You've got to be kidding? They'll probably lose. But it certainly won't be from a lack of talent.
What will it be from?

Ha, I just googled what it would be in Spanish, and it says GD (not BD). I have years of Spanish experience, but that has never come up.
Touche, I used the google translator

Is this just a mistake or another acronym that I don't understand?
el bateador designado, que? no habla espanol ?
Let's see what happens next year (Jackon vs Hudson) but my point was, this trade is dead and done, and has nothing to do with Rick Hahn, let's stick with the subject, that's all.

Care to supply a name suggestion so that we can compare actual stats?
(to be more specific...it's not just batting average and HR that count. You loved Franco's 1994 season...but he also put up a .400+ OBP that season and as such a >.900 OPS). Pena only hit .227 in 2009, but he put up a .893 OPS because he took 87 walks and hit 39 HR. This season some of those HR's stayed in the ballpark, and his total OPS plummeted.
In other words, gotta look on OBP, not so much on AVG, I still don't want anything to do with Pena unless its for really cheap.

I hope the Padres win today. So far they are losing, but I would love to see a three way tie between Atlanta, SF and SD and those teams battling it out.

Supposedly KW went on a rant about Jenks before the game today. If what I've heard he said is actually true, Jenks has played his last game in a Sox jersey.
Yup, he pretty much said Jenks was a disappointment on many levels this year.
