Padres vs Braves May 13-15

PreviousPage 4 of 4

I had to pay the $5 for Peacock to see the game today.

Regretted it for some time.

So many K’s looking which is getting very frustrating.

What ever happened to “swing at anything close” with 2 strikes?

But….all’s well that ends well I guess.

 

Also,hopefully someone reminded Kim to put the tag to the bag.Don’t reach out and try to tag the body.

I didn't want to say anything until the game was over this time. Nice win for the boys. We're officially alone in first place until at least later today 🤣. Hopefully they can keep it going during this next stretch of games.

With regard to the earlier question of what happened to Steve Wilson, I believe the Padres are still trying to determine which of the relievers can go back to back and which need at least a day in-between.  From what I've seen and heard from the Padres' announcers, the times Wilson has been less effective is when he has to go back to back so as the season goes on less likely to see him in that role unless there is no other choice.

The same determination is happening down in the minors.  Castillo recently went back to back and I believe Baez did also.  Both have been very good and could return soon now that we've weeded out Hill and Lamet.

What happened to Hill?

Hill is on there 15 day Injured List and could possibly move to the 60 day if the injury is serious and/or they need his 40-man roster spot for someone else. By the way, Hill has 2 options remaining had he not ended up on the IL.

So a good series over the weekend, and for the season against the current WS Champion Braves. 2 of 3 over the weekend, and could've/should've been a sweep, and 4 of 6 for the season.

Now SD gets a well needed day off, and then we play PHI.

SD will need to play tough in PHI, as PHI has taken 2 of 3 from the DUDs this weekend.

Need to prioritize keeping Harper from beating us.

That’s the one guy that can hit 4 home runs in the series and carry that team.

Castellanos is good….but I’d expect Harper to go off more than I would Nick.

I paid the $5 as well and set my reminder to cancel before the month is up 😀

Philly played LA tough. Hopefully, they're out of gas for us.

Both teams had to travel to Philly over the weekend, but at least the Padres were in the same time zone.  It could be there might be a slight psychological letdown versus the overachieving Padres vice the huge payroll all-star Dodgers roster.  We'll see how our rehab'd pitchers do against their homer hitting line-up - I'm hoping we match them power for power in this series.
