"USA Today's Bob Nightengale tweets about an NL West trade discussion: the Giants are talking to the Padres about third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff, but the Padres want more than Fred Lewis and Kevin Frandsen."

A fun little quiz that I may or may not have been involved in making. Last names only work too, so you don't have to put in the full name.

Many baseball people believe that Red Sox assistant GM Jed Hoyer is the favorite to succeed Kevin Towers as Padres GM. If so, good choice.

Tim Dierkes of MLBTradeRumors.com outlines the Padres' offseason needs and commitments. Includes all returning players' salaries, which is nice to see how much everyone's making.

We could be in the market for an outfielder. I'm not saying it's necessarily Milton. But our experience with him was rather a positive one. It wasn't really a negative one.

PRESENTING: Forgotten Names of Padres Past, a boring look at guys who used to play for us *updated*

Okay so one night I got bored and decided to look back at the rosters of the last few years and see where some of those guys ended up and who they play for now. It was fun for like a couple minutes but then it got real depressing when I saw just how many of those guys are still gritting it out in the minors. It was then that I decided to write up some of those names for you guys to read about, whether you want it or not.

Now I know this fanpost might (will) elicit a lot of why's and who gives a ****'s, and that's all fine and good, but what I really hope happens is for us to just reminisce on all these names of open thread past. Some we cared about, some that we didn't, and some we wish had never entered our collective conscience.

I decided to stay more recent with the names (last 2-3 seasons) since any further back and you just get guys that are retired and doing who knows what. The names included will range anywhere from "who the crap is that" (Jim Brower) to "I have a jersey with his ****ing name on it" (Sean Burroughs).

Jake Peavy allowed three runs and three hits over five innings in his first start in over three months Saturday night as Chicago got a grand slam from Carlos Quentin, scored six times in the eighth and beat the Kansas City Royals 13-3.

Former SDSU QB Kevin O'Connell was cut today, but has too much talent to not end up somewhere else.

Not exactly Chargers news, but I figured some guys on here would be interested.

Can I just go ahead and say that I hate this idea? Cause I do.
