Thu, 28 Aug 2008 10:03:01 GMT

Everything about the Padres' 5-4 victory over Arizona yesterday pleased Jody Gerut. First, the win completed a three-game sweep of the NL West leader. “We're not going to be pushovers,” Gerut said. Second, the Padres had to overcome a 4-0 deficit against Randy Johnson. “We fought our way back,” said Gerut.

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 10:03:01 GMT

The Padres probably have lost Scott Hairston to the disabled list. The outfielder, who has been platooning with Jody Gerut in center, probably suffered ligament damage and a bone chip in his left thumb yesterday while trying to make a diving catch of a drive to left-center in the sixth inning.

Grin and Gerut (Bugs and Cranks)

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 06:29:12 GMT

With all due respect to the likes of Cliff Lee, Fernando Tatis and even Josh Hamilton, no one has authored a more compelling comeback this season than Jody Gerut. However, since he’s languishing with a last-place squad, Gerut has flown almost completely under the national radar. The soon-to-be 31-year-old outfielder was completely out of baseball [...]

Congratulations, It’s a Center Fielder (Ducksnorts)

Wed, 27 Aug 2008 14:46:31 GMT

One of the few pleasant surprises in a miserable season has been the resurrection of Jody Gerut’s career. Gerut, who hadn’t played in the big leagues since 2005, signed a minor-league contract with the Padres back in January. Talk about under the radar. As Mick Jagger once sang, “I’ve got no expectations.” It’s not like he [...]

Well you can't chalk this loss up against the wuthering bullpen. There was never a lead to blow. If Pedro had pitched all season he'd be giving Santana a run for his money as Gopherball Champion Starting with the first pitch of the game, a Jody Gerut gopher ball surrendered by Pedro , the Mets fell behind and despite a couple of mewling little efforts at offense, stayed behind in a demoralising...
