Padres are being shutdown by worst pitcher in baseball

Saturday May 9, 2009

The San Diego Padres are being shut down by a pitcher that was giving up a .479 BAA and a 14.00 ERA in 3 starts going into the game today.

Brian Moehler may be the worst starting pitcher in baseball and the Padres have managed just two weak singles in 4 innings while striking out 4 times.

The Padres bumbling hitters are making Brian Moehler of the Astros look like Maddux today in Houston.

Padres hitters seem to just be going through the motions at the plate. Have the players simply given up?

It would be an damning indictment of the manager and the coaching staff if they continue to play like this tonight.

Will Bud Black be the next manager fired in the NL West?

In my opinion Black should not make the trip home to San Diego if the team cannot somehow turn this around and win this game tonight and at least 3 more on this road trip.

I have had my say. Now What do you think?
