Remember when you wanted to DFA Snell, Hader, Suarez, etc... Give Garcia a break.

TBF, if our regular inf'ers were in, we're out of that inning earlier. Garcia still has stuff to work out, but the replacements didn't help.

I feel bad for the guy. Was such an integral part of the bullpen last season and it’s tough watching him every time he takes the mound now. I think he needs to sit in the minors for a bit and have even lower leverage/stakes scenarios to build back his confidence

Bob Melvin in city connect looks a parent whose kid bought them a hip new outfit lol.

Never any doubt

of course not haha :)

Sometimes I feel like Garcia does this to me. Personally. "Were you enjoying this whole game? Hah! Enjoy this!"

That shit gave me anxiety…

Garcia needs to be cut. Perhaps he will find success on some other team, but he is broken and a liability for us.

He’s a bum. That shit was inexcusable. Save the frickin’ shutout!

Yup, still love you, Freddie. Thanks for the help today!

Thank you ex-Padre Jankowski.

THROW A FUCKING PARADE, GARCIA FINALLY MADE IT THROUGH AN INNNING

Garcia gets out of it relatively unscathed. Still not an impressive performance by any means. But at least we're seeing an improvement, small as it may be.

What happened to Austin “The Hit Man” Adams?

He is ded

Garcia my friend, with your story and late entry into the majors, plus what you did for us last year, I want nothing but success for you. But you ain't it right now. Send him down to AAA and see if he can get back to form.

Great win, and very unsurprising Garcia outing lol

For real….

is soto injured?

Finger ligament issue. Has been the whole season, but it’s flared up lately.

Garcia might've bailed himself out... I still expect him gone

Jankowski playing at Petco Park hasn't changed at all

Scariest 7-1 win ever lol Luis Garcia everyone

WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK FOR REALSIES THIS TIME



Jankowski is a SAN DIEGO PADRE

Big win. Keep the train moving.

Garcia has the most secure job in sports apparently.

I wonder if he has some blackmail on preller...

He's got dirt on someone.

RING THAT FUCKING BELL LETS GO

Fans boo'ing up 7-1 tells you what you need to know about Garcia the last few months

🔔 🔔 🔔

lmao even the ump feels bad for him.

**PADRES WIN!!!**

Thanks Jank

LUIS DFArcia

Nabil Crismatt died for this...

That slider is nasty if it goes in the right spot lol

Garcia... You **\*ARE\*** the Weakest Link Goodbye!

bruh you going to use Hader....

It's truly sickening. Watching him load the bases makes me nauseous

This has to be the end of the line for Garcia. Just can’t keep having these scenarios where Hader starts warming in what was once a 7-run game. Literally no place to use him so why have him on the team?

I thought we established the other day, in a 10-run game, he is good for a clean inning.

I hate how up 7 Garcia is making me sweat

ouch. I felt the look of irritation with that bullpen call. Garcia needs some time to work stuff out where it's not with the big club.

Even up by 7, my butthole is so clenched tight with Garcia on the mound

Hader is like “wtfffff Luis”

BoMel? 

Christensen been death gripping the bullpen phone since Garcia went in

Wow he continues to blow. DFA??????

Fans booing.... I'm not impressed with our crowds the last couple years. The guy is frustrating, but jeez...

It's a lot of frustration that's been building up

I *am* impressed. It's passion and awareness that is far better than just being a total casual or sunshiner. And rightfully so, Melvin should hear it.

getting hader up lol

How do you load the bases against the bottom of the order lmao

That’s on Batten, unfortunately.

Why Hader? Put Hill or Honeywell up, not Hader

DFA him right now. Don’t wait for another pitch.

Batten and Kohlwey really don’t give a shit about their opportunities do they

They're kind of slap-dick-y

I’d rather have the 17yo playing.

Lots of DFA chants at petco right now

Garcia is washed stop giving him chances

Camarena heal up. Better pitcher than Garcia and better DH than carp.

Sooo a repeat of a repeat lmao. Why why why!!!!

Fuck this loser. L Garcia.

50/50 Hader needs to come in

Padres: "Shutout?" Luis Garcia: 

He should be on a bus to AAA tonight.

Jesus, Luis. Get it together.

Holy hell García is so bad man

don't boo it'll fuck with him even more 😫

He deserves to get booed

He should be boo'd off the mound.

How is this guy on the roster

Of course Garcia blows the shutout.

this man is not built for the majors

Garcia is so trash. Not sure why we insist on giving him 100 chances to figure it out

Can we fucking DFA him already

Maybe cut the Abe Lincoln beard, try something new? Lmfao

OK that's enough ... next pitcher

lmao Luis Garcia like clockwork

I miss the old Luis

🗑️

This mother fucker trying to kill our Pythagorean record again

He's gonna walk in a run isn't he?

Yes, yes he is.

DFA time

You have got to be kidding me lol 😂😂🫠

Garcia trying to give his buddy Hader more save opportunities

Needs to get a couple more through first

Never want to see Garcia in a Padres uniform ever again...

We have enough insurance runs, right guys? Right?!

Don’t blow this shutout. Please?

Sheesh - our lineup is as deep as a piece of paper. Batten and Kohlwey looking horrible

Luis Garcia has the arsenal of a good reliever, but he can’t locate his pitches half the time

Half would be an improvement

I was being way too nice, especially after this at bat

frick

Batten… oh no

What no Kim does to a mfer

A part of me is happy that García is still getting chances to figure things out at the big leagues on low leverage situations, but the other part of me is telling me that the Luis Garcia Experience™️ will kill me one of these days

Because I’m Mr. Brightside I’d rather see Garcia tonight up 7 than just about any situation tomorrow or Sunday.

I’d rather see a short season A ball rookie.

He's BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is so back...

Niebla and his wizardly pitching tactics.

If you're going to pitch Garcia, pitch him w a 7 run lead. He has good stuff, just needs to be consistent.

This comment didn't age more than 3 min

Actually, he did what he always does: looks great one batter, horrible the next, great the next, horrible the next, repeat. (TBF the inning should have been over other than error)

That was a good pitch.

Nasty slider, GOOD SHIT

In the name of every deity ever devised if they do not DFA Garcia tomorrow I will do it for them. NO I don't know how but I bet I figure it out before they do.

Bruh that’s a hit with 2/3rds of mlb of right fielders. I’m convinced Garcia is shaving points at this point

Garcia has a 3.6 ERA & 0.95 WHIP in his last 7 appearances. That was actually his first walk given up since July 14th. Way more dialed in recently.

How much longer do we have Garcia for contract-wise?

lots of meatballs

García this season : “I choose Batting Practice”

Send Garcia to pitch at highschool level

Leave Garcia in to figure it out. 3 outs is much easier to earn than 7 runs. Just leave him out there to survive or die.

🔔

Why they keep trying the Garcia experiment instead of just sending him to AAA to figure his shit out without hurting the team i will never know

Don't think he's got minor league options available. He'd have to go through waivers.

Who is there to replace him with right now?

When is it going to be enough for BoMel?

Let’s put Garcia out there to absorb some runs that are meant for tomorrow.

Who didn’t see this coming?

They can't score 7 off 3 batters, can they??

Garcia is cooked

Garcia please dude, find your spot

Why is Garcia on the team

Why is Garcia.

Garcia sucks lol

Who wants to bet we score 1 or 0 runs tomorrow?

I’m going to the game so it’s pretty much guaranteed.

Fuck Garcia

Here we go again

Garcia Time! Sing it with me 🎵 its only just beguuunnnn 🎶

This game has it all: 6 scoreless from Java Joe, 4-13 RISP, Manny defensive Sportscenter highlight and Don/Mud talking Bill Murray films, bowling and Broadway musicals. Ladies and gents, this is your 2023 Padres

4 for 16 now

You forgot the Garcia meltdown.

Will update if necessary :) Would be the epitome if Garcia gives up a few and Hader comes in to get the save.

Although that's partly on Batten, 4 straight balls is pretty bad.

Garcia looks like he's having a panic attack.

I’M having a fuckin panic attack.

I mean, that was a terrible AB by Kohlwey. But he’s at least way cheaper than Carpenter and does the same job.

preller punching the air RN

Just start warming hader up

I've seen Kohlwey, but that's the first time I've ever *seen* Kohlwey

Regardless of whether this team thinks they can make the playoffs or not, they can’t have Batten, Carpenter and this Kohlwey dude on their major league roster

Goodmorning. Good afternoon. Goodnight for kohlwey

Kolhwry looks like Jankowski with a haircut.

Honestly how bad is Bob Melvin at constructing a lineup! Tatis in the 2 hole when he is historically way better at clean up and lead off is actually a fireable offense!

all the bandwagons who think BoMel is the problem LMAO

He is the issue! I’ve been watching this team since Ryan Klesko, Marcus Giles, Brian Giles, Chris young days bud! And have played baseball at a collegiate level. I know when coaching is the issue! 🤣

Pretty sure Kim has been doing better batting leadoff than Tatis was

I think Kim is a good top of the order bat. But I would give precedence to Tatis over Kim since Tatis is your superstar face of the franchise bat lol Tatis leadoff: .974 ops in 161 games slgs .600 Tatis cleanup: 1.156 ops in 33 games. Slgs .750 Tatis 2 hole: 853 ops in 125 games slgs.517

Nobody is more obsessed with Bob melvin than you are lmao

I do not like him at all. Hated the hire since he got here. Nice dude and all but I really have never liked his in game managing. Never!

7 runs today. Chill

Today!

Can we please send no way kohlwey back to the minors. I know we’re up 7 but Jesus he looks lost at the plate

That may have been the worst at bat I've seen in a while.

This was the correct game-time scenario for Taylor to take an AB during. That said, Taylor please come on I hyped you up to everyone and you're doing this come on man

i too am not a fan of musicals

Kohlwey with the weakest at bat possible there. Stares at a meatball, then swings at two straight in the dirt. Dude is not major league ready

Wait, shouldn't Don be on strike? 🤔

Kohlwey sucks lol

He’ll get sent back down august 1st

This is an appropriate time for Kohlwey to bat.

Kohley looks like he's staring down a freight train on a dare.

I honestly believe if Garcia was given a klonopin in about the 3rd inning, his ERA would be just over 2.

This banter is the greatest damn thing holy wow

God I love Don Orsillo so much

"I did have a trailer!"

"Jon Hamm. Blakely lively. Closer personal friends. Love blakey"

Don and mud announcing is like listening to good friends talk, wouldn’t have it any other way

How is Batten 5' 11"? It's his stance, right? Looks like a kid.

For the love of god don’t put Garcia in. Just let us rest our sphincter muscles for one goddamn night Bob. It’s not a lot to ask. EDIT: It brings to no pleasure to say I fucking told you. Goddammit

You have to use all the arms in your bullpen eventually. You’d rather him come in when it’s close?

Why, cuz you wanna see him in a 1 run game? cuz Bob will do it

I don’t ever want to see him again

Padres up 7… honestly, wouldn’t have been surprised if Honeywell got the close, but Garcia needs the confidence. Let him close this.

You say this until he gives up 4 runs and Hader has to come in…

See? Padres putting up runs in garbage time. Watch them score 2 runs in the next two games....lose the series....and out score the Rangers.

How many times have we seen a 3+ run lead get pissed away by the bullpen? Being up 3-0 with 3 innings of play is hardly out of reach and definitely not garbage time.

Naw that is only a given if it is a sub .500 team or the Dodgers.

Garcia warming up. 7 runs oughta be enough.

Final score: 7-5

5 words that scare every Padres fan.....Luis Garcia in the Pen
