Padres (King) vs Brewers (Misiorowski): 5/13/26, 6:40pm

[adambr2]

Chourio took a hanging slider right down the middle and then hacked at a pitch a foot high.

[RobertCrawley]

Hate losing like that.

One Usinger's meatball.

[yourout]

Padres have the better closer.......by a fair bit.

[yfinn6]

That's a really disappointing loss. Really bad offense. Uribe sucked.

He's a good one.

This organization has to imo stop hoarding prospects and go and find some mlb help. Holes that need plugging everywhere. It would be nice to see. Bullpen is huge need and so is another bat since Yelich is sore today after playing one game. 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Finished off quite a few of those games where just barely enough was done to win last season. Didn’t get it tonight.

That loss is 100% on Murphy - not Uribe

He is a great manager until he has to make an “in game decision”

Heartbreaking & unnecessary loss

Ashby could have pitched the 9th & Uribe would have been ready for tomorrow 

What a waste of three hours

The walk in front of the meatball was the real issue.

[adambr2]

This is one of those losses that happen because you have guys like Joey Ortiz in your starting lineup that always come up with the bases loaded.

Unforgivable

Murph didn't throw the meatball.

Ultimately you had a one run lead with with two innings left.   It’s doesn’t matter if it was 8-7 or 1-0.     At some point you have to show the ability to close these out.   Our top relievers haven’t shown much at all this year.     
 

apparently we have to be up 6-2 a lot to win

They won 2 low scoring games against the Yankees with near perfect bullpen performances, and scored a winning run against the Yankees closer. 

Score 1 or 2 runs in a game and you’re going to lose some, even with late leads

How many called third strikes today with mob. That's happening way to much

Yep. When Andujar got on, Bogaerts was the guy he had to get. Can’t walk him there. Can’t happen.

Missing with three uncompetitive pitches after getting a 1-2 count. That was very unclutch.

Would have left Ashby myself but Sheets shouldn't see a righty in that ab. Brutal loss but quietly the offense was horrendous. 

I agree 100% you should never pull a guy that just pitched a great inning on 14 pitches. Stupid stupid stupid. (Murphy)

[willie key]

When you are rocking  5 era you can’t be doing anymore cute dances on the mound.    Time to bear down and do your job now uribe.   Get it back

I dont think its sacrilege to say Murph's weakest area as a manager is bull pen management. He has many strengths but that is not one of them. 

[wiguy94]

Unfortunately Uribe and Megill just don’t feel like trustworthy arms at this point. That is going to have to change because I don’t think we have the internal options to replace them. Megill doesn’t seem like he’s going to get his 100mph heat back and Uribe unfortunately has no feel for his pitches. Two different problems. Uribe in particular seems a bit more concerning because Megill has seemed to right the ship a bit meanwhile Uribe is still throwing his pitches up in the zone constantly 

[Underachiever]

If Turang manages to snag that liner we are having a very different conversation.

and I’m not blaming Brice, btw

For better or worse, Abner is the closer. If you’re up one run in the bottom of the ninth, you bring in your closer. That’s just baseball.

Who decided to put Uribe in back to back games when he hasn’t been successful in that scenario yet? And it was a 1-0 game. Bad decision.

I’m more worried about Megill’s curveball. The combination of the strike in the upper zone with the knuckle curve at the bottom of the zone is deadly. But if he can’t control the curve, if all he has is the fastball, he’s not nearly as effective.

[Brian]

Uribe needs to take that lump Copenhagen out of his lip and start pitching like he's not dizzy from the nicotine.
