After 10 straight L's,I would say the mirage looks much like salt water. Tasty looking but nothing worth pursuing. Perhaps this is the calm before the storm? Dunno but they are on the doormat of making franchise history.
I wonder if any team this late in the season with the kind of record San Diego HAD has ever gone on a 10 game losing streak? I have never seen anything like it.

Would love to see them take their chances with Ubaldo in the playoffs. You surely couldn't dismiss them.
the 1951 Giants and the 1982 Braves. That tid bit was burried DEEP. Rekon it will soon surface as a stat for note. Here is another stat: The Padres have been outscored 55-23 since August 25th. Oh my... Still not giving up on em though, they still have what got em there. Pitching has gotta produce.
