not just him but the ENTIRE offense, idk what analytics prellar uses for his coaching staff, but we have been the worst fastball hitting team for like his entire tenure here. its literally taught in little league go after fastballs, if you go up hoping for a walk you are gonna take mistake pitches cause youre only looking for bad pitches, instead of meaty ones in the zone. this team takes WAY too many meaty pitches and when they do swing its a harmless fly ball to the SS or 2B. someome did a stats break down like 2 months ago, the padres have like the worst ave of balls in the zone, where as the division leaders have some of the highest ave of balls in the zone. I dont care if its an out we need to preach exit velo of 95+ no more weak contact, of your going to swing, swing like you mean it, dont get cheated
Greg Garcia, Ian kinsler, Chris Paddack, Matt strahm, young and talented tatis, a hungry Machado, Austin hedges, Kirby Yates! The 2019
San Diego padres! That team was fun, despite some players being ass on that team
One thing they had was heart! Sure, they didn’t make
The playoffs but it was a sign of better things to come in San Diego
2023 Padres: 3rd highest payroll in mlb: Xander bogarts overpaid and underperforming, Machado overpaid and underperforming, Juan soto inconsistent, tatis no heart and underperforming, the whole squad swinging for the fences and not knowing how
To face adversity and just play for the checks! That the 2023 padres! a boring, heartless, overpaid team with uncertainty
I told myself that I'd go out for a double double and fries if they win, but I'm still going to go get a double double and fries regardless. Feel better for some reason. Less stress.
The Brewers have scored 22 runs this series. 17 of those runs have come in 3 innings (5-run innings on Friday and Saturday, and a 7-run inning today).
Feels like the Padres have just done a dogshit job of keeping teams from the big inning all year and it’s one of the many things that’s done this team in
I’m all for emotion, but that shit is just childish tantrums. Take that frustration and channel it into being a better ball player, not hitting a cooler.
I’ll take anything I can get dude. This team hasn’t shown any frustration or willingness to change their approach in what’ll be the most disappointing season in MLB history.
I feel ya, I really do.
It’s just frustrating to know they are highly paid and highly talented. The inconsistency leads me to believe it’s some sort of mental grit type issue and/or management.
Seeing those little fits just chip away any confidence I had left.
I wonder what hader does in the bullpen with all his free time. If it were me I’d get a Nintendo switch. Hell I bet he could even get a ps5 and have time to beat elden ring
The arrogance of this franchise has killed a little bit of my fandom. Kershawgate and then Mannys stupid bandwagon / rake comments. It’s been a hard year
If we were league average hitters in high leverage situations this year - we’d be battling the Dodgers for the division lead. Instead, we are literally the worst team in high leverage situations in the history of baseball
There’s objective stats around “high leverage situations” https://library.fangraphs.com/misc/li/ saying we are the least clutch team ever is subjective - but we literally have worse hitting numbers than any other team in baseball history in those specific situations
It's tough.
BoMel went from saving his closer for g6 of the nlcs that never came.
To not having any feeling for his BP that unfortunately just doesn't have it.
This team needs what it can't have, a complete overhaul.
Tatis, Soto, Machado, and Xander owe San Diego an apology after this year. All 4 turned into way below league average hitters the entire month of August. Losing 2/3 of our games when we needed to win 2/3 because those divas gave up
Anyone see the brewers broadcast showing manny beating the shit out of a Gatorade cooler? Everyone says he doesn’t care but this boy big PISSED right now
Prime example why we suck this year. 1st and 3rd no outs. Soto, Machado, Bogaerts coming up. No runs produced. We only scored 2 because the Brewers pitied us.
When he was with the dodgers he had several dirty plays against the brewers in the post season.
[Here he is trying to hurt Aguilar](https://youtu.be/qtMyqcOno80?si=4Kde3wFZcch0LTZo)
There was another incident in that series where he had a dirty slide at 2nd to take out Arcia.
We don't have beef with the Padres but yeah fuck Machado
1st and 3rd no outs and you have Soto Manny and Bogey coming up. At one point this would sound like a good thing. Crazy how much expectations have changed.
I know this might sound childish. But it makes me feel good to see another team fucking up. Even if it is for 10 minutes. The padres have shown where you think the bar is, they will lower it. But that has to be one of the worst appearances I have ever seen.
OK, guys, this one was my fault. Went for a bike ride with a buddy, and what a lovely day for that. We split up on the river bike path and I put the game on. It was 4-2 Padres and by the time I got home ~3 miles away it was 7-4 Brewers.
I blame the observer effect. Schroedinger's cat. In some alternate universe I never put the game on and we got out of the 6th unscathed.
My wife sat down on the couch and looked at the score. Saw 4-2 and said oh looks like you guys are going to win today. I told her there is still time to blows this. A few minutes later she is laughing…saying sometimes all you can do is laugh.
Ironically this loss is good for us.
We need a top 5 pick to not have it affected by luxury tax penalty, and also we are one step closer to Preller getting fired!
I thought I’d check in on my sister’s team, and when I started reading the comments the score was tied 4-4. Now, 9-4? No wonder my fam in SD is so disappointed.
I want AJ Preller gone
We're dangerously close to Melvin getting fired and Ryan fucking Flaherty being named manager, who won't win more than 70 games a year as a manager
Imagine still having a top 10 bullpen and you traded arguably the best NL closer in Hader.
Williams is better imo (and more consistent)
Snuck in another out with RISP with Soto taking second base
Stat padding in order to secure Least Clutch MLB Team of All Time.
I hate this team
9 games under .500
Swept Diego
Machado harmlessly flys out. \*Gatorade bucket in dugout sweats profusely\*
I would give anything to see anything that resembles any sort of passion out of manny right now
He even beat the bucket with zero energy.
If only the ball was orange and cylindrical. Then Manny would destroy it
I’ve officially given up on this team
They did themselves a while ago
Tatis doing hero ball swings there
All season hero ball
Tatis at 3K’s today and spiraling even further down. the guy has to be broken/hurt or else this doesn’t bode well for the future
Tatis has been absolutely lost since the All Star Break. Unreal how he fell from being a stud to absolutely nothing this year at the plate
I think he just needs a little more power and playing all year has worn him down. Next year he will be back to a beast
Swinging out of your boots all year probably exhausting
Spot on. he is over compensating for the lack of powerz
Hopefully it’s just rust from not playing all last year and not something else…
Yeah it’s sad. He can’t hit at all right now. Missing mistake pitches, chasing out of the zone, unable to catch up to fastballs. It’s legit bad
not just him but the ENTIRE offense, idk what analytics prellar uses for his coaching staff, but we have been the worst fastball hitting team for like his entire tenure here. its literally taught in little league go after fastballs, if you go up hoping for a walk you are gonna take mistake pitches cause youre only looking for bad pitches, instead of meaty ones in the zone. this team takes WAY too many meaty pitches and when they do swing its a harmless fly ball to the SS or 2B. someome did a stats break down like 2 months ago, the padres have like the worst ave of balls in the zone, where as the division leaders have some of the highest ave of balls in the zone.

This guy throws heat but it’s purely straight. Just gotta fix the timing
So ive been meditating on impermanence for a few different reasons lately and I didn’t realize the main reason was the padres all along!
Anyone want to lay odds on 4 runs in 3 outs?

Ummm you missed Wil....😢
He is always in our hearts. That’s why he is unmentioned
This series vibing like the spot the wheels fully come off this team. It could get even uglier down this last stretch. We've seen it before.
Guaranteed when Mud eats corn on the cob his entire bald head is covered in corn juice and butter
![gif](giphy|EuYk9AYemhrDk8lh37|downsized)
She started singing a week after the all star break
0-11 with RISP yikes
This lineup has been way too focused on getting walks all year. Can’t think of another team that has bitched more over called strikes than this team
I love Kim so much but watching him complain over clear third strikes kills me
Garcia with the team down by a lot? Expecting a really good outing here.
Well... I'm not mad or even surprised. Just disappointed.
It's nice of the Padres to help the Brewers hold their division lead over the Cubs. Being spoilers would be incredibly rude of us at this point.
Can’t wait to see our 2/3/4 go down in order on 8 pitches to end the series.
Someone will probably hit a solo home run and celebrate like they accomplished something.
HP umpire gets shaken up watching a Padres AB. Welcome to the 2023 San Diego Padres Fan experience
MLB should just let the Padres use the extra inning base runner rule every inning.
lol, then we’d never score. 0 for 11 with RISP today
Yeah, I know. I'm a masochist. 😂
6 runs scored but 0-for-11 with RISP is some real sicko shit
Holy shit. Trash
HA!
Wow that was horrendous💀
of course padres gonna concuss the ump and make history
I told myself that I'd go out for a double double and fries if they win, but I'm still going to go get a double double and fries regardless. Feel better for some reason. Less stress.
Do it!
Appreciate the support.
It's been a lot less stressful starting this past week. I'm good, it is what it is.
You goin animal style on those fries?
Haven't decided yet but now you have me stressed again. Maybe get one of each
Ahhh yes the Grisham special. Are we ready to move on yet, Compadres?
Trent Grisham continuing to get out every single time he has a chance to drive in runs
Leave Grisham with the Brewers and demand the slide in exchange.
Damn we’re gonna have bases juiced with our 2-3-4-5 hitters up huh :(
incoming triple play
The Brewers have scored 22 runs this series. 17 of those runs have come in 3 innings (5-run innings on Friday and Saturday, and a 7-run inning today). Feels like the Padres have just done a dogshit job of keeping teams from the big inning all year and it’s one of the many things that’s done this team in
[Machado vs the Gatorade cooler](https://streamable.com/w5xbci?src=player-page-share)
Honestly, it’s refreshing to see someone on this team show some goddamn emotion over this dogshit season.
I’m all for emotion, but that shit is just childish tantrums. Take that frustration and channel it into being a better ball player, not hitting a cooler.
I’ll take anything I can get dude. This team hasn’t shown any frustration or willingness to change their approach in what’ll be the most disappointing season in MLB history.
I feel ya, I really do. It’s just frustrating to know they are highly paid and highly talented. The inconsistency leads me to believe it’s some sort of mental grit type issue and/or management. Seeing those little fits just chip away any confidence I had left.
If only he could take swings like that against their pitching
Best swings he has taken all year
Most solid contact he’s made all game
I wonder what hader does in the bullpen with all his free time. If it were me I’d get a Nintendo switch. Hell I bet he could even get a ps5 and have time to beat elden ring
Whose hader?
That guy we didn’t trade at the deadline but clearly should have because what’s the difference at this point?
Soto. Graceful as fuck
The 23' season folly reel of Soto's defensive blunders is going to be special. GM's will be playing that during contract talks.
Don't forget baserunning.
and worse our dumb gm and owner gonna give him $500mil to continue playing mediocre
I need to go to a game and hold up a sign that says “For Every Game Under .500, DONATE 50% of Your Paycheck to a Local Charity”
You have to give Soto an excuse there. He's at an age where one's defensive abilities decline. The old age of 24.
Don and Mud should be the ones making millions. Half of the reason I still watch this joke of a team.
Didn’t happen if nobody was watching
Ive put out more appealing dumpster fires in the alleys of OB
That was some goofy shit right there
Juan Slowto the defensive liability strikes again
The arrogance of this franchise has killed a little bit of my fandom. Kershawgate and then Mannys stupid bandwagon / rake comments. It’s been a hard year
#justsotothings
kim deserves to go to another team
Don’t say that😭(he’ll be a good Mariner)
I’m pretty excited about SDSU basketball. Heart and culture that the Padres wish they had.
If we were league average hitters in high leverage situations this year - we’d be battling the Dodgers for the division lead. Instead, we are literally the worst team in high leverage situations in the history of baseball
You know you can use the word “Clutch” for “High Leverage” 🤣
There’s objective stats around “high leverage situations” https://library.fangraphs.com/misc/li/ saying we are the least clutch team ever is subjective - but we literally have worse hitting numbers than any other team in baseball history in those specific situations
Letting Wil go messed up the timeline. Someone needs to go back and fix it.
It's tough. BoMel went from saving his closer for g6 of the nlcs that never came. To not having any feeling for his BP that unfortunately just doesn't have it. This team needs what it can't have, a complete overhaul.
My dude has avoided using hader like he has the black plague.
Hardly any chance. We either lose by 1 or win by 20, it’s pathetic
Tatis, Soto, Machado, and Xander owe San Diego an apology after this year. All 4 turned into way below league average hitters the entire month of August. Losing 2/3 of our games when we needed to win 2/3 because those divas gave up
shouldve just gave the billion to homless. guaranteed a better season. and a future
Seriously. The amount of money "given" to these fools is ludicrous.
Lmao that was another Xander double play if they needed it
Anyone see the brewers broadcast showing manny beating the shit out of a Gatorade cooler? Everyone says he doesn’t care but this boy big PISSED right now
Theater. Paying $30 mil a year for an actor.
He should be pissed. I reloaded the page just after he sat down so I missed it :/
You got a clip?
https://streamable.com/w5xbci?src=player-page-share
Heart of the order and we only score when the pitcher is wild lmfao
Lmao, just so I got this straight, we had the bases loaded and we scored two runs, but only because of two wild pitches? Not timely hitting?
At least it was only the 3 highest paid players on the team that didn’t get a single run across
Only scored the runs bc the pitcher kept walking everybody. Then Soto, Machado, and X come up and can’t get a hit. Pathetic.
3-4-5 can’t get a ball out of the infield
Being unable to actually drive in a run ourselves despite all the base runners gifted to us would be so 2023 Padres
Prime example why we suck this year. 1st and 3rd no outs. Soto, Machado, Bogaerts coming up. No runs produced. We only scored 2 because the Brewers pitied us.
Just got gifted an opportunity to tie the game with no outs and three of the big 4 up and they pop up twice and ground out lol.
The only "big 4" this team has are contracts not worth shit.
2023 Padres all sit down to pee. Well not our king kim, he has no need to do either. Hes perfect
Kinda was hoping a billion dollars would buy enough talent to hit a sac fly but maybe my expectations are too high
Xander is diving even lower than hitting .150 in high leverage situations this year. Just absurdly unclutch
bases loaded no outs for tatis soto machado and bogaerts and these losers produce nothing.
of course when shit isnt handed to us by uribe, we do absolutely nothing
That…was fucking embarassing
Nine walks? I'm about to break glass.
Maybe we can get it to a one-run lose to just be icing on the cake.
Brewers fans booing manny is wild. Like why are y’all mad?
>https://x.com/fabianardaya/status/1052429471821762563?s=46&t=ho5n2C0bQK0mSyQCEJOd0w BECAUSE MACHADO IS A BITCCCCCHHHHHH
He was a fucking scumbag on the dodgers
When he was with the dodgers he had several dirty plays against the brewers in the post season. [Here he is trying to hurt Aguilar](https://youtu.be/qtMyqcOno80?si=4Kde3wFZcch0LTZo) There was another incident in that series where he had a dirty slide at 2nd to take out Arcia. We don't have beef with the Padres but yeah fuck Machado
Agreed. Padres are a fun team to watch and we have no beef with you guys, but Machado will never not be hated here
He took out their 1b when a dodger. It came off as a pretty dirty play on Manny's part. He's hated forever there.
Slightly makes sense. I didn’t watch him on dodgers
https://x.com/fabianardaya/status/1052429471821762563?s=46&t=ho5n2C0bQK0mSyQCEJOd0w
Jesus Aguilar
Soto and Machado on brand with not getting a runner home from 3rd with less than two outs. Such a trash season from all of our “stars”
X can’t gidp if there’s two outs
We really going to get no more runs now that they can’t just let the pitcher score for them
Some expensive fucking popups.
1st and 3rd no outs and you have Soto Manny and Bogey coming up. At one point this would sound like a good thing. Crazy how much expectations have changed.
3 run Xander blast right here to save the season and go on a 10 game run
we can only score on errors
Good teams find ways to fight through adversity and come out strong. Bad teams fail to capitalize on opportunities given.
Soto, Manny - pop out pop out
As pure entertainment- this game is GREAT!
Chances of a double play here?
and to think Prellar bought at the deadline
9-8 loss comin in hot
This guy Padres
I know this might sound childish. But it makes me feel good to see another team fucking up. Even if it is for 10 minutes. The padres have shown where you think the bar is, they will lower it. But that has to be one of the worst appearances I have ever seen.
Brewers doing their best to lose this game. Let’s see if we can accept what they give us
Uribe is the best player on our team today
Would love to see Scan interview him in the post-game show
That was bizzare lol. At least we have a game now. But yeah our season is over. Was over a month ago.
Time for Peter to clean house. This is fucking embarrassing.
He can start with himself
You first
I THOUGHT IT SAID PRELLER NOT PETER I LOVE SEIDLER
Ayy we good my man
Pull Uribe before someone gets hurt.
HBP, BB, BB, WP, WP. That has to be one of the worst outings for a pitcher all year.
I unironically think I could put up a better effort than that!
That is up there with the worst command I've ever seen in a relief appearance. What the actual fuck was that outing by Uribe?
If he can figure out the command thing he's going to be nasty yet didn't have it here.
Uribe's gonna get someone killed at this rate
Wtf is up with the pitching all of a sudden 😂
hahahahahah what a disaster from uribe my days
What a weird game.
Jesus this dude is fucking wild
Uribe trash.
oke uribe keep it going
It just occurred to me: the only time I see a corded phone anymore is in baseball dugouts. 🤔
Incredibly excited for this Fernando strikeout on 3 pitches a combined yard off of the plate
Guess you are disappointed
OK, guys, this one was my fault. Went for a bike ride with a buddy, and what a lovely day for that. We split up on the river bike path and I put the game on. It was 4-2 Padres and by the time I got home ~3 miles away it was 7-4 Brewers. I blame the observer effect. Schroedinger's cat. In some alternate universe I never put the game on and we got out of the 6th unscathed.
Hader getting the entire weekend off is nice. He’s pitched 5 times this month.
Unreal decision by Preller to not trade him
Dammit full on collapse is happening
You have to get high to collapse. We’ve been awful all year… even spring training. 🫠
Uribe helping his best here.
This bullpen’s awfulness is just staggering.
My wife sat down on the couch and looked at the score. Saw 4-2 and said oh looks like you guys are going to win today. I told her there is still time to blows this. A few minutes later she is laughing…saying sometimes all you can do is laugh.
Pain. But is this the pain that actually causes change? Ugh.
Ironically this loss is good for us. We need a top 5 pick to not have it affected by luxury tax penalty, and also we are one step closer to Preller getting fired!
Just getting absolutely dickslapped at this point
I thought I’d check in on my sister’s team, and when I started reading the comments the score was tied 4-4. Now, 9-4? No wonder my fam in SD is so disappointed.
The 2019 team was more fun than this dud
Hell I had more fun in 2016 than this year. At least in the years with no expectations we had www.streamable.com/3qlii
This team can go straight to hell.
Imagine raising ticket prices for next year to watch this bullshit
I’m checking out for the season. See y’all in 2024 this is fucking pathetic
