The San Diego Padres can control their own playoff destiny. Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the Padres being back in a playoff spot after a thrilling sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers, the hot Jackson Merrill and Fernando Tatis, and the evolving race in the National League.
Should the Dodgers and Cubs be looking over their shoulders for their respective division and wild card lead as the Padres are finally playing their best baseball of the season? Marty and Darren welcome in former Padres All-Star closer Heath Bell to discuss what's changed most about this team since the trade deadline, the message that was sent at the trade deadline when A.J. Preller added to his team instead of selling, and how they've responded.
How much pressure was on Michael King to be the guy amid pitching chaos? The three hear from King on the additions of Ray and Mize, and how much pressure he put on himself to be the ace of the rotation.
The Padres are seeing some excllent production from Luis Campusano and Freddy Fermin, so why on earth would they consider calling up 20-year-old catching prospect Ethan Salas? Darren, Marty and Heath debate the good and bad of calling up Salas, and the impending return of Padres pitcher Joe Musgrove.
