I'd be a bit more thrilled if he had homered against someone other than 2 pitchers who, quite frankly, were not that good last season in the minors. Do it early in a game against a Major League pitcher--THAT would show me something. |

Tougher than the pitchers he hit off of. I don't think much should be read into that other than the fact that Abrams has put on about 20 pounds and filled into his frame. Today's home run was definitely wind-aided, but he has developing power that is going to make him a very, very valuable asset here before long. |

Well, he hit a mammoth shot to right off a proven MLB starter....but it was somehow called foul.

Looks like JMI (John Moores), who built the ballpark, should have invested in taller foul poles. Or MLB should invest in umpires who can see. Abrams got a single later in the game and is really illustrating how much he truly belongs. Future star. |

Maybe if the Padres can get rid of a certain 1st baseman, a roster spot may just be available for Abrams. |

Maybe if the Padres can get rid of a certain 1st baseman, a roster spot may just be available for Abrams. CroneZone at 1B, Abrams at 2B, Kim at SS and Machado at 3B. Hosmer can pinch hit for Kim at times (shifting the infield over) and occasionally DH. |

Pham gone. No big loss there. He was looking for way too much money.
