Baseball is finally here. After nearly 10 months between games, the Padres return Friday for game one of the 2020 season. We made it, folks. Derek and Darnay discuss the Opening Day roster and the ongoing questions in a rotation that doesn't include either star pitching prospect (3:20). What kind of role should we expect for Edward Olivares? They address that, other roster questions and the Opening Day lineup (15:15). Then the guys turn their attention to Chris Paddack, and hear from the second year ace on taking the hill Friday (27:51). Before wrapping up with more thoughts on Opening Day, the weird environment around the sport and heightened expectations (36:06).
