Padres....nine in a row baby

So my Padres just won nine in a row. With a suicide squeeze thrown in! Lovely. And Peavy exercised his no-trade rights. I think it was a good thing all around. The Padres don't really have to trade Peavy. There's no real need except payroll which doesn't make a whole lot of sense, really. New ownership is in town. I think Moores might need the money but in the end he'll still be a millionare anyway...what's another five!(right? anyone?)

Plus, for Jake, the ChiSox are quite possibly the most terribly run team in the majors. Ozzie Guillen for fucks sake. Scott Podsednick. For fucks sake. In the AL no less. In a home run park. Good choice. Jake ball needs to go to a hitter ugly park and dominate.

About the streak....pitching pitching pitching!! In nine games (one of which went 16 innings) the Padres allowed a total of 18 runs. 1 shutout, four one run games, two two run games. And only one game over the magical four run barrier that DePo keeps talking about. And that one game was the 16 inning game. That's what the streak was about. Pitching.
