’s said it was in ET, so she bet my bro a dollar. No one can find it in ET, and now she’s thinking it was Yoda. plz advise
He says "Mmmmm" when he's eating his porridge in ESB (V)

Only 2/2? Psssh

Mr. Science Boy
Why would he?
His career planner is paying him for the privilege of being his career planner.

In that case,
keep the career planner. Just don’t take his advice.

$64 for LaRoche ($35 in 4 days)

Not that in favor of LaRoche

I only threw him in there because he was on the recently-expired list. Ryan Braun is also open, but the only reason I’d get his is to say something like “always living in Upton’s shadow” or something.

I am actively pitching the name “Solid Snake” for Hudson because it’s an awesome nickname and will spawn endless photoshops in the future.
Plus, it has staying power to be a legit nickname ‘cause it’s funny.

Haren's best years
are probably behind him now, unless he makes a radical change in his delivery. His prime fastball has declined incrementally but steadily that last two years, and that velocity doesn’t come back.

Well, he has so far
Gone longer into games and given up fewer runs.

Gets traded to another team, first game he leaves after being hit by a liner and the second he pitches a 2 run complete game and takes a loss. It’s like he never left the Diamondbacks.

Well, now I am a cook.
But I got fired from being a CNA for yelling at someone that broke my glasses. I didn’t cuss, I voiced my displeasure at the resident for throwing my glasses and breaking them.
Nice strikeout!
That's terrible that your glasses got broke
As someone who also wears glasses, I’d be pissed off too and would most likely voice my displeasure if it happened to me.
So you’re a cook…where at?

I know that intersection. When I first lived down there, I lived off Pusch Wilderness Drive, then later on in my last year there, I lived off Oracle and River, back in behind the bowling alley
