Oh, what a difference a day makes. Before yesterday’s game it felt like the San Diego Padres were on the brink of collapse. Heading into their first rubber match of the season against the Boston Red Sox, there wasn’t a whole lot of hope they could deliver after losing the first two series of the […]
It would have been understandable if the Friar Faithful were not expecting the San Diego Padres to mount a comeback in the final game of the series against the Boston Red Sox after falling behind 4-0 in the third inning. San Diego starter Walker Buehler worked through the first two innings without much trouble, but […]
Ok, so the winning streak thing didn’t work out yesterday. So today let’s just hope that Ranger Suárez can figure it out on the mound. First pitch at 1:35 PM on NESN.

Yesterday’s game saw this San Diego Padres club do something it hasn’t shown yet this season: fight. After having a 2-1 lead over the Boston Red Sox for most of the game (in large part due to Randy Vásquez’s sheer force of will), Adrian Morejon came in to pitch the eighth inning. He had hoped […]
Better late than never – that is what they say. For the San Diego Padres, that statement rang true when Fernando Tatis Jr., who had four strikeouts in the game, lined a two-out double to center field in the top of the ninth inning off Boston Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman. Ramon Laureano, who had […]
For the eighth game in a row to kick off the 2026 MLB season, the Boston Red Sox failed to score more than five runs. They are the only team in baseball that has yet to do so this season. Get used to this. The lineup isn’t going to be this anemic all season long […]
San Diego Padres star right-fielder Fernando Tatis Jr. struggled at the plate with four strikeouts in his first four appearances against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, Saturday. In the top of the ninth, with two outs, he finally put a ball in play off Boston closer Aroldis Chapman. Tatis Jr. hit a line […]

A couple of weeks ago we didn’t even think he’d make the Opening Day Roster. Now we’re saying “thank god we’ve got Connelly Early going today.” Behind Early, Alex Cora is rolling out the same starting nine batting the same order as yesterday. If ain’t broke, yadda, yadda. In the other dugout, it’s a day-off […]
With another difficult loss for the San Diego Padres, the Friars are in last place in the National League West with a 2-5 record. While the offense has been troubling, the real story of the day (and the last week) has been skipper Craig Stammen’s managing of the relief group. His decision of who to […]
The San Diego Padres have developed a disturbing trend after the first seven games of the 2026 season. In each of their five losses, the Padres have scored three runs or less. The three runs in a loss happened once. The other four losses were by two runs, which included the series opener against the […]
The 2-4 record at the end of the first week of the 2026 season reflected less than good execution on multiple levels for the San Diego Padres. The starters had one excellent performance from Randy Vasquez (six innings pitched, no runs and eight strikeouts) and an acceptable one from Michael King but Nick Pivetta, Walker […]
I personally wasn’t in Boston, but looking at it on TV, that was quintessential Red Sox Opening Day weather, eh? 50s and sunny, the white uniforms back on and a city wanting to kick this team in the backside. Well, they thankfully didn’t make this one too stressful on any of us as they rolled […]

The San Diego Padres needed a win like Wednesday afternoon’s. As the Padres bludgeoned the San Francisco Giants, 7-1, to salvage the series finale, they finally put together an offense that matched what it looks like on paper. The club (after only recording nine extra-base hits going into Wednesday’s contest) had five XBH, including four […]
San Diego Padres Craig Stammen began his managerial tenure, winning only twice during the opening six-game homestand. For all the Spring Training talk, Stammen and company had very little to celebrate in the first week of the 2026 season. Offensive woes continue in 2026 No question, the offensive production is a bit slow out of […]
The San Diego Padres limped to a 2-4 record to start the 2026 season with two three-game sets against the Detroit Tigers and San Francisco Giants. San Diego dropped the first two games in each series and needed to win the third game in order to salvage the series. The Friar Faithful did what they […]
We made it to Opening Day. It was hard to get here, literally. A 1-5 record before setting foot in front of the Green Monster is not what Red Sox Nation waited all winter to see. Already the winnable games in Cincinnati look like missed opportunities compared to the series in Houston. But now the […]
After Wednesday’s loss to the San Diego Padres, it seemed all but certain that the San Francisco Giants would place right-handed reliever José Buttó on the Injured List at some point today. And indeed, on Thursday afternoon, a few hours before starting a series against the New York Mets, the Giants announced that Buttó was […]
For the second time this season, the San Diego Padres needed to win the third game of a series to avoid a sweep. The Padres did just that with a 7-1 win over the San Francisco Giants at Petco Park on Wednesday. Opening Day starter Nick Pivetta bounced back with a critical performance that resulted […]
El Paso Chihuahuas The El Paso Chihuahuas started their season the day after the San Diego Padres and have played four games, three against the Sacramento Salt River Cats and a first of six against the Tacoma Rainiers. They sit at 2-2 on the season with a win against each team. Starter and rehabbing pitcher, […]
