Quote from ultratvfan on May 28, 2025, 3:57 pmUnbelievable. The Padres blew a 5 runs lead. Well, at least they won the series.
Hart pitched pretty well until the 5th innng, then his pitching collapsed and the BP could not get it done. Schildt should have brought in Suarez rather than Peralta. Suarez has pitched 2 innings before. IMO, Schildt mismanaged pitching today.
At least the Dodgers, Giants and Dbacks all lost.
Bring in the Pirates.
GO PADRES!
I really thought Suárez was going to come in when Peralta loaded the bases with 2 outs, don't think a 4 out save from Suárez after a day off was too much to ask.

SD offense gets going right out of the gate and I'm thinking we are cruising to get the brooms. Boom! Pitching implodes again. What a horrible loss, this one will hurt. Could have gained one on the division today.

One of my pet peeves with modern baseball is how managers refuse to use their higher leverage guys early in games regardless of the situation. 2 on with 2 outs and the 3 hole hitter representing the tying run and you go to a guy making the second appearance of his career. Why not use one of your better arms there and bring Morgan in later in a less stressful situation? You give up 3 runs in the 5th trying to save a guy for an unknown situation in the 7th or 8th. Bring back the old school fireman.

I have a couple of pet peeves.
One is that I think managers over use lefty/lefty or righty/righty matchups. When you have a relief pitcher who is very solid and lights, he is taken out in favor of lefty on lefty or righty on righty. If a solid starter can shutdown left handed batter and right handed batters, relievers should be able to do the same thing.
Another pet peeve is when a solid lights out pitcher who has a low pitch count is removed in favor of a reliever because the manager doesn't want his starter to have a too high pitch count on. In 1974, Nolan Ryan(Angels) had a 235 pitch count in 13 innings striking out 19 and he pitched for 27 years. Ryan's opponent in that game, Luis Tiant (Red Sox), went 14 1/3 inning. Those days are gone. Today, complete 9 inning games are rare. I think managers are over protective of their starters.

I like to try and keep in mind that we don’t know the status of every RP every game.
It’s a long season…..just because one didn’t pitch the day before doesn’t mean necessarily mean they are good to go.
Schildt “does” know the status/availability of each arm….also the stats each hitter has against certain RP or even “type” of RP.
Bad decision……maybe?
Or,he had his reasons we aren’t aware of for going to Morgan/Peralta in those spots.
When they do their jobs he’s a genius…..when they don’t…he picked the wrong guy.

I remember the days of having multi-inning stud relievers...Rollie Fingers, Goose Gossage and Mike Marshall and now we have 3 out / pitch count relievers which is garbage like Josh Hader pulled here. I wish it would go back to "Win the game you're playing today and worry about tomorrow's game tomorrow.
Just a side note...AJ Preller seems to sign a guy that teams discard and they end up having a good season in San Diego...Jurickson Profar from the Rockies, Donovan Solano from the Twins and how the god awful White Sox let Gavin Sheets go is beyond me...so far all sheets has done for San Diego is the following ; Gavin Sheets Stats, Height, Weight, Position, Rookie Status & More | Baseball-Reference.com
Games - 51, 2B- 23, Hits - 47, HR - 11 , RBI - 34 , BB / SO - 11/46, BA .275 , OPS .833
There are teams that would take that all day long but I think he would be a good fit in San Diego on a 2-3 year extension...he clearly likes San Diego and the Padres like him...get something done AJ.
Go Padres !!!

I think the Padres control Sheets for 2 more years via arb

Yes we do and that makes an amazing signing incredible.
