Fernando Tatis Jr is the Luis Arraez we deserved?

I don’t believe Don likes Mud’s Forrest Gump.

We really wrestled with the idea of Xander playing 2B over an entire offseason.

Did we give up on Wil Myers at 3rd too soon?

Tatis at 2nd feels like when you see Metallica and they’re like, “We’re gonna do one where Lars plays guitar.”

Is Mark Loretta okay with this? We wait…

Maybe the Puffer Vest makes you see things no one else can see…like Tatis starting at 2nd Base.

I’ll start it. #WalkOffDiego

Gavin Sheets is the Hunter Renfroe we deserved.

I stand with Emma Stone on these jerseys. Whatever she decides.

I wonder if Kyle Karros ever wonders if Mike Piazza is actually his dad.

I tell everyday if you want to connect with the city you need to follow me on Blue Sky.

Xander became a real Padre tonight.

Fernando would’ve been knocked. I just want to listen to some Korn.

I guess Doyle does rule.

The uniforms are fine, but I do feel this uncontrollable urge to assist Astros Fans in defense of the trash can scandal. But they’re fine…

I’m really not into losing this game and then eating ham.

What Manny did was right. Also, the Pedroia play was clean.

“I didn’t go to the club last night and got to bed early, but that cantalope at the hotel this morning? Fire, I had an extra piece.”

I thought balls get caught in The Crone Zone.

Preller makes Bud Black interim manager 60 games in, we miss the playoffs, we hit the lock out, and that’s rock bottom.

“Honey, pass the asparagus and Xander’s Prime,” I’ll say at the dinner table to huge laughs…

Got my screens ready…

I don’t participate in April Fools anymore. Not after what happened...at the lake.

Last night I had interest in checking who was pitching for us today, but decided against it.

Stammen is also a German word for something that looks like a decision that is actually a non-decision.

Maybe the Crone Zone should come later in the lineup after many other zones.

If this is just going to be a garbage year I’m going to pretend Castellanos is Jon Bernthal.

Maybe it’s time to build (not rebuild).

That Tony Gwynn Tribute Band who plays for the Giants now doesn’t really hit like him.

Whatever. Walker Buehler has tiny eyes and I don’t trust him.

Jackson Merrill’s Junior Year!!!

Stammen’s Puffy Jacket Ad energy makes me feel like I’m being told I should be fine with a swift wild card exit.

Walker Buehler? Not a real Padre.

At least Jared Weaver was funny about it on the internet.

Harrison Bader looks like a bully from an 80s volleyball movie that doesn’t exist.

Arreaz strikes out! Tony wouldn’t have done that.

Rooting for Buehler against the Giants is going to take some time to get used to.

If you want to throw at Fernando you better bring your ass across 8 Mile.

If we don’t win tonight I think we really lean into the blood war between #TeamSheets and #TeamFrance that will inevitably rip families apart.

It feels like Kenley Jansen has been closing games against the Padres while looking like baseball is hurting him for most of my life.

Can we second guess Stammen for not putting himself in? A good bit for a Friday night.

That was clearly the media’s fault. Manny is fine.

Having Ty France back is the position player version of having Clayton Richard back.

Watched the first Stammen post game press conference. Yeah, we can break him in one year. No problem.

If the Padres don’t get these runs back I’m taking my Padres thoughts back to X.

The big stupid Coke Bottle looks great on Netflix!
