Two in a Row for Jake the Fake


The Padres inched closer to the playoffs Thursday night as Jake Peavy won his second straight start, meaning the alleged ace of the staff is now only three games under .500 (11-14).
But that's not the two-game streak we're talking about.
Somehow, Jake the Fake managed to go his second consecutive game without challenging the opposing team's first base coach to meet him at San Diego Fight Club.
We know it must have been extremely difficult for Jake to control his thug-like tendencies for two straight games. But we must give credit where credit is due; nice going, Jake.
It must be comforting for Chargers general manager A.J. Smith to know that if he keeps losing players to the police blotter, there's a strong-armed guy in town who would fit right in with the tough guys at Chargers Park.

I know he's struggled this season, but my man-crush on Peavy won't let me believe in any outcome other than complete redemption once the playoffs start. Provided of course that he doesn't break a rib between now and then.
