Ben Fadden gives you his thoughts on the Padres getting swept by the Dodgers in LA this weekend. Fans were hoping that Bob Melvin calling out his team publicly on Thursday was going to lead to better results over the weekend but that didn't happen. The offense continues to underwhelm with runners in scoring position and hasn't been able to capitalize on their opponents' mistakes. Plus, Manny Machado hasn't gotten off to a great start in 2023 and some fans are putting out a dumb narrative about why he's underperforming. And as always near the end of the show Ben gives you the latest around San Diego sports, including how the San Diego Wave and San Diego Loyal did this weekend.
