Gristle, basically. To be chewed up and spit out at the major league level. <br /><br />So, I dont necessarily feel they're less than the sum of their parts. They're less than what they think they are. Less than what they say they are. To an unusual degree.Diamondhackshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18269618628044919819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-21420532255993824452009-09-08T07:16:27.562-07:002009-09-08T07:16:27.562-07:00I'm trying to think of a metaphor for somethin...I'm trying to think of a metaphor for something that is less than the sum of it's parts.

Daron Sutton has reconstituted a knuckle curve and will slot in at 5. <br /><br />Paul, <br /><br />break em up ;-)Diamondhackshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18269618628044919819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-67887442477753250002009-09-07T14:27:08.084-07:002009-09-07T14:27:08.084-07:00Isn't Petit our (hate to say it) #4 starter no...Isn't Petit our (hate to say it) #4 starter now? And Buckner is #5?<br />I didn't realize our numbers were that good. Except Haren, who's having a career year offensively and defensively, as well as pitching-wise.Carolinehttp://imbringingdiamondback.mlblogs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-71719421362942491562009-09-07T11:35:12.349-07:002009-09-07T11:35:12.349-07:00The Padres have played well lately if that helps a...The Padres have played well lately if that helps at all.PAULhttp://www.paullebowitz.com/noreply@blogger.com
