Daily Friar 1.25.13 

Last night was the Padres inaugural members meeting. This was previously called the season ticket holders meeting, but now instead of being season ticket holders you are known as members of the club. I didn’t get to go because I am not a season ticket holder, but many people were there last night including a few Friarhood members. Brandon Cline was the official tweeter for the Padres last night and was giving us a play by play of what happened and what was talked about. He also wrote a great piece recapping all the information which will be found below. After reviewing some of the stuff that was said last night, I have some mixed reactions. Some of the answers seemed canned, but there were candid moments as well, which I really liked. I think my favorite part is Bud Black saying Edinson Volquez needs to pitch better. Not too often your manager blatantly calls you out before the season starts. Anyways I won’t keep talking about it, and I will let you read all about it below. Enjoy the (minimal) articles:

2013 Padres Inaugural Members Meeting Recap – Brandon Cline of The Friarhood

“With this event tonight, it just signifies that baseball is rapidly approaching. January is almost over and we just have to suffer through the doldrums of February until Spring Training is upon us. We can do this, guys.”

Gaslamp Ball calls out Time Warner Cable

“Just in case you were hoping for something else, the thing you should know is that Time Warner Cable still won’t be carrying the Padres in 2013.”

Thousands pay respect to Stan Musial - MLB.com

“A six-hour public visitation for Stan Musial, who died at the age of 92 on Saturday, brought thousands of people out to the Cathedral Basilica on Thursday. There, they could join a line that snaked through the Basilica pews and ended at Musial’s open casket.”
