    Padres finish off 5-2 road trip with Reds series win | 600

    Padres finish off 5-2 road trip with Reds series win | 600

    Reaction to the Padres series win in Cincinnati vs. the Reds. Sure, they were playing their third game in almost 24 hours but the offense simply needed to be better in game one to support Joe Musgrove and the bullpen. Nick Martinez faced his former team in game two and Matt Waldron pitched in the series finale. Xander Bogaerts was placed on the IL and it seems like he'll be out for the next couple months. Jake Cronenworth played his first game at 2B in 2024. Is that the best spot to put him while Bogey is out?

    Padres lose Bogaerts but take 3/4 at Braves | 599

    Padres lose Bogaerts but take 3/4 at Braves | 599

    Reaction to the Padres series win vs. the Braves. Matt Waldron continued pitching well against good teams on Friday before game two got postponed to Monday. Yu Darvish dominated on Sunday Night Baseball with Dylan Cease and Randy Vasquez going on doubleheader day before traveling to Cincinnati. Xander Bogaerts had to leave Monday's first game after hurting his left shoulder diving for a ball. What's the latest on his health?

    Padres swept by last place Rockies | 598

    Padres swept by last place Rockies | 598

    Reaction to the Padres getting swept at home by the Rockies. There were tons of wasted opportunities in Monday's loss but a lot of the attention was on Manny Machado. Is there hope that he'll get back to being the Manny Machado we need him to be? Dylan Cease and Michael King pitched the final two games of the series and Mike Shildt had some interesting comments during the series.

    Padres take the series vs. Dodgers | 597

    Padres take the series vs. Dodgers | 597

    Reaction to the Padres series win vs. the Dodgers at Petco Park. Luis Arraez had one heck of a moment in his home debut on Friday night. Matt Waldron did enough on Saturday but the offense wasn't good enough. Is there concern with the bridge to Robert Suarez? Yu Darvish and Walker Buehler faced off in the rubber match. Plus, did anyone see all those Dodgers fans marching through our streets? And will AJ Preller be getting a reliever soon? (Apologies for all the coughing)

    Cease dominates, Padres win Cubs series | 596

    Cease dominates, Padres win Cubs series | 596

    Reaction to the Padres series win vs. the Cubs. Robert Suarez stepped up big time in the series opener, recording a five-out save! In game two, Jurickson Profar was going to be the hero until the bullpen couldn't keep the lead. Was Mike Shildt at fault for some of the decisions? Dylan Cease returned to Chicago to finish off the series on Wednesday before an off day and boy, was he tremendous.

    Padres win D-backs series but Musgrove on IL | 595

    Padres win D-backs series but Musgrove on IL | 595

    Reaction to the Padres series win in Phoenix over the D-backs! You may have heard there was a big acquisition right before the series began and he arrived in time for game two on Saturday. Luis Arraez couldn't have started off his Padres tenure in a better way, becoming the first player with a four-hit game in their debut in franchise history (oh, and the offense scored 13 runs too). Dylan Cease and Michael King pitched great and Matt Waldron threw in the series finale going for the sweep. Plus, what will the team look like positionally with an extra infield option on the roster? Joe Musgrove was placed on the IL with right elbow inflammation so how concerned should we be?
