Ben Fadden gives you his thoughts on the San Diego Padres first three games in the series against the Chicago Cubs. Just as Manny Machado makes his return other key Padres suffer injuries. Is Xander Bogaerts headed to the IL? What about Rougned Odor? Plus, the offense continues to be inconsistent as they did nothing on Friday and Sunday but had an encouraging game on Saturday. What will it take for the lineup to start being consistent? Ben also has some thoughts on some people thinking AJ Preller needs to go. And as always near the end of the show, Ben gives you the latest around San Diego sports!
