As usual, the Padres perceived lack of power is largely a result of
the Petco effect. Their power number are in the middle of the pack on
the road. Meanwhile, the road ERA is next-to-last in the league. And
we still hear about how the great pitching staff just isn't getting
any sup****t.
I think finding somebody who can play center field, and preferably,
bring something to the table offensively, should be a higher priority
now. If that "something" is power, great, but I'd be as happy with a
table-setter as with a table-clearer.
