PADCAST

The Padres have officially been eliminated from the playoffs and this season took a turn that we didn't predict (it wasn't the only prediction we got wrong). Good news is that 2022 is on the horizion, which means Sunshine and more is in our forecast. We break down what we got right and our FOUR BIG questions for 2022. All of our Friar Faithful out there, STAY POSITIVE & #StayHungryForMore!

The Padres got swept in LA, we don't speak of sweeps not in our favor. We currently sit halfway to a split with Giants and Nando is one HR shy of the 40-20 club. The Padres MUST take two of three from the Cards if not a sweep. Then we have 9 games left with the Giants and Dodgers and a series with the Braves + 1 inning of makeup baseball. The time has come for all the negativity to leave and lets stay positive and stay #HungryForMore and stay #HungryForTheWildCard!

The Padres a 44.4% chance of getting that final wild card spot, so we're rolling with the fours for this podcast. Since we last talked, Blake has been DOMINANT, Yu got his 1st win in 11 starts, Mark the Shark Melancon gets his 37th, and El Cajon's finest Joe Musgrove has been Mr. Consistent.

What hasn't been consistent is our batting order or our bats. Highlights include, Nando hitting his 37th, Manny & Frazier starting to warm up. We scored 8 runs in 18 innings and they all came in one frame.

We have a one game lead in the Wild Card, so for all you Friar Faithful out there, stay #HungryForMore and #StayHungryForTheWildCard!

With 31 games to go, the Padres are in need of a visit from Uncle Mo! We need to start this series in Arizona with an offensive outburst and pitchers that can go deep into the games. That will then need to be replicated for the remaining 28 games for the Padres to keep hope alive! We discuss what that looks like and how we can make that happen. Friar Faithful, stay positive & #StayHungryForMore and #StayHungryForTheWildCard!

One final break for the summer and a re-brand and "The Podres" are back to talk about our beloved baseball team here in San Diego. We have 36 games to get hot, 19 of them are with the Dodgers and Giants. Yes the Astros and Braves too. We took this off day to get a pod on the books and to discuss what the next 40 days needs to look like without Larry Rothschild. For all of our Friar Faithful out there let's stay positive and #HungryForMore #HungryForTheWildCard!

The Padres split the four game set with the Marlins, which is not the way we wanted to wrap the road trip, however, it's a series split and they got on a plane home afterwards. Adam Frazier is now a Padre and we didn't give up much to get him. We also are the only team in MLB that can now trot out 4 All Stars to start in our infield. There will be a few more trades that #InAJWeTrust pulls out, so for now all you Friar Faithful stay #HugryForMore and #TrustTheProcess!

The Padres start the ASG break with an offensive outburst, scoring 41 runs in 3 games; 24 in the 1st; 10 in the 2nd; and 7 in the 3rd. The Crone Zone hits for the 3rd cycle in Padres history and Pham almost follows suit in the same game! Wil Power flexes his SLAM Diego muscles and hits 3rd SLAM for the Padres since the streak started. We look to take a series win from Atlanta and then head to South Beach and hope we get the invite from Manny or Hosmer. For all the Friar Faithful, stay #HungryForMore!

With ASG5280 in the books, we now head to the back half of the season. We await to see what kind of magic AJ will pull off again. Is it a bat? Is it a pitcher? Is it both? We discuss our 2021 first four draft picks and we make predictions for who will win the NL West, # of wins, HR leader and NL & AL MVP. Enjoy the day off and stay #HungryForMore!

Welcome to SLAM DIEGO Daniel Camarena, the pride of Bonita. In what was the largest comeback in Padres history, the Padres storm back from being down 8-0 to get a walkoff win, 9-8 all powered by a Grand Slam from our very own Daniel Camarena. Nando is the youngest member of the 20-20 club by All Star break. He also has 28 HR's, Jake leads the league in games played at 29 and there's a shark sighting at the top of the majors in saves with 29. Enjoy the festivities in Coors and enjoy some Coors and stay #HungryForMore!
