Oh Day Of Days

Well, here we are. With minor exceptions, the last day for Major League baseball teams to sign players selected in the June draft.

On the table for the Padres taking are three players - Donavan Tate, Everett Williams and Keyvius Sampson - that have high high upside and could all become Major League stars. Or they could all flame out and never make the big leagues. Nobody knows what will happen at this point.

All we do know is that by the end of today the Padres will have either put all their chips in the pot and signed these three guys, or they will have sat back, shoved their money back in their pocket, and let potential greatness slip away once again.

I for one hope Moorad and the front office boys go all in.
