Padres Hot Tub

Craig Elsten and Chris Reed are joined by Padres Hot Tub patrons live on their Discord sound stage to talk through an 8-3 win over the Phillies to start the second half, and a critical four-game weekend set. The Padres rode power and four homers to the win, but did Luis Garcia's ninth inning meltdown set up San Diego poorly to clean out the series?

Chris and Craig talk the Best, the Worst, things that were....things that are....and some things that have not yet come to pass.

This is a tough episode for fans of Shohei Ohtani trade fan fiction, Jake Cronenworth, and the pure fun that are knuckeballs.

Craig Elsten and Chris Reed get together with Padres Hot Tob patrons on the Patreon Post Game stage to discuss a 6-2 win over the Mets, a 5-1 homestand, and if the Padres have created enough momentum to set up a second-half run at a playoff spot.

Chris Reed is joined by MPGA Founder John Gennaro to talk Manny conspiracies, player development and the 6 sided dice that is the trading deadline. Chris puts on Papa Pete's rosey glasses while John bores into you with the eyes of a homicide detective telling you that Dad's not coming home.

In episode 16 of Pads Above Replacement, a stathead series from the Padres Hot Tub Podcast Network, Raphie and John take a fine-tooth comb through each of AJ Preller's drafts from 2015-2022. How did he do at the time? How did those players pan out, either for the Padres or other teams? How did they stack up against the Dodgers?

In episode 15 of Pads Above Replacement, a stathead series from the Padres Hot Tub Podcast Network, Raphie and John investigate the theory put forth by some Padres fans that the team is on the same trajectory as the 2019 Washington Nationals and 2021 Atlanta Braves -- two eventual World Series champions who had slow starts to their campaigns.
