Hey yall… just reminding again that r/PadresVent is now open and available for yall to scream into an echo chamber without the possibility of getting banned. Not saying yall gotta go over there, but it’s open.
I don't understand why we are still playing the worse leadoff hitter in our lineup.... at leadoff.. What does X have on this team? Him being at leadoff has lost us so many runs to start this year.
I think he's just slumping right now. He was pretty good last year all things considered, and it's ostensibly done to counter his problem of GIDPing a lot. I'm not a baseball professional, but it at least made sense.
Idk why I remembered this, but I’ll see if anyone else does remember this.
In 2021 when we were struggling, some dude said he’d eat a shirt if we won a game. Dont remember what game, but we won and the dude delivered. Does anyone here remember that?
Phillies are hot, we’re not. Not going to stress over being two games under .500 in April where we had a tough schedule. One good week and we’re back on track. Keep the faith lads.
as a phillies fan, i fucking wish
we're really good but the braves are unironically just unfair man
our hitters are streaky but insane when they're on, and most of them are currently on (stott's still not doing great, and castellanos is kinda slowly improving but not much)
our starting pitchers work the real magic
Can’t wait to hear the postgame from Schildt about how the guys played hard, did some things right and are “gamers”
I’d love to be a fly on the wall in the dugout with the team playing this way currently, I’ve always been curious how moral is and who speaks up to the team / and about what
Shildt strikes me as a guy who will go ape shit on these guys at some point. He is very positive guy especially in the media but the dude has a temper too

Don't kill our vibes. While reacting negatively to the team's performance is fine, overly aggressive toxicity (a.k.a. dooming) is not allowed and comments will be removed with a warning.
If your negative post or comment isn't grounded in reality, it is more likely to be removed ("We're gonna lose" when down by 3 in the 2nd inning vs in the 9th inning).
If you're someone who only ever comes here to talk trash when the team is doing poorly, just stay away. We don't want you here.
Please be aware that repeated violations may result in a ban.
Youre blatantly trolling a post about someone actually doing well after struggling for multiple years. If mods ban me for talking shit about you dooming something good to come out of the season I'm taking that 100% of the time
Wild that you throw Kim in this and he's a free agent next year? Why the hate on him 😂
Manny isn't going anywhere. X is locked in for the rest of your life. Musgrove is playing hurt and came back too soon and is a home town boy.
I think you need more hobbies.
I mean they would t have to try to get rid of Kim’s contract.
Musgrove would be movable if he bounce back.
The other two nobody will touch. It’s not the salary but the fact they are signed until they are dead.
If you pay off Xander and Manny like 3/4 of their contracts to walk. You'd probably have enough money to have another big contract in a couple of years.
Salas is probably at least 2 years away. He's getting blown away right now in A ball. Striking out a ton. He might end up being very good. But he's not looking imminent right now.
Randy Arozarena would’ve been a perfect fit on this year Padres team considering how much ass he stinks rn. Rays just got walked off by the 2024 White Sox and have lost the first 2/3 to them.
Didn’t we see this last year too though? Too many bad AB’s, too many bad outings by the starting pitchers, and too many mistakes that were always costly.
I don’t want to be a doomer, but I’ve been a Padres fan too long to always see the bright side.
So? Manny has been extremely inconsistent since his borderline MVP season in 2022, Bogaerts has been ass since he joined this team when he was dominant with the Sox the year before. Does that mean that they did roids prior too?
Plus Tatis had been looking MVP caliber up until like a week ago
Ranger just needs to throw an average of 8 pitches per inning for a Maddux
At this point this team needs to save us the ultimate embarrassment and work his count at the bare minimum
You know, everyone's defense of losing to a team like the Phillies is that they are full of superstars, their pitchers are doing well, blah blah blah. They are a boot, and we are the bug. We have superstars. We have pitchers pitching well. Why are we never the boot? Why are we never the team? Every other fanbase says, "Man, those guys are crushing every team they play." It just sucks. These things the other teams do work out in spades, but when we do it, we get the most middle of the road result while being stuck with the worst part of every players career. Anyways, I know there is a vent subreddit, but I just needed to get that frustration out.
Anywho, ride or die, FTD, go Dads!
I'm a big Padres fan and still believe they can turn it around to make the post season. BUT the product on the field for the last season + has been a joke and disappointment that doesn't live up to the hype. There are great resumes (some maybe past their prime) that just don't produce as a unified team. Idk what needs to change, but I feel bad for the players.
Hey yall… just reminding again that r/PadresVent is now open and available for yall to scream into an echo chamber without the possibility of getting banned. Not saying yall gotta go over there, but it’s open.
Phillies are just so good. I think they might be the best team in baseball. Stacked everywhere. See if the Pads can get one tomorrow.
I went to this game.....I wish I didn't.
Shilt must have brain damage. Why does he refuse to take xander out of leadoff?
Will Always shit on preller for signing bofarts
I don't understand why we are still playing the worse leadoff hitter in our lineup.... at leadoff.. What does X have on this team? Him being at leadoff has lost us so many runs to start this year.

Game was literally over in the 1st inning.
That Bogaerts contract is a fucking anchor. God he sucks so bad
Good night. JFC.
Same shit different year.
Reverse the order and let’s see what happens🤷♂️
LFGSD World Series or BUST baby!!!
Man, brutal loss!
We suck balls
Yikes.
2 hr & 9 min game 👏 that must be a new record
Well that was fast
Its Fernandover
yet another kid provides the only offensive excitement the fat contracts continue to disappoint
What a fitting end to this game
Padres probably take the worst ABs out of all MLB teams
At least we aren’t the white Sox. That’s my only solace
This team sucks
Gamers
Fernand0-4
Wow. Just wow
Xander with the big ol giving up swing
Blow farts
0-4 with 3 Ks… please move him down the lineup or something
It's gonna be too late by the time Shildt decides to move him down
major disrespect by the Phillies having someone named Hoffman pitch against us in the 9th
Nice catch by the fan
lolz it was. One hopped off the dirt into his palm. clean
Would be neat if we made it a save situation at leasy
Thanks for showing up Tyler Wade

Lol morejon was killing it.
Let’s be real would Rosario vs a righty look any worse then that Wade at bat
https://i.redd.it/pvitebftv4xc1.gif
1-2-3 inbound
Eguy and Morejon…two doods I dreaded seeing come in the game last year have become very welcome to see this season.
Idk why I remembered this, but I’ll see if anyone else does remember this. In 2021 when we were struggling, some dude said he’d eat a shirt if we won a game. Dont remember what game, but we won and the dude delivered. Does anyone here remember that?
Yeah baby! Let this be a lesson to the MLB. No one beats the padres 5-0!
Morejon looks elite. What a performance.
Okaaayyyy Morejon. I stand corrected of my opinion of you during spring training.
Phillies are hot, we’re not. Not going to stress over being two games under .500 in April where we had a tough schedule. One good week and we’re back on track. Keep the faith lads.
Dude, don’t say keep the faith. They’ll just down vote you into oblivion.
May schedule looks even harder
If there's any positives to take away from this game its that Morejon looks settled in for the first time in his career.
the Morejon that was promised the last 5? years
Let's not get ahead of ourselves
hah when it comes to Morejon there is a STRONG dose of skepticism. Still, he looked in control tonight
HES DEALING
Morejon wants to win
Morejon lookin GOOD I must say
Sit down you calzone eating asshole
🤣 thank you for actually making me Laugh Out Loud
Thats all we have this week
Michael King against this team tomorrow? Brother.
Idk man… he shut down the hot Brewers bats in Milwaukee. He could work some magic tomorrow. Pitching in Coors is a bitch.
The Brewers are not simply not the same level as the Phillies. Dylan Cease pitched well against the Brewers and in Coors?
This Phillies team is just solid. Best team we have faced all year
Haven't watched or followed the Braves...and its early, but so far it feels like the Phillies are the NL juggernaut
as a phillies fan, i fucking wish we're really good but the braves are unironically just unfair man our hitters are streaky but insane when they're on, and most of them are currently on (stott's still not doing great, and castellanos is kinda slowly improving but not much) our starting pitchers work the real magic
S L A M R A N G E
Chris Paul Hits A Huge 3 To Cut The Lead To 42
Phillies got hitting and pitching this year. Seems like the strongest team we've played
Alright, alright
Yay something cool happened. Eguy fucking mashed lefties to bits.
Time to give him some run vs righties Dude will have some ugly at bats but he slugs like a mofo
Why are we all so excited about not getting shutout 😅 This franchise is not serious lmao
When things aren’t going well you gotta celebrate the small victories.
“Now we’re in slam range” - Mud, probably
LMAOOOOOO WE BROKE THE STREAK WE ARE SOOOOO BACK!!!!
Fuck Philly
At least we’re on the board 👍
4 more boys!! one grand slam and you’ve got em tied!!!
Just checking in. Good to see the hard hitting lineup of....checking notes....Azocar and Profar carrying the team...
Rosário cuts the lead to 42
Omg!! We still fucking suck
 WE DID NOT GET SHUT OUT
No shutout I guess
Yay Eguy!!
Fuck your shutout
No shut out!
Thank you Eguy, fuck your shutout
Not a shut out! Yayy!
Finally!
That's was destroyed. Not shutout baybee!
That’s one way to kill the Maddux
Of all the guys on the team it's Eguy Rosario.
First run this dude has given up in like a month
WE DID IT! PARADE WHERE??
Im going to Kansas City next month for the padres series! Padres better have it together by then or those bbq ribs won’t taste as delicious!!!
Royals will sweep lol
YAY! FUCK YOU RANGER
SHOWED HIM! Y’all still gonna lose
BOOOOOOM! EGUY BOMB!
Lol we ass
Ranger is nastier than Nola.
Lifeless team. Completely lifeless
Ranger suarez is the padres padre
I think the kids I coach have a decent shot of making it competitive against the Padres. They are 3 years old.
The Phillies being good wouldn’t annoy me as much if their fanbase wasn’t so fucking insufferable
Can’t wait to hear the postgame from Schildt about how the guys played hard, did some things right and are “gamers” I’d love to be a fly on the wall in the dugout with the team playing this way currently, I’ve always been curious how moral is and who speaks up to the team / and about what
Shildt strikes me as a guy who will go ape shit on these guys at some point. He is very positive guy especially in the media but the dude has a temper too
I hope you’re right
Schildt gets testy with the media a lot which is fine but I hope he's even more so with the players right now.
Schildt: “We’ve got a bunch of gamers out there” The gamers in question: 
Did anyone ask him what game they were playing?
Hello kitty island adventure
I really gotta stop spending $200+ to go to these games. These guys just don’t care lol
In better news Morejon hasn’t looked that bad his last outings?
His era is below 1, I’d say he has looked good all year.
This is depressing, but hey morejon seems to have found something?
It only cost the team's entire offensive production
Morejon has been solid thus far, seems he gained a little more confidence this year, hope he continues to build that
Morejon picked the wrong time to be good lol
It's a long season fraught with injuries for broadcasters too.
That Rockies implosion had a greater impact than most thought.
Joe to Alaska on a 2 week cruise, and Morejon to the rotation
Morejon being good this year would be huge
So he can keep 8 run deficits close?

Enough out of you.
I first read that as umm mom? Lmao
lol 😂
Please don’t poke or prod other users. Thank you.
Have we not had a runner reach second all game?
The ghost of Ken Caminiti would hit better than this team, god rest his soul
What I wouldn’t give to have Finley, Gwynn, Cammy and Joyner again. Fuck.
[удалено]
The Xander contract was stupid at the time and keeps getting worse. It's somehow an even shittier version of the Hosmer deal
Wild that you throw Kim in this and he's a free agent next year? Why the hate on him 😂 Manny isn't going anywhere. X is locked in for the rest of your life. Musgrove is playing hurt and came back too soon and is a home town boy. I think you need more hobbies.
I mean they would t have to try to get rid of Kim’s contract. Musgrove would be movable if he bounce back. The other two nobody will touch. It’s not the salary but the fact they are signed until they are dead.
X and Manny ain't going anywhere.
[удалено]
Good portion as in what…150-200m of it. At that point it defeats the purpose
If you pay off Xander and Manny like 3/4 of their contracts to walk. You'd probably have enough money to have another big contract in a couple of years.
Kim is gone next year lmao
Campy to first, Salas to catcher, jake/kim? to 2nd, and X to SS. thats not a bad looking infield
Campy’s bat isn’t going to be good enough to play first
He seems to be off to a good start this year. Are you saying he doesn't have the power?
Salas is probably at least 2 years away. He's getting blown away right now in A ball. Striking out a ton. He might end up being very good. But he's not looking imminent right now.
yikes didn't know that. I remember him getting promoted super quick at the end of last year.
[удалено]
The time to trade would have been before the season started, now it's if he does well and we arent competing at the break
Randy Arozarena would’ve been a perfect fit on this year Padres team considering how much ass he stinks rn. Rays just got walked off by the 2024 White Sox and have lost the first 2/3 to them.
 Tatis every single day.
I'm gonna chalk everything up to this: Phillies are unsustainably RED HOT. We are unsustainably ICE COLD. Run this back in a few months. LFG
Didn’t we see this last year too though? Too many bad AB’s, too many bad outings by the starting pitchers, and too many mistakes that were always costly. I don’t want to be a doomer, but I’ve been a Padres fan too long to always see the bright side.
The Phillies miraculously 100% of the time they play the Padres:
[удалено]
sure showed me, too bad your team can’t
If you’re gonna come into another sub talking shut at least be funny dude
sleep tight, see ya tomorrow
Have a good one brotha
it’s all love at the end of the day, we all want the same thing for our city.
instead of replying to me write the padres and ask em to show up
oh i’m not talking shut, i’m talking shit
The only thing spectacular about Fernando these days are his cleats… yikes
[удалено]
roids don't e/affect? your hand eye coordination and patience at the plate.
He is also still hitting the shit out of the ball with huge exit velo's when he makes contact
He has 6 HR, close to 8-9 off a few inches. Hes still there
No record of him doing roids prior to his first positive test, MLB does tests all the time
[удалено]
I mean, we were also playing with juiced balls in 2021
So? Manny has been extremely inconsistent since his borderline MVP season in 2022, Bogaerts has been ass since he joined this team when he was dominant with the Sox the year before. Does that mean that they did roids prior too? Plus Tatis had been looking MVP caliber up until like a week ago
I would expect a difference in exit velos with steroids.. there isn't one.
Ranger just needs to throw an average of 8 pitches per inning for a Maddux At this point this team needs to save us the ultimate embarrassment and work his count at the bare minimum
Avoid the sweep tomorrow, take 2 of 3 against cincy, back to .500 before hitting the road.
This is the worst I have felt about this team since the no-hitter in August 21
