The second time in recent Padres history has a former shortstop been moved. After having Fernando Tatis Jr become a primary right fielder as well as an excellent one, the Padres have transitioned the $280 million shortstop Xander Bogaerts to second base, where Bogaerts has never played the right side of the diamond. Will this transition work for the organization and both Bogaerts and Kim?

I know this take will get blasted. But Trevor Bauer wants to play again and rightfully so. The San Diego Padres need pitching, and what better way than to make things right by signing the former Cy Young winner in Bauer? At some point, we as baseball fans have to put the past in the past, just like we did as Padres fans with Fernando Tatis Jr. It is time for the team to make a necessary move and grab Bauer who is willing to play for a low price.

Injuries suck! But unfortunately, it is a part of the game. It is devastating to hear about Shohei Ohtani tearing his UCL again in which Tommy John surgery is likely, but not required. With Ohtani's value dropping with the injury, do not be fooled San Diego. This could play a huge factor in his future as well as the Padres' overall roster in the near future. Should the Padres take the risk in signing Ohtani without knowing the status of his two-way abilities?

The San Diego Padres reportedly offered star third baseman Manny Machado an extra 5-year, $150 million to his contract which would have totaled to an extra 10 years, $255 million rather than the remaining 5-year, $150 million if opting in. This was an embarrassment for the organization that lowballed Machado before Spring Training goes underway. Dominick DeRosa goes into why that was a poor move but also how this is not the end of Padres-Machado era. Check out the podcast episode on why Machado will stay in San Diego for life below!

Friar Faithful, Manny Machado has made it clear he is going to opt out of his remaining five year, $150 million contract with the San Diego Padres once the end of 2023 comes. However, that does not mean he will be in a Mets uniform or a Yankees uniform or anything like that. On this episode, Dominick DeRosa expresses his confidence that Machado will stay in San Diego long-term with a reconstructed contract even if he opts out to 'test the market.' Perhaps he explores the market to have the Padres make a significant offer. (Just as Aaron Judge did for the Yankees when looking into other teams.)

It was not looking good for the #Padres after being shutout in back-to-back games with the Dodgers finale and the Giants opener. However, some Machado magic and key rallies especially from the new kids on the block helped bring the team to a much-needed series win.

Who would of thought the words Most Valuable Player and Eric Hosmer would be in the same sentence! No, seriously. We expected these big league numbers from Machado but all credit goes to Hosmer as well for carrying this Padres offense and was a big contribution in this series that got the other bats going. Let's continue that offensive slugfest in Pittsburgh and Cleveland.

The San Diego Padres pitching has been lights yet again. The defense has carried this Padres team so far early into this season. Despite runs being driven in in the first game, the Padres bats have not been producing but were able to split a series with the former World Series Champs in the Atlanta Braves.

The San Diego Padres can get on base. Whether it is by the hit, hit-by-pitch, or walk, the Friars can put the pitcher into the stretch. But, most of the time that happens the Padres do not score or barely take advantage of what they accomplished which has been very frustrating. Host Dom DeRosa goes into the series against the San Fransisco Giants and the biggest problems that resulted at the end of the road trip.

The San Diego Padres want to forget about this past week of baseball. After winning two of three from the Miami Marlins, heading on the road to the mediocre Arizona Diamondbacks made it seem like a challenge as the Padres got shutdown numerous times throughout and got the taste of what it is like to be no-hit on.

Blake Snell and the Padres played better to split a two game set versus the Oakland A's on the road. Overall, Snell has pitched better lately due to a different pitch mix. The Padres could not get the sweep against Arizona, but quickly bounced back in order to take the series as Darvish had a much needed dominant start. San Diego's starting rotation struggled in July, but in the few games in August, it has been much better for the Padres.

The San Diego Padres have just begun the second half of the 2021 MLB season with the conclusion of the All-Star break.

The Padres offense got it rolling for the most part to take two out of three from the struggling Diamondbacks.
