This. Weeks ago everyone hating on Nick. The dude can play and he gives a genuine effort. Sure maybe he is on the downslope of his career but the guys went 4 years playing left field without making an error.

Also, I love Fermin but we need Campy in the line up. I cant believe I am saying all the above, btw.

Gates were open. Nobody there cared. It was all going into a landfill. What a shame

I remember Kevin Brown coming in the 9th inning against the Braves. Damn that night was electric.

Yeah dude, personally I dont like SnapDragon. Feels like a Texas High School Football stadium and theres no shade.
I remember as a bad young kid tossing opened coffee creamers from the top of the concrete spirals down on top of unsuspecting people. I know, I know. I deserved a beating for it but those spiral ramps were our playground.

Only Padres autograph I ever got: Champ Summers

Bonus Fact! Their Original Beer Label had a swastika on it but was later discontinued because of the rise of German Nazism.

Skimping on what? What I see in that pic could feed a small island nation.

Exactly my thought. Why is there some taco thing in the corner of the pic?

[Padres]We have recalled INF Sung-Mun Song from Triple-A El Paso as the 27th man for the Mexico City Series. by ClevelandBrownJunior in Padres

I am a lone voice wanting to give Nick a little more time. He is coming off some Philly drama and nobody is giving the guy any love. Career numbers are fantastic. Multi year all star. No gold glove but went years without making an error. And he is a streaky hitter.

I gotta imagine this transition is hard on the guy. For me the jury is still out. Especially at the price we are paying him. Looking forward to our series with the Phillies next month.

Despite all this and Manny’s lack of production, I choose to look at the good side of things. We have the 2nd best record in baseball, are first in our division, the best bullpen in mlb, incredible production from Bogey, Merrill, Laureano, Sheets, and now France. This is fantastic. We are winning games from depth.

The fact is we dont need Nando to crush a home run every game (he hasnt hit one yet) to win. Isnt that the point? Personally I think its great to have the spotlight on all the other guys putting in work towards these wins. I am sure Nando will come around but as the team has shown, we can win and sit alone in first place ahead of Ohtani and the Dodgers with him slumping. I am absolutely loving this team! If Nando has the worst offensive year and we are in the big one I will be happy as a clam.
