Yes exactly lucky, when/if you play playoff contenders there not going to put a 0 spot on Tomko when/if he pitches, also when/if you play contenders there teams closers wont blow it in 9th like ours did, so basically dont expect these lucky wins when/if you play any contender.

I wasn't talking smak if thats what you think, I was just making a point whether or not you guys agree with me or not thats another story.

Cain pitched a beauty and once again got no run support. Tomko has had our number tis year for some odd reason. There was that non-fan interference call but that didn't really factor in the game. Good time for Messenger to blow up. I will not comment on the classless one since I have already called him out repeatedly. 19 shutouts is awesome and shows what kind of staff this team has. I think Cain is going to work really hard on his hitting since no one else will get runs for him.

Peavy goes over 7 innings for the first time this year!

But, given the rest of your post, I'm assuming I was right in my last post in this thread.

When/if the Padres play in the playoffs Tomko will not be starting...or even on the roster for that matter.

Really? Closers never blow games in the playoffs?

Tell that to Mariano Rivera.

There's a lot of luck involved in the playoffs, actually.

It's part of the game.

Just ask Steve Bartman.

That's not the impression I get when you come running in here crying that the Padres "Didn't win shit, they got lucky "

Another win for Cy Peavy.

Funny thing is when you look at this list, there are at least 7 potential play-off teams thgat we shut out, so i am feeling pretty confident we could do it in the play-offs too. Oh by the way the SF Gnats are not one of the seven.

Peavy, CY, Maddux in a short series............and this offense giving them some run support..........and we can play with just about anyone......finally Kouz is moved up in the order, I hope he stays there even when MB comes back ( if he comes back )

Why isn't Tomko-Weaver going to be on the playoff roster........is it a time with the club issue ??

Because they didn't get him till after September 1st.

[padrefanforever]

I figured it was a time with the team issue.........but wasn't sure the exacts......are there any loopholes we might see used for him to be on the roster ? Why would he agree to come here, get paid near nothing from us, and not have a chance to pitch in the post season ?
