Bill Center - Good morning all. Let's talk about the Padres or anything else on your mind . . . such as how the Aztecs played defense last night

Do you think the Padres should keep Eckstein at short, or move him to second? And what about giving Antonelli a shot at second?

11:02

Bill Center - Eckstein prefers to play second this season. Luis Rodriguez figures to be the shortstop

Why is the Padres organization so damn arrogant?

11:02

Bill Center - Interesting question, but please go further. Arrogant how?

11:04

Bill Center - As for Antonelli, I really believe he needs to know he's going to be starting the season at Portland so that there is no pressure this spring to make the major league roster. He's got some mechanical issues that developed last year to address.

Keith Law rank the Padres Farm System #19. He said no upside except Latos. I heard we are lower by Baseball America. Fuson has to be on the hot seat?

11:06

Bill Center - I like Hunter. Latos isn't the only young pitcher that excites me. Pelzer is an interesting guy. There are others. I'm interested for example, to see how Ramos, Carrillo, Schmidt look this spring. For that matter, Bush, too. I also believe Kulbacki and Blanks will hit major league pitching.

This Aztec team is stacked with seniors. Does Fisher have any new transfers or freshman for next year?

11:08

Bill Center - The redshirt that really is fun to watch is Shelley, the Crawford kid who transferred back. I really believe they have as chance to make some noise this season. When they are playing hard, they are fun to watch on both sides of the floor
