Padre Team: I hardy recognize ye.
Well, there have certainly been a great deal of changes to the Padre ball club, some good, some head scratchers (Lorretta). But for a team like the Pads, these aggressive off season moves are good.We have new blood at the top with Sandy and now see new blood on the field. Oh, sorry Cameron, I should say new butts on the bench.
There a many Padres bloggers breaking it all down for fans, so I won't bother, except to say (now that the Chargers are done), that I feel some excitement about the possibilities for 2006.
As we get closer to spring training I start warming up the Padre fan snark machine.
Hope your holidays are good and safe.
Padre Mike
