Padres ace Mat Latos missed Monday's start against the Dodgers because of the stomach flu. Latos said he lobbied San Diego manager Bud Black, but the skipper was concerned that the right-hander was dehydrated and weakened by the illness. "It didn't make sense for me to pitch a guy who didn't sleep, who was throwing up all night, and when he came in looked white as a sheet," Black said. Latos said he'll likely start Tuesday night if he's feeling better. |
