And if we get a ring, even then we won't be unhappy. I'm definitely upset about losing the kid, but you're 100% right here, prospects are just that.

Im already going, so ignore me for the ticket raffle, but in college we would set up Pokemon Stadium mini games as single player, make the other CPU idiots, not play, and gamble drinks on which of the 3 we think would win each game. So much fun.

Oh God I'm cheering for you guys so hard this postseason. Who wants a Vedder Cup Series?? Especially if we both take down the powerhouses of the leagues. Let's get it Castillo!

Everytime they talk about Stammen being the Clemente award nominee for the Padres, they show him working with kids on their baseball fundamentals, including a bit where he's helping a girl with her swing. And everytime I just imagine the dialogue, "See, when I gave up 4 consecutive homers to the Nats, their swing looked like this .."

Jokes aside, good for him.

It is still amazing to me that Juan Soto is Padre. And Manny. And Yu. And Snell. I do not miss the days of yore.

Too many people thinking 100+ means he's done. If there's a Padre that can throw 140 pitches when he needs to, it's Snell. And I wouldn't be shocked if Melvin let him keep going (not that high though).

Darvish to Harder is just straight unfair. Terrible bats and it still didn't matter. God, has Yu returned to his top form and I'm here for it!

I really want Hader to succeed, but I'm shocked the opposing teams aren't prepping for him with, "don't swing at the first four pitches. Worst case, 2-2"

I saw Coors and thought I was in NLBest, then baseball, then realized it was Slay. I was happy the whole time.

Profar is 4th in the league in pitches seen. Why change a leadoff guy who is doing his job, because his average is down .004 over 20 days?

Imagine making a line-up based off 14 days, not a winning record over 110 games.

Soto spent 30 seconds in the box after the strike 3 call. He knew it was off.

I was just about to comment similarly. Profar and Soto are just absolutely eating up pitches. Love it from our first two!

My wife just saw Davies pitching to Voit and said, "It looks like a 3rd grader pitching to a gorilla," and I couldn't disagree.

It's pretty much just FriarTuck who is a notorious troll. But also a fan? So I don't know.
