    Padres playoff picture, Michael King starts game 1, playoff roster focus

    Why did the Padres start a struggling and possibly injured Casey Mize on Friday versus the Diamondbacks with a chance to finally clinch the top wild card seed and host a series at Petco Park?Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discussed the Padres lopsided loss to the Diamondbacks, and Mize's comments on time to have an honest conversation about his health. The two discuss how the Padres inability to clinch on Friday affects the Padres final two games, not being able to rest some of their veterans, and why the Padres didn't start Randy Vasquez on Friday instead. Craig Stammen has already announced that Michael King will be their game one starter regardless of opponent or venue, but what other decisions are ahead and could the team end up carrying three starters? Marty and Darren also discuss the the one team the Padres probably don't want to face in the round, (hello, Arizona Diamondbacks), and why King has been waiting a long time for his next opportunity.Kalshi - kalshi.com/r/BASEBALL Deposit and place at least $25 in total trades using code BASEBALL to unlock $55 reward. 18+ only.

    Padres feeling the pressure, huge start for Robbie Ray, magic number 2

    How much pressure are the Padres feeling after a rough 7-0 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers? Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss Michael King's rough outing, the silent offense and the Padres difficulty against the Dodgers bullpen today, which is reminiscent of when eight Dodgers pitchers shut out the Padres in the NLDS. The two discuss Dave Roberts comments on essentially auditioning players like Roki Sasaki and Edwin Diaz for playoff roles, and what to make of King's struggles after the Padres reshuffled their rotation. Marty and Darren hear from a disappointed King on his performance, plus Craig Stammen discusses moving on quickly, and why it's a no brainer for King's next start to be game one of the wild, barring a winner take all finale on Sundat. Darren and Marty also discuss the Diamondbacks putting pressure on the Padres with a big win at Colorado, and a crucial start for Robbie Ray vs. Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

The three discuss the wild card race, what type of job Craig Stammen has done and the Padres dilemma in how they'll use Michael King in case they have a chance at the top wild card spot on the final day, Alden then previews his upcoming piece on the Padres new ownership group of Jose E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones, and what's been so impressive about the Padres second half surge.Use our code for 10% off your next order of MLB tickets on SeatGeek*: seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/TERRITORY10 Sponsored by SeatGeek. *Restrictions apply.
