Athletes are getting funny again!

The world is once again turning, and the stars are all misaligned. At least that's what I feel like when I start receiving awesome news about athletes doing dumb shit.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Vicente Padilla was reportedly treated for a minor gunshot wound in Nicaragua. It was earlier believed that Padilla shot himself, but Padilla's reps confirmed that it was actually his shooting instructor who shot him. I'm willing to bet that lesson was free.

Reports say that Ned Colletti is checking out the extent of Padilla's injury before deciding whether or not the Dodgers will bring him back this season. I mean, jeez, the bullpen is already so crowded....oh, wait.

Dodgers add to the pen.

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Joe Torre announced today that they have signed former Texas Rangers right handed pitcher Vicente Padilla. The totally ballsy move was made after Hiroki Kuroda was put on the DL for getting a line drive to the head last Saturday, and the Dodgers needed a starter to fill his little shoes.
Padilla is scheduled to make his debut in blue against Colorado on August 27th. I'll be watching.
