We finally got an actual Padre! On today's edition of the Locked On Padres podcast, Javi welcomes on Padres minor league pitcher Kevin Kopps!

FANTASY TIME! On today's edition of the Locked On Padres podcast, Javier is joined by returning guest Colby Olson (analytics guru over at Just Baseball) to discuss the biggest questions for drafting Padres players this year in fantasy baseball. They talk about how high, or low, you should draft Fernando Tatis Jr., whether or not to expect major bouncebacks for the team in general, biggest sleeper picks for your draft (and some will definitely surprise you!), who is rated too highly, and how to go about naming your fantasy team! It's a fun Friday!

Check the date! On today's edition of the Locked On Padres podcast, Javier celebrates a very rare date (2/22/22) by taking a look at the Padres franchise history of players wearing the number 2. They go back to players with unremarkable careers turned superstars overseas, revisiting the 1984 Padres — widely regarded as one of the best teams in franchise history — and dive into more modern players including Jason Baby, Everth Cabrera, and of course current Padres outfielder Trent Grisham!

The war is over!! On today's edition of the Locked On Padres podcast, Javier breaks down Rob Manfred's presser in which he announced that the universal DH is officially happening.

Crossover! On today's edition of the Locked On Padres podcast, Javier is joined by returning guest Lucas Smith (host of the Locked On Cardinals podcast) to discuss the outlooks on the Padres and Cardinals. They touch on how very different each team's second-half was, with the San Diego Padres suffering one of the biggest collapses in baseball history and tbe St. Louis Cardinals going on an astonishing win streak. They discuss breakout players like Tyler O' Neil and Jake Cronenworth, both team's pitching standouts with Adam Wainwright and Joe Musgrove, whether the Padres pitching can be boosted enough with the return of Mike Clevinger, and then look ahead to what 2022 may entail for both teams.
