    So what now? Their payroll is going to increase by a whopping $5 million?

    Around the Division: The Offseason of the San Diego Padres - McCovey Chronicles

    The Padres made a plethora of moves this offseason though. They did things that indicated they were rebuilding; they did things that indicated they were going for it. They did things. Here's a look at what they did:

    Acquired:
    Andrew Cashner
    Huston Street
    Yasmani Grandal
    Yonder Alonso
    Brad Boxberger
    Edinson Volquez
    Carlos Quentin
    Mark Kotsay
    lol
    John Baker
    Alex Hinshaw
    lololol
    That might be the best usage of "lol" that I've ever seen.

    I find it hard to take any article that uses "lololol" seriously.

    Who wrote that? A 14 year old blogger?

    The McCovey Chronicles happens to be the only Giants blog that I like. If nothing else, Grant's always gold with his fake transcriptions.

    Anyway, he's laughing at minor inconsequential moves. Well giving Kotsay 7 digits is lol worthy.

    But the lololol should be after Cashner.

    Try being a Dodger fan, where every opposing fan - not just those of division rivals - looks at even your team's minor inconsequential moves as "HAHAHA NED GONNA NED", but if Tampa Bay makes a similar move (for example, signing Fernando Rodney), it's "Hmm, they must know something." Fortunately for you, the Padres generally get the benefit of the doubt because they're sort of the Tampa Bay West, at least to fans of teams outside of the NL West.
