Over/under on how many major league hitters hate Padilla for this pitch?

Might other pitchers pick up on the success of this approach? It doesn't hurt that Padilla's fastball is in the mid-90's to add to the deception.

As a fan, I love watching it.

I hate Padilla. I think he's a punk not because of the pitch, but because no matter what team he is on or what team he is facing he goes after people's heads. As for the pitch, Ike Davis seems to like it.

I guess they could call it "the dirty balloon knot".

Not a fan of him because he broke Aaron Rowand's face earlier this year, so I have to agree.

Padilla is the worst. I have a good friend that is a Dodger and says that Padilla is disgusting.

I'm confused, disgusting how?

Disgusting as he is so good it is "disgusting" or disgusting as in he doesn't wash his balloon knot, disgusting?
