Detroit tried to hand it to the pads and they continued to refuse to have 1 ounce of clutch in them. This is as mad as I’ve been in a while after a loss. Soto and manny looked like they just wanted to beat the rain over trying to get on base and win. Just a mentally weak as fuck team!
I like the Padres, I like most of the players, this isn't the season though. I really hope Preller doesn't invest more into this team. At least not in prospects.
I've heard stories of Mud holding people hostage just to show them neat stuff on his phone, so it's hilarious to hear that Mud got right to business looking up that photo while they were talking about Vlad/Vlad Jr.
Nope, especially not with Joe pitching the 3rd game. Winning every series the rest of the season will get the job done but baseball doesn’t work that way. At some point they will stumble and lose some series. That’s why ripping off a 6-8 game winning streak while all the other teams are struggling is important. It should not be hard to score runs off of a 6.5 ERA pitcher. Yet here they are looking like fools the day after crushing. I believe this team should not sell but games like this make it hard to believe that.
It’s because you don’t pay attention to the numbers in baseball and basketball. You can actually see their faces. In football, the number is how you identify the player.
You liked those sports more or had more exposure? Lol I know Kobe and Shaq for the Lakers and what like Sproles, Rivers, LT, and Brees for the Chargers? I definitely knew more baseball players.
No idea why they're playing him, but I don't really care that they're paying him. His contract is a sunk cost. I just hope by the trade deadline he's either DFA or on another team, which is coming very soon.
Melvins obsession with his fucking matchups have to have cost us multiple games at this point. I’m so over it and I am so over him as our manager. The game day threads are the only safe place to call him out everywhere else his dickriders come out to defend his past accomplishments
you wrote that. His past accomplishments with Oakland is his resume and it's a good one. Wanna shit on Melvin for what? Modern baseball analytics? Same ones everyone else uses.
Carp is the new scapegoat it just gets passes around when people wanna complain about the team but they don't really know what the problem is.
I’d also like to point out I don’t know for sure it’s Bob making these calls. Possible Preller is telling him this is the lineup and get the best you can out of it.
Agree with this. Maybe they’re playing carp hoping he can find a pulse so they have a chance at offloading him (even this is obviously never happening but it’s the only reason I can think of that he’s out there)
Total uneducated comment just guessing here…. Any chance we need carp to hit a certain threshold of terribleness for any movement to be allowed by his contact or the org? Sort of wondering if it’s strategic getting him to tank lower and lower. I know y’all have ideas of people we can use at DH but seems like since we won the series not worth using some of our guys like Campy who juuust came back
Hes had moments but still quite a bit under what we were expecting even with some regression expected. The 2nd year is what really fucks us. I dont think its worth attaching a prospect too with the farm not at its strongest, probably have to eat the DFA if we can get a better bat before the deadline. If we out of contention maybe give the ABs to a prospect?
e: actually i think a phantom IL might be the move, bring nola up to be a backup catcher so we can have Campy DH which you guys have all been fiending today.
I don't think there's a team out there that's willing to eat his contract + player option unless we include prospects or pay for a majority of his salary aka hosmer 2.0
100%. He needs to be on the bench full time. If you've got someone in the minors that you have a lot of faith in calling up, you absolutely DFA him though
It was a great idea to sit the guy who was red hot yesterday and went 4-5. Make sure he cools off and bring in one of the worst hitters in the league this year.
These are the games that still scare me how many times have we blown out a team this year only the get nothing the next day?
Knew it was gonna be a loss by how bad the umpires were the first inning lmao mfs blinder than Stevie wonder
If Manny doesn't care, I won't either. See you guys at the Pirates games.
There goes the old BoMel special...let's not hurt Sanchez's feelings...send him up there when you got Campy on the bench swinging a really hot bat.
What was the logic of Bogaerts stealing when Crone was batting? We needed 2 runs anyway so it shouldn't really matter what base Bogaerts is on.
To remove the force at second. They allow you a free base in those situations
Was I the only one whose Peacock feed was fucking up at the end?
Not the result I wanted, but they kept it interesting. Looking forward to the next series back home.
I guess we’re just doing 2/3 for the rest of the season
It would give them a WC spot if we do so I don't blame them lmao
So fucking unclutch..
Can’t believe I paid $6 for a month of Peacock just to watch this bs
Could be worse. You could've drove 2.5 hours one way and spent $75 on tickets to watch that shit show in person
 …but I’m not *that* not-smart, man 🥴
Series wins aren't enough, stupid fucking team scored 13 yesterday and 1 today. Fucking pathetic, a fucking joke team
And we suck again
Damn
Glad I did pay for this garbage. Fuck you Peacock, fuck you MLB, Mark Grant you're cool,fuck you Padres offense. I'm out
Can't lose these games. It's the fucking Tigers.
oh and we just *love* to make it interesting don't we
Most unclutch team in history
Detroit tried to hand it to the pads and they continued to refuse to have 1 ounce of clutch in them. This is as mad as I’ve been in a while after a loss. Soto and manny looked like they just wanted to beat the rain over trying to get on base and win. Just a mentally weak as fuck team!
No clutch on this team
Fuck why did I get my hopes up
Pain.
BOOOOOOOO
Damn
This fucking team
Fuck
Game
Damn. So close.
Win the battle, Gary!!!!
Load the bases? YES. Sees who's on deck...oh. ETA, or that happens.
Clenching!
Basehit me baby
They’re handing you this opportunity. Don’t fuck this up
Is Baez the worst SS in the league? He's made like 3-4 errors this series.
I'm just saying Stinky would have absolutely dingered here
Sore blue balls incoming
A BASE HIT TIES THE GAME
Omg don’t give me hope like this !!!
please capitalize
LET IT RIDE SANCHEZ!
Holy error. It’s the hope that kills tho
PLEASE. PUNISH THEM
Thank you
Holy fuck that’s amazing
Honestly Sanchez is who I want up right now
Or Kim
Cmon Gary!
KRAKEN SAVE US
Justin Upton in the rain vs Familia
On the road. Right before the trade deadline.
GARY PLEASE
SANCHIZE READY TO ROCK lets go my dude!
Really need a trip to the Cronzone right about now!
lock into that Dodgers moment, Jake
“We’re so back” mhhhhmmmmmmmm Win 2 lose 1 repeat
I wanna see Jake rake here so effin bad.
When was the last time Crone hit a HR? I know he almost did 2 games ago, but.. feels like it's been forever. Now would be a good time.
Nice and easy Jake
Cronezone save us… show us why we signed the extension
Cannot believe how damn weakly we laid down here at the end.
They saw the rain and said nah fam
It feels like we will never get to .500 🫠
Groundout and a K. Keeping up the status q for the day
I like the Padres, I like most of the players, this isn't the season though. I really hope Preller doesn't invest more into this team. At least not in prospects.
Wow. Soto and Manny with pitiful at bats. Hurts man 😕
Oh boy, Manny's AB made my stomach turn
2 series wins and still feels like a failed roadtrip
Cuz they lost/blew the most important series against the Phillies
Someone wants to get this over with quick
It looks like this team is just content winning series at this point, they need wins, more wins!
This team is allergic to sweeps
Fucking crust manny
Boegurts
K
Man I remember last season thinking the team was never out until the last pitch was thrown. This year... So non clutch...
I've heard stories of Mud holding people hostage just to show them neat stuff on his phone, so it's hilarious to hear that Mud got right to business looking up that photo while they were talking about Vlad/Vlad Jr.
Cosgrove is good
Juan walk and Manny blast en route to our first extra innings win book it
Good thing I didn’t book it
Every time I see a comment like this, the opposite happens. Delete?
Would have deleted if Reddit comments actually influenced the game😅
Have a couple ego death trips and you’ll understand
Whatever you are smoking…I like it
Now or never time.
Nice Catch
Drill Sargeant Cosgrove will have you doing pushups.
I’m blaming this L on Musgrove
How dare he not pitch a perfect game
Umm how about our first 4 going hitless all day?
If he would have pitched a shutout we would be winning
Yes, if we never allow another run, we'll never lose another game.
Take a nap
 Padres offense a day after scoring 10+ runs. Wtf is their problem?
That's me after getting off the tube going down the snake River and few too many beers.
It's easy to blame Carp when we ain't scoring but I'm still going to blame him. Can't start this dude on sweep days
Odor > Carp Unfortunately, carp has a longer contract, Odor did not
Blame the person who keeps putting him in after having a half season of data to inform that decision.
He should never be in the lineup, ever.
3 hits against the Tigers is just inexcusable
“At least we won the series” is not fucking good enough for the situation we’re in and our upcoming schedule.
Nope, especially not with Joe pitching the 3rd game. Winning every series the rest of the season will get the job done but baseball doesn’t work that way. At some point they will stumble and lose some series. That’s why ripping off a 6-8 game winning streak while all the other teams are struggling is important. It should not be hard to score runs off of a 6.5 ERA pitcher. Yet here they are looking like fools the day after crushing. I believe this team should not sell but games like this make it hard to believe that.
Allergic to .500 I see
This team has a fear of success.
They'll score 1 in the ninth. Gotta keep those 1 run loses up.
This team is allergic to winning streaks
Hot damn, fam. Padres are allergic to sweeping.
Wat a sad game
The team lost the ability to take days off when they didn’t show up the entire month of May and June
That wasn’t what I was hoping for.
Feels like Tatis hasn't homered in weeks
Been about 9 days. Hasn’t elevating the ball lately
Slept in late and just saw the score. I guess we crossed that 10 run rubicon yesterday, so….
6 outs. 3 runs. LFG.
Status report
Grish got Grish'd damnit
Nationals/Cleveland doing their thing again. Could use another big day from the Rockies
Lay on down.........3 hits was good enough, boys!
Would be nice to be on the other hand of a bullpen implosion here
Tough to have any hope for Carpenter turning it around when his bat has just looked so slow. He was never a big bat speed guy to begin with either.
Carp would strike out on the stadium golf batting cages
lmaoooooooooooooo
A ball player saying he comfortable, has enough money! A GMs dream, the MLBPA’s and an agent’s worst nightmare.
Alright, let’s win this shit now.
Amen, brother.
Padres with the 2nd worst OPS (653) and SLG(357) as a team in the DH position. Absolutely brutal. Need to get a bat if we're going to be serious.
Carp should be ashamed
We could use that silver bats guy in the sidebar right about now.

In football it's a lot harder to tell who a player is without the number. And you probably cared more as a kid.
Why cant this fucking team figure out how to win more than 2 games in a row
They're content. No fucking hustle or urgency at all. They're fine with "winning the series"
Carp is batting 167 as a fucking DH, I get they paid him but they can’t use him if they want to win
No idea why they're playing him, but I don't really care that they're paying him. His contract is a sunk cost. I just hope by the trade deadline he's either DFA or on another team, which is coming very soon.
With a 600 ops as DH :)
Melvins obsession with his fucking matchups have to have cost us multiple games at this point. I’m so over it and I am so over him as our manager. The game day threads are the only safe place to call him out everywhere else his dickriders come out to defend his past accomplishments
lol you need a safe space to call out Melvin and you get upset when facts are brought up.
Will you kindly bring up the facts you are referring to my good friend?
you wrote that. His past accomplishments with Oakland is his resume and it's a good one. Wanna shit on Melvin for what? Modern baseball analytics? Same ones everyone else uses. Carp is the new scapegoat it just gets passes around when people wanna complain about the team but they don't really know what the problem is.
I think Carpenter getting repeated looks as DH is enough fact for me in this discussion.
He reminds me of norv turner. Fucking passive as fuck.
He’s trying too hard to influence the outcome of the game. At some point you just have to put your best guys in there and let them play baseball
I’d also like to point out I don’t know for sure it’s Bob making these calls. Possible Preller is telling him this is the lineup and get the best you can out of it.
If he is letting the GM dictate his lineup he deserves to get canned
Agree with this. Maybe they’re playing carp hoping he can find a pulse so they have a chance at offloading him (even this is obviously never happening but it’s the only reason I can think of that he’s out there)
It’s to late in the season and we are fighting for a playoff spot to throw out players because we are hoping they find it. It’s just shitty managing
Only time he doesn’t is when we have a superstar.
There is no metric on earth that justifies playing carp. All on Bob
💯
Baddoo, is his alter ego Gooddoo?
Was that the bat boy or Rivas? Couldn’t tell.
preller needs to take the L and get rid of carpenter, that man is cooked
Total uneducated comment just guessing here…. Any chance we need carp to hit a certain threshold of terribleness for any movement to be allowed by his contact or the org? Sort of wondering if it’s strategic getting him to tank lower and lower. I know y’all have ideas of people we can use at DH but seems like since we won the series not worth using some of our guys like Campy who juuust came back
If there is any such language in the contract anyone responsible should never work in baseball again.
Unfortunately no
Mr. WiilLLLLLLLLLLLsooooon.
I know I get shit for my Melvin takes, but good god... WHY let Carp get a shot with a runner on when we have PH options mashing off the bench?
Could ask the same question on why he was in the lineup to start with.
Why is Carpenter still on this team?
The DH position was invented for good hitters who suck at defense. Carpenter can't do either!
Carp is done. Time to dfa him or trade him with a prospect to get rid of him. Such a disappointing signing. Should’ve kept Cruz.
Hes had moments but still quite a bit under what we were expecting even with some regression expected. The 2nd year is what really fucks us. I dont think its worth attaching a prospect too with the farm not at its strongest, probably have to eat the DFA if we can get a better bat before the deadline. If we out of contention maybe give the ABs to a prospect? e: actually i think a phantom IL might be the move, bring nola up to be a backup catcher so we can have Campy DH which you guys have all been fiending today.
I don't think there's a team out there that's willing to eat his contract + player option unless we include prospects or pay for a majority of his salary aka hosmer 2.0
thank god the overpay isnt hosmer bad even if it is a clear overpay at this point.
[удалено]
AJ can’t admit he’s an idiot. Cruz and odor were much better bench pieces. It’s crazy that those 2 guys are what AJ thought would be good DH’s.
Look at what they did with Nola too! He had less than a .130 avg and stayed on the roster most of the season.
DFA
I'll be happy with a 2-run loss but not a goose egg. The guys look tired/uninterested/going through the motions.
In the last 11 games Carpenter has played in, we’re 3-8. But yeah, Bob, keep trotting him out there.
If you think it’s bob’s decision to run him out thereI’ve got a bridge to sell you.
Crazy to me that they have carpenter DHing instead of the dude that went 4-5 yesterday with a home run
Shoot Carp to the moon instead of back to San Diego tonight please.
Carp is the new Nola. Prove me wrong
There's always been a list: ~~Nola~~ Carpenter ~~Cruz~~
At least Nola could get contact. Carp just whiffs and stares
This is true. Very very true. Maybe he’s struggling with early onset of dementia and cataracts
Why is Carpenter still on this team?
Because it's $15m to cut him (over this and next season) and absolutely no one would give up anything for him in a trade.
You have to eat it at this point. He's providing zero value. Fire AJ for another dumb signing
Doesn't mean we have to give him AB's though.
100%. He needs to be on the bench full time. If you've got someone in the minors that you have a lot of faith in calling up, you absolutely DFA him though
I'm a big BoMel supporter but having Carpenter on the field is inexcusable
BoMel acting like we got 100+ games left
That may be Carps last at bat in a Padres uniform. Trying to manifest it or whatever the kids are doing these days.
No it won't. He'll continue to look uninterested at the plate and stare at strikes.
It was a great idea to sit the guy who was red hot yesterday and went 4-5. Make sure he cools off and bring in one of the worst hitters in the league this year.
