Reaction to the Padres first series of the 2025 season. Michael King and Dylan Cease didn't have their best the first time through but the lineup and bullpen picked them up. Randy Vasquez showed up big in game three and Nick Pivetta dominated on Sunday Night Baseball

Jim Russell joins the show to discuss where he thinks the Padres will end up, if it was the right decision to go with Kyle Hart and Randy Vasquez over Kyle Hart, if he would've went with Brandon Lockridge over Tyler Wade or Eguy Rosario, the pressure the Padres stars have on them to perform and which Padres are most likely to win MVP and Cy Young.

We are less than a week out from Opening Day so we have a better idea of what the roster will look like. There will be no Yu Darvish or Matt Waldron so who fills out the rotation? Who will get the final bench spots?

Friend of the show Jon Schaeffer joins me to talk about the Padres rotation question marks after Yu Darvish and Matt Waldron have been sidelined, his initial thoughts of John Seidler, who is under the most pressure to perform this season, if San Diego State men's basketball had a successful season and Ted Leitner stepping away from Aztecs basketball play-by-play.

We've got less than four weeks to go until Opening Day! Who does it look like the Padres could go with for their 26-man roster? Plus, an action-packed night in San Diego sports on Saturday as SDSU had their senior night and SDFC played on the road without Chucky Lozano.
