I get what you're saying. Snelling was 100% going to be traded at the deadline. It was just a matter of who the receiving party was going to be. I felt like the Snelling trade had to happen. Not a fan of trading Mazur, who offers some depth now with long term potential as well.

All that being said, the Padres now have one hell of a bullpen, and a better starting pitcher then Mazur in Perez. Got to like the Padres chances of making a deep run here. I'm also much more a fan of trading for arms at the deadline then bats. It's good to have lineup continuity with the position players.

Hopefully, the bats stay consistent, and this without Tatis who I hope is well enough to contribute. We've done pretty good without him, but can't wait to get him back for the stretch run.

Well, Waldo just took a massive mound shiite in the first inning. Seems to have trouble getting rolling…6.86 ERA in the first inning. Can't find the zone. Now 5-0. Nice work and not the way to start this game. Unbelievable - having to get the BP up in the first inning. Just took the Padres fans out of the game right there. Luckily, there are plenty of L.A. fans there to cheer him on.

It was going to be tight with Glasnow starting tonight, but now … I fear AWOL offense now that they're back at Petco Park - but at least Manny is showing them how they can get back into this one.

Yes, have to pretty much hold them to 5 runs to have a chance. We'll see.

The LA bullpen is an absolute mess. On their...third closer? And they still can't get it done.

Solano has the advantage with LHP. Good call. Unless … Roberts! FAIL!!! Love seeing a player like Solano get some. He deserved to be the hero tonight.

Love it!!!

Shildt > Roberts tonight. Outplayed and out managed. WTF was that move to the mound after Mark Prior had just been out there.

Yes, Solano was the ultimate hero, but there a few different Stars in this game. Machado with two bombs, Merrill with the game tying home run, and the Bullpen was magnificent. Sure glad we didn't have to use De Los Suckos tonight, and never again!!!
