OT: Padres new outfield

[Fred]

Hey Phil, I hope that Pablo signing is worth it. Now that he's got a big contract there's no reason for him to trim down and stay in prime playing shape. Middlebrooks may look like a good alternative by the time Pablo reports for spring training. He's probably going to eat his share of his new contract in the off season. Actually, I like Sandoval. I hope he does well for the Sox.

Not real crazy about Kung Fu Panda, but I think he will play a ton harder than Middlebrooks. Never cared for him and think the Sox gave him every chance. Just not talented enough.

I don't get the Sandoval thing. .280 hitter with 12-14-16 HR and 79 or fewer RBI the past three years.
