Padres Hot Tub

Craig and John (with a quick pop-in from John's wife!) move inside to the air-conditioned kitchen to talk about the San Diego Padres and their lack of plan for their offense. Also....are Wil Myers and Eric Hosmer the new Phil Nevin and Ryan Klesko? Later, Craig preaches civility on social media.

Craig and John deal with some microphone issues, talk through the Manny Machado nonsense, talk about free agents in the upcoming offseason, decipher the San Diego Padres' issues at 3B, and more.

The San Diego Padres have been playing well lately, and they're actually fun to watch! Craig and John try and figure out what has changed, if it is sustainable, and what it all means for the future of the franchise.

Craig and John return to Gennaro's backyard to talk about a very good week for the San Diego Padres, and what it means for the long-term and immediate future for the team. Is Franmil Reyes for real? What about Hunter Renfroe? Should the Padres be shopping Brad Hand or not?

Craig and John, live from John's backyard, get caught up on all things San Diego Padres (including Phil Hughes!) before sending their best to Ted Leitner.

Craig and John battle it out over the negative feelings surrounding the 2018 San Diego Padres and the hopeful feelings about their future. Do you have faith?

Craig Elsten and John Gennaro get back together after a series drubbing of the San Diego Padres at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers to talk about what has gone right (not much) and what has gone wrong (a lot) with a local team in the last week.
