As spring training begins this week, the last thing a Major League Baseball team wants to do is wake up a sleeping opponent.
Yes, the Los Angeles Dodgers have been sleeping for years.
Yes, the Padres have totally dominated them in head-to-head competition.
So, why did Padres’ General Manager Kevin Towers wake up the Dodgers with the following statements at a recent luncheon concerning the Padres-Dodgers exhibition games March 15-16 in Beijing, China?
“My hope is we can kick their tails over there and give them a little taste of what we're going to give them over the course of the season,” Towers said, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.
Whoops, sounds like the Padres are already bragging about their dominance over the Dodgers.
Don’t think for a second that the Dodgers won’t have those comments posted in their clubhouse when they play the Padres this year, beginning with an April 4-6 series in San Diego!
