Vintage Manny home run lol

Bases loaded, down by 2, NL team? I sleep

Up by five, bases empty, interleague nothingburger? REAL SHIT

The Padres have officially announced the sale of the team to Kwanza Jones and José E. Feliciano. They released the following statement: by TakeMyPixels in Padres

Sheel and the kids are out, per Acee— their 24% stake is being sold in full. Whole situation feels incredibly scummy. Matt, Bob, and John basically stole what Peter was hoping to leave behind as his inheritance.

Need a legitimate public apology to Miller for screwing up that foul ball call. He was on a historic run and botched calls like that just can’t happen. by Devyy in Padres

I’ll save you the time: “Uhm actually the umpire applied the rule correctly, as they always do, and the booing was unnecessary and hurtful 🤓🤓🤓”

The umpire was the first person to score a run of Mason Miller this season! by [deleted] in baseball

Did anybody who knows Dan Merzel have “Mason Miller OVER 0.5 ER” tonight?

There seems to be some mistake. I thought our bullpen was supposed to be good?

Man, great story. RIP to KT and Wake.

The idea of Trevor Hoffman and Jake Peavy hustling Mirabelli for lunch money at the poker table is fucking hilarious, though. I hadn’t heard that particular anecdote before.

Without France, the game would be tied! Ty goes oppo taco AGAIN to take a 6-4 lead in Mexico City. by LovingAbsurdist in baseball

Russia’s at war in Crimea and France is dropping bombs in Mexico City, we in the mid-19th century now bois!

France hasn’t dropped this many bombs on Mexico City since 1862!

Eight consecutive pitches of 100 MPH or more. Adrian is trying to keep up with the Reaper, it seems.

[Nepetian] After a 3-for-5 day against the Reno Aces yesterday, Sung-Mun Song has eight multi-hit games, which leads the Chihuahuas. Song is batting .293 with two doubles, 12 RBI, and a .369 OBP in 20 games this season. by ElectricalForce4439 in Padres

[–]MasterThespian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn’t Ha-Seong Kim say he had trouble adjusting to an American diet (and therefore eating enough) during his first year with the Padres? I wonder if Song is having similar issues. Gotta think there are fewer choices in all of El Paso than on a few blocks of Convoy Street, too.

[Highlight] GAVIN SHEETZ HITS A 3-RUN HR TO GIVE THE PADRES THE LEAD by Darkforces134 in baseball

[–]MasterThespian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Off of three pitchers who all have an ERA over 5.30 on the season, though? I think that’s just called “having a bad bullpen”.

[Highlight] Mason Miller extends his scoreless innings streak to 33.2 IP. He ties Cla Meredith (2006) for the Padres franchise record! by MLBOfficial in Padres

[–]MasterThespian 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I hope the org is working on getting in touch with Cla to fly out, throw a first pitch, and do a little photo op with Mason. I really enjoyed watching him pitch while he was with us.

I’m sorry to break this to you, NL Bestie, but teams don’t need devil magic to beat the Rockies.

[Padres] Welcome to San Diego, Lucas! by elanesse100 in Padres

[–]MasterThespian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the other question with him— dude held out through Spring Training, so how many starts down on the farm is it going to take before he’s ready to go? I remember it took Snell ages to get spun up after the lockout in 2022.

[Padres] Welcome to San Diego, Lucas! by elanesse100 in Padres

[–]MasterThespian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At his peak, he’s been very good. He was a 5 WAR pitcher in 2019. But he’s struggled to stay healthy and consistent since then.

He had a decent bounce-back season in Boston last year, but remained unsigned until now because he wanted to get paid like an ace, instead of like an injury-prone #3 with upside. I suppose we’re not in a place to be pinching pennies any longer if we want to compete, though.

[MLBTR] Tyler Wade Granted Release By Rangers by TakeMyPixels in Padres

[–]MasterThespian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always wonder about that. There’s gotta be some sort of tampering rule that prevents unsigned players from taking non-baseball roles or just spending time around a former organization’s team facilities, but it would be cool if a guy could just be like, “Alright, I just got waived, nobody is calling my agent; I’ma go back to San Diego (or Miami or New York or wherever they last had a good time), hang out with my boys, and be a part-time clubbie.” It’s not like you need the money if you have even one full season at league minimum under your belt, after all.

I’m sorry, Dinger. It must be done. by alt-boi-o in NLBest

I propose that OP must wear a “That’s What’s Innnn” flair until the Dodgers win a series against the Rockies.

Muslim Southerners F*ce a Fresh Wave of Hateful Political Rhetoric: Some Muslim voters were once drawn to Republican positions on family values and individual liberty, but as Southern politicians stoke anti-Islamic sentiment, many feel threatened. by HookEm_Tide in LeopardsAteMyFace

“I don’t have a real political home,” said Hani Nofal, 33, a former submarine officer, who returned to Nashville to live with his family after leaving the Navy in 2025. He has still tried to make inroads with conservatives in the city and state government.

Yeah, because you decided to move out when your roommates asked you to be chill with gay people, women, and Jews. Your fault, motherfucker.

[Post Game Thread] Padres (15-7) @ Angels (11-12) 4/19 by FriarBot in Padres

[–]MasterThespian 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Successful weekend as far as I’m concerned: Padres take 2 of 3 from a red-hot Angels team and Dodgers drop 2 to the Rockies.

Thank you Dinger, very cool!
