for arguing balls and strikes the other day. Here's hoping someone else cares.

How are things working out for him in San Diego? It looks like he is still battling his temper. Any complaints from the pitching staff yet?

I haven't heard much about how he's working with the pitchers. He has been struggling mightily with the bat, putting up a .268/.268/.324 line up in 71 at-bats.

very funny, silly little barrett

I heard Peavy's ERA pitching to Barrett is over 5! Of course Peavy is probably just slumping, but its funny to note.

 

The Padres are 4-13 in games Barrett has started in.

They are 8-3 when he hasn't started.

Anyone got a video of Barrett's blowup?

[98navigator]

He not only argued balls and strikes he threw his helmet and bat... As already mentioned, I also heard, on John Dewan's Stat of The Week show, that the Padres pitchers are significantly worse when they have Barrett behind the plate (instead of Bard) and that the team is under .500 when he plays. Of course, it could be a coincidence but I'm not entirely convinced that it is completely without merit.

[Iceblink]

I hope he does better, but boy, that 0 walks in 71 ABs is rough. What is he doing arguing balls and strikes? He's clearly in a less-than-expert state of mind on the subject.

This really is not Michael Barrett's year...

Bard was suspended for longer just before this.

 

But pile on Barrett, by all means.

Pile on? I don't know how anyone can defend against Barrett having a subpar overall season.
