Padres are back to their hitting woes. Ugly.

Making Mariners' pitching look like a championship rotation. 5 hits today, but none has made a difference so far. Offense disappears into the Witness Protection Program for the third straight game.
Profar has an opportunity with two on, but there are already two outs… and then he K's it away. The offense is mired in the dumpster again.

Seattle has a good pitching staff. They are like the Padres in previous seasons--good pitch and no hit.

Mets won again, Pads now two games behind them in the loss column and on the outside looking in at a playoff spot.

Mets won again, Pads now two games behind them in the loss column and on the outside looking in at a playoff spot. .001 difference from Mets, but still … that's all it takes.  This "Win Some - Lose Some" mentality leaves them hovering just above "C" level. Again. |

I honestly wouldn't be opposed to selling at tbe deadline and re-tooling for 2025.

We're right in the thick of it and we're doing it without Tatis. Him coming back just makes our bench stronger. I don't know what to think about Boegarts.
Hopefully, Musgrove can come back and help us as well. Make a trade for pitching if at all possible.
I had said that if we were at 500 at the half way point, I think we get in there, but it's going to be a heckuva fight to do it with a lot of mediocre teams in the hunt as well. Should be fun, I hope.

Tony, Jr. didn't seem to recall that the Crime Dog (sometimes known as Fred McWhiff - but not he connected …) had already been inducted into the HOF last year. Oops.

Padres get a lead and Waldron craps the mound. When the knuckleball is not working, this is what you get. He's got nuthin' else.

Hey Waldron, in case you didn't know, your sweeper isn't sweeping, bro.

De los Suckos finally gets the call a very low leverage situation - they've already lost the game. Fire away. And there it goes.
LOFL - why is this clown still in the BP. He just plain sucks.

5 game losing streak. Yet another weak offensive "performance". Pitching to match. Looks like they're taking their All-Star Break a little early… Inconsistency is fast becoming their calling card.

I thought we hit a lot of balls on the barrel, but right at people. No breaks.

We've scored 10 runs in the last 5 games, and 5 of those were from the first of this 5 game losing streak. Horrible. Not gonna cut it. So wildly inconsistent. Sheesh.
