Tony, Jr. shitting on the offense after a go ahead home run gets him back in my good graces.

Hurting your back trying to rob a home run is a lame injury for a 23-year-old.

Preller’s done a good job training Padres fans to obsess over years of control but it makes sense with Skubal because 2001 Randy Johnson couldn’t guide this team to the World Series.

A’s at Padres is one of the best uniform matchups and we’ll only see it once, and that’s if the A’s don’t wear an alt tomorrow.

The Padres are currently 7th in BP IP and instead of pursuing a starter to bring the number down, Preller wants to bring in another reliever.

Preller is such a fucking idiot

The Padres‘ whole strategy this season has been being carried by whatever depth scrub is hot in a given week (this week it’s Andujar).

May OBO (we're 10-9 with a -5 run diff) 1. Song, 2B (86 wRC+) 2. Sheets, DH (198) 3. France, 1B (96) 4. Andujar, 3B (123) 5. Castellanos, LF (76) 6. Tatis, RF (66) 7. Merrill, CF (67) 8. Bogaerts, SS (63) 9. Duran, C (15)

Tatis will be fine. His Barrel and Hard Hit percentages are both up, and the latter is 97th percentile. His EV is down, but that’s still 86th percentile. Manny, on the other hand, is either hurt or has gotten old very suddenly. His Brrls, HH, and EV are all twenty-five to 50 percentile points down.

The Padres believe in Vasquez less than I do.

Castellanos’ May wRC+ is 75

That was a loud pop

Very Padresesque win for the Dodgers.

What makes this even fresher is that he and/or his family are frequently in San Diego, based on how often the 56 is shut down by black SUVs.

FG finally analyzes the Padres and the article is borderline unreadable.

I drive up the 163 most nights around 9:30 and there were a lot of obviously drunk drivers tonight #FTDUp

Dodgers fans are really melting down about their offense like they don’t have the second best run diff and first best xwOBA.

The Padres are eleven games over .500, which is a season high.

Miller’s FIP is now over zero. 0.10, to be specific.

Between the Thunder and Dodgers, it’s been a bad night for rat faced white guys.

You can feel the experience gap and it’s still going to 2OT.

OBO with real stats 1. Bogaerts, SS 2. Sheets, LF 3. Andujar, DH 4. France, 1B 5. Laureano, RF 6. Tatis, 2B 7. Merrill, CF 8. Manny, 3B 9. Fermin, C And with xStats 1. Tatis, RF 2. Sheets, DH 3. Bogaerts, SS 4. France, 1B 5. Laureano, LF 6. Manny, 3B 7. Merrill, CF 8. Song, 2B 9. Duran, C

Cleveland, OKC, and San Antonio (and New York) in the conference finals. I’m this close to going NBA full-time.

A blowout??

For as much shit as I give Stammen for leaning on the horsemen, the rest of the team doesn’t help him out.

It’s too bad the Vedder Cup is a joke because this would be seasons’ worth of shit-talking material.

It’s bleak to say but besides Manny at DH, this is our best defensive alignment currently.

Fermin getting absolutely blown away while getting praised.

lol at Peacock shitting all over the Vedder Cup.

What an unceremonious MVP announcement.

For all of the “There’s no way Merrill, Manny, and Tatis will all be this bad all season” takes, the odds of one of them being legitimately fucked can’t be low.

Imagine if Niebla had been able to build the coaching staff this year. I bet it wouldn’t just be full of guys whose number was already in his phone

Why the fuck use Adam here?

Does Fermin have options?

BDN buying himself another month.

Just look at the swing illustrator data - namely, year-to-year ideal attack angle % and intercept points. All the talk last week about Tatis? It's almost the whole team. The approach is wrong and there's been no correction. If it's not Souza, it's whoever's communicating it to him. shorturl.at/Hk5oU

For all of the "Are we really blaming the hitting coach again??" takes, here's the big three's numbers as of 5/15 the past three years: 26 Tatis: 184 PA, 74 wRC+ Merrill: 180, 76 Manny: 176, 76 25 Tatis: 180, 162 Manny: 173, 156 Merrill: 73, 211 24 Tatis: 201, 123 Manny: 174, 76 Merrill: 152, 108

We do nothing but let you do less is another patented Padres winning formula

The Spurs making the WCF and Vasquez continuing his inscrutable success on the same night makes me wonder how things would’ve gone had Preller just let Niebla develop all the young pitching.

The Padres are losing Laureano, France, Adam, Morejon, probably King, and maybe Pivetta, plus Preller might lose his job soon. We have to have another Prellerpalooza coming.

Since they’re handing out phantom ILs, they should give one to Tatis when Crone gets back so he can get his shit together.

Sounds like Waldron didn’t realize that he’s injured

I really enjoy rooting for a team that trusted the process.

During the scoreless streak, Miller threw 19+ pitches twice, and once was 19 in 1.1. Including the streak buster, he’s done it five times in seven appearances.

Is Adam fucked? Two strike outs all month, and a sub-4 K/9 on the season.

Thank you, Dan Wilson.

I need FG or BPro (if that still exists) to explain Vasquez to me.

Peavy praising the Soto trade for Washington on MLBN 🤔🤔🤔

Padres run differential is -3 on the season, -11 the last two weeks, and -24 the past month.
