They gave the Padres an "A"
- Offense
+ defense
+ pitching
+ bullpen
They predicted 39-34 for the 2nd half and 2nd place to the Rockies.

Can't argue with that to much. Hopefully we can get a bat by the trade deadline and improve our offense. It would be nice to get another starter for the rotation since we are going to rest Latos a bit. Just hope that we can hold everybody off and win the division.

The Padres do a lot of the little things very well:
Grounded into the fewest double plays in MLB.
One of the best SB/CS ratios.
3rd in MLB in SB/CS ratio against.
2nd fewest errors.
Least unearned runs allowed
Fewest hit batters allowed.
Fewest wild pitches.

I see no reason the Padres should suddenly become average after playing very well over the past 150 games. |

Finally have an owner and fricking GM that understand that pitching and defense and speed wins games and that Petco is not a park for power. This team is a pleasure to watch. I do hope they can get a bat but the Giants are also after a bat and it may cost too much.
