8 HR's in 4 days ? Move'um in........it's not quite BP yet

Quit pretending like this is the norm

[HollywoodLeo]

In case you didn't know.......these were the moves made today

Moves made today :
Germano DFA'd
Thatcher opt'd to AAA Portland
C - Colt Morton giving 2nd stint with Padres this year
RHP Jared Wells(1-1, 5.85 ERA)
RHP Mike Adams(3-1, 5.52 ERA)
RHP Josh Banks(1-1, 6.66 ERA) promoted from AAA

Still no Chase?

NOPE

[padrefanforever]

Quit pretending like this is the norm

Sorry 12 HR's in 4 games

[padrefanforever]

So do the Padres continue the norm of hitting great pitching, while turning below avg pitchers into CY ? Edinson is a great arm....so in theory we should hit him ??

[HollywoodLeo]

Sorry 12 HR's in 4 games

Good point. Home runs are always flying out of PetCo at that rate.

[padrefanforever]

Yah.....they do when legit power hitters square up the ball.......

funny how that works isn't it

[HollywoodLeo]

So you're saying the Padres have a squad of legit power hitters?

When did this happen?

[padrefanforever]

I never said anything about any team.....AGon, Greene, Griffey Jr, Pujols to name a few are all legit HR power hitters

Nice try though

[HollywoodLeo]

Yet Adrian and Khalil's home/away splits still remain drastically different, even with their 4 combined HRs at PetCo the past two days.

[padrefanforever]

Greene is the model of consistency.......I can see why you use him as an example.......AGon very well might change his career splits in his 3rd big league season......he's having very little problem jerking the ball out of Petco

[padrefanforever]

AGon also have far fewer AB's at home this year......why didn't you mention that.....I think per AB AGon is only 2 HR's off pace in his splits

Greene also has fewer AB's

Funny how things can get skew'd isn't it

[HollywoodLeo]

You're right, I really didn't pay attention to their home ABs this year as compared to road ABs.

I was too busy focusing on the fact that their trends were continuing.

Adrian

year	home	away
2006	10	14
2007	10	20
2008	4	9
Total	24	43

Khalil

year	home	away
2004	2	13
2005	6	9
2006	6	9
2007	12	15
2008	3	2
Total	29	48

After his 2 HR game last night, at least Khalil is bucking the trend.

[HollywoodLeo]

Kouz is pulling an odd Chris Young flip flop, though

Kouzmanoff

year	home	away
2007	5	13
2008	4	1
Total	9	14

[HollywoodLeo]

AGon also have far fewer AB's at home this year......why didn't you mention that.....I think per AB AGon is only 2 HR's off pace in his splits

Home: 1 HR every 23 PAs (20.5 for ABs)
Away: 1 HR every 13.11 PAs (12.44 for ABs)

(That's this year, I'll look up career numbers later)
