Baseball seasons are long stories with good stretches and bad. Remember when the Rays were 13-0 to start the year and had like a .800 winning percentage for a couple months?

Really smart move by the Padres trading for Rich Hill

Dbacks might be the legit worse team in baseball at this point.

They do everything in their power to not score.

If Miller can continue to grow and keep the walks down
If Urias can figure it out
If Kershaw can stay healthy
If Yarbrough can give the team 6 innings a start
If Lynn can be steady

The Dodgers are in the World Series. The offense is getting better which is scary. Kike and Rosario are balling. Once Martinez gets healthy...wow.

I think 3 of the 5 happen, but I think Buehler comes back and gives 3 innings a start and dominates. I want to see Pepiot in the rotation at some point. Gonsolin is done I think and Sheehan will take his spot in 2024.

The trades have been amazing at this point...love seeing Kelly be nast and give the bullpen some attitude for a change.

At this point, the playoff rotation is:

Kershaw
Lynn
Urias
Miller

Buehler and Yarbrough in long relief.

JMO.

Pitched way over his head last year though he's also been hurt this year. Crazy thing about his ERA is his BABIP is rather low (.237) and it's not like he has a particularly high HR/FB rate (11.0%).

Dbacks finally score early and get a lead.

They also got thrown out at home twice in the inning...

That team is unbelievable.

SF really likes swinging at pitches outside the zone. Reminds me of my team.

Alright, im ready to go out and make it official. The Padres are COOKED.

Playing out the season for strictly pride and invidual stat padding.

9 games below their pythag now

even their pitching staff feels like it's propped up by 4 guys. 9.7 of their 10.0 bWAR come from Snell/Hader/Musgrove/Wacha
