MLB.com: Dodgers blanked by Padres Faced with the possibility that the Dodgers really can’t win on the road, or that Monday night’s 4-0 loss to the last-place Padres at PETCO Park was merely a one-day letdown after a perfect homestand, manager Joe Torre chose the latter.
“I reminded them before the game we might not have the same emotion, we won’t have the home fans, plus we just played the team we were chasing and ran them down,” Torre said. “It’s a natural reaction.”
MLB.com: D-backs can’t solve Giants ace [Tim Lincecum] was masterful through 8 1/3 innings as the Giants stymied the D-backs, 6-2, Monday night at AT&T Park. The loss was the 11th in the last 14 games for the D-backs.

Looks like the little Giant would/should be a unanimous winner if the voting were held today.
Makes ChadBradfordWannabe look pretty good in retrosepect, doesn't it?
#41 - New York Yankees - P Joba Chamberlain
This Sidney Ponson wannabe doesn’t have Ponson’s powerful mechanics (not this year, I’m talking years past). I just don’t like him nearly enough for all the buzz he gets. I like athletes, and if he turns out like Ponson, he will weigh 280 in few years. No thank you.
Grade: C
