The San Diego Padres just signed James Shields, so no can they win the west and what does it mean for the rest of the division?
The Padres now have an abundance of quality starting pitching and it looks like this team is gearing up to win now.
Not only has the Pitching improved, but this team has also improved offensively as well and Bud Black is an excellent coach.. Andy feels that they can contend for the West Title and possibly flirt with 90 wins.
Scott states it will be interesting to see what the Win total for the Padres comes out as. What do you feel it will be?
Andy wants to see how the new offense fairs in this huge pitchers park. Andy also warns about the Buzz that surrounded the Blue jays last year and they did very little. Could that happen here.
Steve feels that the Padres don't need more pitching and feels that many will bet them over the win total but they will lose. He feels it is now bad chemistry on the team. Steve loves Unders in win totals
Scott feels they do need to shore up the infield a bit and have an issue or two in the outfield.
Colorado is a mess and Arizona needs more pitching so at the very least Scott feels that San Diego will be a 3rd place team in the division.
