Padres Hot Tub

Craig Elsten, Chris Reed, and Raphie Cantor switch things up and talk on a Friday about the San Diego Padres and their lackluster offseason -- Josh Hader is now mercifully out of the NL, Chris Reed gathered some interesting stats on why a first time manager could portend well for the Padres, and finally Raphie leads Craig and Chris through a quiz show which puts in perspective just how awful the Padres were in the 2010s decade.

Craig Elsten, Chris Reed, and Raphie Cantor are back in 2024 to talk about a team that hasn't done much since the end of 2023. While the pitching FA market continues to go haywire, AJ Preller and the Padres remain relatively quiet. The team speculates on whether the market has passed us by, and then moves onto to tackle the future of Ha-Seong Kim with the Padres in 2024 and beyond.

The lows, the surprising highs, and what the consequences are for 2024.

Craig Elsten, Chris Reed, and Raphie Cantor gather on the Monday after two monumental events which potentially changed the trajectory of the San Diego Padres. The exodus of Juan Soto and Trent Grisham via trade to NYY, and Shohei Ohtani signing a $700M contract with the Dodgers -- but is it really $700M? The answer is no. The guys break down why, and how this could potentially alter baseball and the Padres forever.
