The top of the fifth brings Oliveras to the plate. The Padres are up 3-0. Three runs seem like nothing in Oracle park though. This was witnessed by anyone who watched last nights Padres Giants game. Oliveras K’s to give 8 strikeouts to Gausman, who actually looked quite good, even though he leaves on the […]

Padres eek out a single against Cueto who has had something of a return to form early in the 2020 season. He has historically been hard to hit because of his awkward stuttering delivery. Nevertheless Machado goes to the third baseman with an infield hit that can’t quite be executed for an out. The Padres […]
Garrett Richards is also looking good early as he follows Paddack and Lamet in the Padres third game of 2020. Yes, he’s using pitches less efficiently, but he does end the top if the inning with 2K’s. Padres, again, seeing consistency from Pham, and doing well with 2 outs. Hosmer up again with men on […]
Dinelson Lamet has some very good stuff. Robbie Ray does too. But for Padres fans this is the first real view of Lamet in more than a year. Through three innings, he’s allowed a single hit and has 5 K’s. Ray just allowed a hit and has 5K’s too. Robbie Ray is technical in his […]
Is Tommy Pham the new Rickey Henderson? He was certainly channeling the Rickey of S.D. Padres history on Friday nights with two Stolen bases with ease in the first game of the year. He’s on pace for 120 stolen bases if he can keep it up. The story of the night for Padres fans, though? […]
Before this game started, and after the rain took the last few innings of the Yankees Nationals game away, I said to myself: I hope this Soroka/DeGrom matchup is the technical pitching game I had hoped for last night. These guys are both so good. It’s crazy when, in the third inning of the game, […]
It would be the opening scene of the 2020 MLB season to see Max Scherzer to serve up a 459 ft home run to Giancarlo Stanton, with Aaron Judge on second base. The World Series Champions, who no one expected to be in the playoffs, with one of the top 3 most dominant pitchers in […]
Is Mike Yastrzemski the smartest player in the MLB so far this season? In a season with small ball threatening to make a comeback, The grandson of one of the most beloved baseball players in history just ran into a dribbling baseball, that just so happened to rob the Dodgers of a double play in […]
Padres pitching looked excellent (so did Angel’s pitchers – Canning especially), with Garrett Richards getting punished literally once in his outing, this, by the best player in baseball, and the best in a generation. That and a bad throw was the extent of anything he did wrong. As a Padres fan, I was most impressed […]
High Heat – Chris Russo. Listening to him rant is fine. We get it, you’re smart about baseball and stats. But there’s a net nothing in the end. What he hypes up turns out to be something you can find on a tweet from a casual fan anywhere. I don’t know how this guy inked […]
