Other Commentary

I like all four of these hitters. Just based on numbers, I don’t think they will each get a legit shot to be regulars with the Padres…

When I evaluate pitchers, the first think I look at are hits, strikeouts, and walks vs. innings pitched… Because of these statistical preferences, I am not Cesar Ramos’ biggest fan (517 IP, 570 hits allowed and 5.4 K/9). Now if Cesar has more starts like Wednesday’s, I’ll have to re-think my opinion.
