It's pretty sad when people make fun of what might be the nicest ballpark in the country.....while it doesn't have the history of a Fenway, it's one helluva lot nicer to watch a game in....that's for sure......surrounding area is filled with things to do before and after....you can take a train, trolley, drive, pedicab, cab or walk.....not too bad

I forgot that the Padres have Grady Fuson and DePodesta in the same front office. Good thing DePodesta wasn't hired to be the GM because otherwise Fuson might off himself.

Wait, is DePodesta still working for the Padres? Their website currently lists Ken Bracey as the Special Assistant to the General Manager.

Yes....he's a super secret weapon, not advertized in a public forum

I think DePodesta was a good addition to the front office and from hearing his interviews on XX, he sounds like a bright guy who could do the GM job somewhere down the road.

Oh, the ****in irony. And please, do keep Paulie around for me. I love a guy who likens an ace pitcher to 1 million dollars, while a package of largely unproven players are worth 20 million dollars.

I thought Kevin Towers made those moves?
