Scotty Pods Vs. Pads Game Chat

Los Angeles Dodgers at San Diego Padres, Jul 29, 2010 3:35 PM PDT


Seconds later, this bat was in 1,000 pieces.

Jack Taschner was designated for assignment to create roster room for Scott Podsednik, who starts in center field in his first game as a Dodger.

The Dodgers also announced that Chad Billingsley will start Saturday in San Francisco on three days rest. Billingsley has never had three days rest in between starts, but he did make a start once three days after a relief appearance. On April 8, 2008 in Arizona, three days after two scoreless innings in relief of Hiroki Kuroda, Billingsley lasted just 2 1/3 innings, allowing five runs.

Here are the lineups:

Dodgers      Padres
CF Podsednik 2B J.Hairston
SS Furcal RF Denorfia
RF Ethier
1B Gonzalez      
1B Loney 3B Headley
LF Paul
C Torrealba
3B Carroll          
LF S.Hairston
2B DeWitt CF Gwynn
C Ausmus SS Cabrera
P Padilla   
P Latos

You mean Tebow :-P

5 year deal, terms rumored to be in line with that slot.

He’ll get time as a slot + wildcat QB this year and then more time in following season. I hope they sign D Thomas next tho, he’ll be more important to them in ’10.

I’m really surprised Podsednik even made the major leagues. He was rather horrible at just about every level of minor league, yet continued to get promoted.

He somehow made the Brewers and had a career season his 1st full season in the majors.

His triple slash line is just about the same in the minors as it is in the majors.

by Joey Joe on Jul 29, 2010 3:38 PM PDT reply actions  

Speed will do that

he impressed that spring, made the team and had a lucky season that made his career. Probably a few minor leaguers never got that break that could have done the same thing.

I love Law's take on Happ

Happ is a fifth-starter type with good command and deception but fringy stuff without a real knockout pitch. He’s a particularly bad fit for Houston’s ballpark as a left-handed fly ball pitcher who has had some trouble with right-handed hitters. He’s also coming off a forearm strain that has ruined his 2010 season. Other than that, he’s everything you could ask for in a pitcher.

The cherry is the fruit of many plants of the genus Prunus. It is a fleshy stone fruit. The cherry fruits of commerce are usually obtained from a limited number of species, including especially cultivars of the wild cherry, Prunus avium.

The name ‘cherry’, often as the compound term ‘cherry tree’, may also be applied to many other members of the genus Prunus, or to all members of the genus as a collective term. The fruits of many of these are not cherries, and have other common names, including plum, apricot, peach, and others. The name ‘cherry’ is also frequently used in reference to cherry blossom.

Pitch count not good, gets out of it okay

but the ump squeezing him vs the pitcher was poor timing. Scoring 2 or more vs Latos will be tough but it can be done!

We’ll definitely see Kenley Jansen today, at any rate.
