who is Jayce Tingler?

who is Jayce Tingler?

Prellers buddy. That always works in pro sports.

Prellers buddy. That always works in pro sports.

If it don't work out, Preller will be fired. Maybe after next season.

[RobH]

I'm open minded. The guy seems to have a pretty good pedigree. We'll see how it goes. Preller is putting his own reputation on the line here, so he must feel pretty good about the guy. Time will tell, I guess.

Is Fernando Tatis the best player in the MLB?

[Fleet]

Id rather have him over Story or Turner. He he just needs to stay healthy. He is filthy raking though.

Needs to cut down on the K's

I forget this thread exists sometimes but I want to say this...

maybe it’s because I never played baseball
my wife is 10X the baseball/Padres fan I am
but I read up on the whole controversy about Tatis violating some “unwritten rule” by hitting on a 3-0 count bases loaded, and I think that’s the biggest crap pie, possibly ever.
I believe in unwritten rules on the whole, mainly around safety issues if not exclusively.
but let’s not ask our pro athletes to take it easy
like people say, if you don’t like being hit on, pitch better.
I’m down with protecting players safety but players egos?
I can’t believe Rangers retaliated, weakest move ever. I’d be embarrassed being a Ranger or even Ranger fan

”mercy rule” culture has no place in pro sports.

go Padres!
SD CONNECTION
CLIPPERS
PADRES
CHARGERS!

[Boltjolt]

I agree, Bunch of crybabies.
The mercy rule is for t ball players. Grow a pair ya whiners.

[Boltx]

Holy shit, are the Padres for real this year?
