I don’t care who they hire as long as it isn’t a cheater like Beltran. Hire somebody that’s qualified and doesn’t have proven record of being a dickhead.
As soon as the Padres clinch, they should lose as much as possible to get on the other side of the bracket as the Dodgers. I’m starting to understand why teams with higher seeds should be able to choose an opponent. It shouldn’t be a better thing to be a 6-seed than a 5-seed.
Lynn vs Snell
Padres magic number for 6-seed is 1 on the Brewers. They play at 1, so the Padres may clinch mid game.
5-seed magic number on the Phillies is 3.
I’m sure whatever Margalus wrote was correct, but whatever man. He’s been gone a month and we’ve know at least two weeks his managerial career is over. We’re on to the rest of decision makers and fixing this roster and the attitude of some of the players that will still be here next year in our “winning” window.
What they should do if they’re going to stick with the balanced schedule starting next year, is just abolish the three divisions. Top 6 seeded in order. Game 163 if 2/3 and or 6/7 tie.
Eloy, Vaughn, and Abreu can’t be teammates next season. Abreu needs to move on.
Moncada would be great to move, but I doubt it happens.
The rest will be back and hopefully the new manager will get more out of these guys.
