Was it a baseball injury, or more motorcycle mishaps?

Wonder how much the Padres paid to insure Fernando's contract?

Was it a baseball injury, or more motorcycle mishaps? Acee claimed in his article in the U-T that Tatis started feeling pain in the wrist "shortly thereafter" the accident.

He does "claim" quite a bit. Occasionally, one of his "claims" are correct. Too bad there was a lockout going on during this time, as maybe the team could have had more influence on what should, or could, have been done to limit the time away from the field for Tatis.

Playoff odds came out this morning. Padres sitting at 78%, 2nd in the NL West. Guess the algorithms don't share the doom and gloom.

The algorithms don't play the game. The playoff predictors tend to be pretty accurate - I don't think a historically bad collapse with an inexperienced manager and a myriad of injuries coming out of the pandemic is indicative of the true talent level of the team. This is the same that was 63-47 through 110 games last year before the ceiling caved in.

This is the same that was 63-47 through 110 games last year before the ceiling caved in. They were 67-49 (high-water mark of the season...then went 12-34). It will be interesting to see what the pieces that weren't available last year will do this season, but I prefer to see the play on the field versus algorithms. I've seen over/under on wins for the Padres at 91.5 for this upcoming season. Based on the current roster, I would take the under.

The team that went 12-34 was without (for stretches or entirely): Paddack, Snell, Darvish, Clevinger, Pomeranz, Lamet....and the list goes on. And that's just on the pitching side. Current projections have them at 89-90 wins.

I'll be on pins and needles during the stretch without Tatis as will MANY others, and rightfully so. Like Aardvark said, they don't play the game. Having said that, I hope we go undefeated during this stretch, and specific players rise to the occasion.

Who cares?

Who cares? Uh huh. You must care, since you're all bent about about it. I know this is hitting a nerve with you, especially when you're actually going to go with "algorithm's" as your evidence, and people are saying algorithm's don't play on the field. So, just chill out, and we'll all hope they perform well without Tatis.

Citing "algorithms" as my evidence...because algorithms are plugged into projection models. That's literally how projections are derived. Do you think people just guess and throw out random numbers or what? I appreciate that people want to play games on the field, but that process hasn't started yet. Oy vey.
