Peavy Nixes Trade, 3-2 Win, and Pads get Gwynn Jr.

Well 2 out of 3 isn't bad!

Great news that Jake is still a Padre and will pitch tonight against Zambrano of the Cubs. That is going to be a great match up. I just hope Zambrano has a melt down and tries to take out one of his own players in the dug out! It was awesome when he went after catcher Michael Barrett. That guy is wound a little too tight!

Gwynn Jr. comes home to SD where he played high school and college ball. I could care less about this move except for one interesting sub-plot. Could Tony Gwynn Sr. be on the move and be the next manager of the Padres? He is Mr. Padre and now that his son plays here on the cheap I would not put it past management to put Sr. in charge. We shall see.

How about that come back win last night? Six in a row all by scoring minimal runs with great pitching. This will be a tough series with the Cubs, beacuse unlike the Giants the Cubs can hit.

Padre fans be patient with Ulta-annoying Cub fans this weekend. For some reason they think they are special fans, with a special team and an even more special stadium, park, no no they call it a field.

Peace
