"It's kind of the last thing you expect to get to come back and get to play in your hometown and especially at a time when there is an opportunity to compete for a championship," he said while addressing his extension deal Monday.The $100 million contract extension is something firing up padres fans of all ages."He can help out the Padres and maybe put us in a World Series," said 10-year-old Wesley as he walked out of the Team Store at Padres stadium.
Leslie Geier said Musgrove is a consistent performer and recalls one of the best performances he's had to date."Keep the Padres in it. I mean they're always chasing the dodgers now so it's like- let's do it," said Geier.
