The Padres suck....badly. Like really really badly. Buck will try to suggest they don't, but they're unquestionably the 2nd worst team in MLB and the worst team in the NL. If they played the Twins, the game would be called after 20 innings at 0-0 because the crowd would have all killed themselves and the flies/smell would overcome the umpires.
Wait until Wainwright's able to go through a start against a major league team without hanging several dozen curveballs and/or getting a swing and a miss on a fastball before declaring him back. But it has to be a major league team - the Padres do not count.
He still looks like a slightly better version of Jeff Suppan circa 2004 to me right now.

Well, this is a bit more pessimistic than I'd like, but I agree, it will be nice to see this outing against a team that doesn't suck. Sure would have been nice to see it against Atlanta last weekend.
