  1. Not tired of winning yet. Just need to save one more of these long winning streaks for October.
  2. At the level the team is currently playing at, I could anticipate today's Sunday Lineup scoring at least 6 runs.
  3. I wonder if there is a sense of near invincibility setting in among the players. It can be a fine line between overconfidence (“just roll the helmets out there”) and proper belief in oneself. But feeling that every game is winnable if each player simply does his job—and not someone else’s—falls on the right side of that line. With these multiple winning streaks and lack of big blowout losses lately, I get the vibe that Murphy has instilled that mindset with everyone on the roster.
  4. I must admit that I did not expect anything like this from Woodruff in the injury comeback season. Maybe something like a 4.25 ERA with a bunch of 5 inning starts. But this performance so far is solidly a #2 starter and pushing toward the top of rotation.
  5. Officially now, as expected:
  6. Having no real target shortstop at the trade deadline hurt. Wonder if there had been any look at some other team’s prospect shortstop (like Darell Hernaiz from the Athletics) while offering a pitching prospect in return.
  7. But when does Arnold start to receive criticism?
  8. Guess that's Preller truly going all in. Wonder what his job security is with the team, particularly if the Padres don't make the World Series or at least the NLCS?
  9. I wouldn't hate adding Kwan, as he is a quality player and has some further years of control. But if I'm looking to obtain an outfielder at the anticipated cost of prospects, I want at least one of the two aspects: (1) a bat that projects to 20+ HR in a season or (2) a glove that projects to being a starting CF. Of course, having both would be optimal. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I just don't see Kwan meeting either of those. So then you're looking at having Kwan in LF and Frelick in RF, where neither of the corner outfielders are power bats. (We already have that with Collins in LF and Frelick in RF.) That would seem to do nothing to the lack of power, which seems like the area where the lineup actually needs improvement.
  10. More unfortunate that the team started getting behind relatively early with its nominal #1 starter going (Peralta) and a reliever that may need to be depended on (Hall). Squandering a chance at the sweep feels worse than a loss in the standings, though it is only one loss.
  11. Giving up runs after the offense gets a lead twice tonight isn’t ideal. Going to need the long relief and some comeback offense.
  12. Having Frelick back in the lineup and the leadoff spot sometime this weekend should be beneficial. Turang has done well filling in at leadoff, but it's probably better to get his bat a little further down in run-producing part of the order.
  13. A lot of sloppiness for the first home game after the All Star Break. Looks a lot different than the previous week on the road. Hope it's just a one-off tied to distractions with today's events that clears up quickly.
  14. Low-scoring games where the only offense comes from a home run are common in the playoffs. It's the area where the team's offense could use an upgrade by adding at least one more batter that's a true home run threat.
  15. The interview makes you want to love the player and not just performance:
