@stZathehuman @StoolBaseball @ChrisKlemmer @BarstoolHubbs @martymush @TomScibelli That’s true and I get that. However, I’d take the Padres lineup over the others. Also helps to have the best bullpen in baseball. I think because the Padres didn’t make any exciting moves, people are down on them as well as the questions in the rotation.

@azteczzzz I do. You’re right though, very hard to keep clean.

@padrespod Do people like white hats? They stain immediately from sweat and you can never get it out.

The leaked city connects aren’t bad, they’re just basic. The Padres OG city connect were special so I didn’t really expect the new ones to be better than that. The white hat would put up crazy numbers at petco park though!

Was special* plz don’t roast me

@MLBPA @Brent_Rooker25 Baseball players using the NFL and NBA to show how salary cap doesn’t mean parity is such a weak argument. Both of them can be significantly impacted by ONE player. Use the NBA’s model and it’ll be fine.

@Ken_Rosenthal I’ll personally remember the day you’re out of baseball pipsqueak!

@captjackson Tbf about last year we had our elimination game pitcher not finish the first. So played out to be true

The Padres season depends on Musgrove and King being healthy and effective. Would be lying if I said I’m not extremely concerned about this rotation.

@NikkiPBee @DodgersOhtani17 Hope so

@padrespod @DodgersOhtani17 not true. He’ll be effective for the padres this year.

@carredondo28 Huh?

@padrespod I thought preller could make no mistakes with drafting and developing?

@Deadwood1888 Yes but it’s probably fair to attribute some of that to moving to the pen

@padrespod That was 3 years ago, he has been healthy since.

@carredondo28 Bullpen guys yeah. Maybe some will emerge but the rotation is scary thin

@padrespod Isn’t Preller the talent king. Padres have arms by the dozen in the system to come up and help, right?

@Deadwood1888 Problem is morejon got hurt every single year. Ideally he’s a starter but couldn’t stay healthy

Its time to stretch Morejon back out to being a starter. Morejon was rated higher as a starting pitcher by some talent scouts than Gore was. Early career injuries forced him to the pen but the last 3 years he has been quite solid there. Its worth the risk. If Musgrove can only pitch 2 innings then start him in the pen [not on IL unless of course he is hurt again] and piggyback Morejon [stretching him out to starter innings gradually].

@DodgersOhtani17 Yeah and walker is washed

@padrespod Joe will not start the season with the team it’s expected that Buehler will start the year in the rotation

Trade: The #49ers are finalizing a trade with the #Cowboys for standout DT Osa Odighizuwa, per me, @TomPelissero, and @SlaterNFL. Big-time DL help.

@973TheFanSD @MrDimplesSD 95ish?

Walker Buehler tossed three innings today in Peoria against the KBO’s NC Dinos. After the outing, Buehler said it was “all in all, a good day” and that he thinks “the velocity was a little bit above kind of where we thought it would be.”
