The San Diego Padres are coming off a bit of a rough season, but with lots of changes happening to teams all over the league, the landscape will be pretty different this coming season, which may open the door for a better campaign for the Padres. Soon it will be time for prepare for this coming season by updating your satellite packages to make sure you get all of your Padres games streamed live. Still, though, Padres fans could use a bit of optimism in the meantime, and hard times are good opportunities to look back on better days – so, with that in mind, here is a brief tribute to the top 10 Padres of all time.
1.)Tony Gwynn – Tony Gwynn clearly has to be considered the best Padre of all time, as one of the game’s best hitters, and a career stalwart. For his career, Gwynn posted a ridiculous .338 average, as well as over 3,000 career hits. A career Padre and 15 time all star, Gwynn should be reflected upon as the icon of the organization.
2.)Trevor Hoffman – I...

MLB owners delay sale of Padres to Moorad
Major League owners are putting off approval of sale of the San Diego Padres to Jeff Moorad.
Commissioner Bud Selig says the MLB ownership committee and executive council unanimously decided to defer action, in his words, ''to get more clarity and technical information.''

Deciphering a Jed Hoyer and Darren Smith Conversation
Yesterday Darren Smith invited Jed Hoyer to appear on XX1090 to discuss an array of topics. As I listened to the former Padres GM answer Darren's questions a concurrent dialogue played in my mind. This dialogue consisted of what Jed Hoyer was really thinking as he presented politically correct answers to his interviewer. Jed's approach, of playing things close to the vest...

Another day, another Daily Friar. Which also means one more day to spring training! Pitchers and catchers report in just under 36 days.
