PADRES AT COLO
Quote from fenn68 on August 28, 2020, 7:37 pmAnnie HeilbrunnMorejon will start tomorrow. Good chance Paddack goes Sunday, Tingler said. Monday is open — might be bullpen day or taxi squad guy. #Padres==============I guess the Monday starter will be dependent on how taxed the pen is on Saturday and Sunday. At least Davies is doing his job tonight.Any idea of a starter type on the "taxi squad"? We know it is not Eickhoff. Lucchesi or Cararena? Doubt they do a spot start with Gore in COLO.Monday is trade deadline ... so some other available / not available issues may be in play.
Quote from fenn68 on August 28, 2020, 7:53 pmA real COORS Field game! Hold all tickets.
Note that France is really beginning to be a hitting threat (now over .300 BA) and COULD be solidifying that DH slot (with back-up 3B/1B/emergency C).

Quote from 84padres on August 28, 2020, 8:00 pmStrahm coming in, could be great could give up 10. With our bullpen there is no inbetween. Hope it's one of tos games Tingler comes out as a mad genius and doesn't stick to a reliever having to start an inning.

If he and France become fixtures this team gets a lot better immediately.

Quote from Randy Manese on August 28, 2020, 10:23 pmLooked bleak in the beginning, but the guys rallied and Davies self-corrected. I love that Strahm didn't want to be taken out but Story was coming up and at that point in the game, momentum could have turned around. Grisham having a very difficult time hitting lefties but who else could we put at the top of the line-up against lefties? Go back to Tatis? Nice that Mateo had a good game but that's just one good game at Coors - can't stick him up there. Obtain someone in a trade?

Quote from hoffy51 on August 29, 2020, 4:58 amThey can say it's a bullpen day, but Morejon is always the starter. I believe the Padres think that he is further along at this point more than either Patino or Gore. They would like him to go 4 or 5 innings today, and then gradually stretch it out to 6 or 7 as the season progresses. THEN the bullpen can take over.
