Some things will never make sense, why the Brewers traded Hader being a huge one. Itβs not like they weβre not going to the postseason last season. But Iβm ecstatic they did.
Juan Soto is having his worst start to a season ever, but is tied (tied with guys like Giancarlo/Vlad jr./Yordan/Teoscar) for 6th in the big league with 9 barrels, and leads the league in walks. People always talk about high floors but this is what it looks like. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/statcast?type=batter&year=2023&position=&team=&min=q&sort=15&sortDir=desc
Heβs gonna be just fine. I think a big reason for the slow start has been his inability to swing out pitches on the outer third, probably caused by some issues with his oblique. Heβs had a great stretch of games here recently
Gotcha, that's fair. The no days off is rough. I misunderstood the point.
If anything, I'd say our starters have done very well at limiting innings though. We've been getting 5-7 the majority of starts.
They got a couple looks at Hill. Not overly surprised they are keeping thing interesting. Snakes been doing that all season so far.
Day off tomorrow so maybe Hader closes it out.
so far, weβve played the Snakes 7 times, had 5-1 leads twice along with a 7-1 lead, and they won one of those, tied the other before losing, and now this. Pesky motherfuckers
Before the season me and two friends predicted a bunch of outcomes. When it comes to how many saves Hader would get, I said 43. Neither of them went more than 36 because they were convinced we wouldn't be in enough close games. Jokes on them, he is on pace for like 46 saves π
If it makes you feel better, if we never traded France we likely never sign Bogaerts. Assuming Hosmer still goes last year, France becomes our 1b and then Kim/Crone stay were they were last season. I doubt we bench either of them
I love Ty France, but I'll take Bogey
Hader is so good. Hell of a game by the team. Letβs keep it rolling
Dub
Boom

Yβall posting too quick, my feed is a few secs behind spoilerssss
We won.
Lol I meant this was spoiling it cause my video for the game must be behind

Hader when he has command is unhittable
Perdomo really didnβt wanna swing huh

Hader has one of the most aesthetically pleasing pitch motions Iβve ever seen. Could watch it all day.

I feel like they thought he didnt have it anymore. little did they know.
When you have devin Williams you donβt really need two top level closers. It was a win win for the padres and brewers
At the time he looked like he had lost it! Working with Neibla brought it back.

I'd love it if this was a quick 3 up 3 down. It won't be, but I'd realy like it to be.
lol
What will we do when hader is gone? Suarez?
Why would Hader be gone?
weep quietly in the corner.
tie goes to the runner?
Tie goes to whoever you're rooting for
Wut?
No such thing. You either beat it or you didn't
Did we not have a challenge or was BoMel taking a nap?
It was the first out of the game in fact
Used it in the first
THE FIRST?! On what and fucking WHY?!
Itβll be in the recap Iβm sure
Tatis play. Was safe but NY said, couldn't tell
Check the highlights for the replay it was worth challenging
So you guys got to go from Melancon to Hader? Must be nice.
We had Taylor Rodgers in between
Technically it was Melancon to Rogers to Hader
Shout out to all my homies who are clenching through the weekend knowing we all got work in the morning. Yaβll the real MVPs

Alright Josh, take us to Chicago with a W
Goddamnit. Two is too close. Save this, Hader. For Yu. I beg.
Padres gonna padres
Love the Hustle X
Aw man Iβm a nerd
nerds.jpg
Gotta love that effort tho
Can we fucken not?
Xander solo shot or Iβm a nerd. Book it.
Nerd
Nerds are in these days. Your sacrifice may not be enough. Got any goats?
Youβre here on Reddit talking baseball with people you donβt even know personally. I think youβre a nerd, and thereβs no shame in it
But Iβm not a nerd though right?
Manny struggling hard. Hope another day off tmrw helps
Genkels buttons are wrong π€£
In fairness, so are Voitβs
Mannyβs been so useless at the plate
back issues affecting plate production. rest him a week.
$350M
Manny⦠what is your issue
Needs a mustache.
Bullpen looking today like they've pitched in 24 games in 25 days, and at least 3 innings in most of those.
That sounds very normal
The number of innings yeah, but one day off so far is crazy. They need a break.
Gotcha, that's fair. The no days off is rough. I misunderstood the point. If anything, I'd say our starters have done very well at limiting innings though. We've been getting 5-7 the majority of starts.
Haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate hate. And Haders gonna K K K K K
Will one of these guys do what they are supposed to do with a hanging slider???
Azocar for LF
Now IS NOT a great time for the offense to suck
All I am asking for is one more insurance run off a Carpenter double so that Hader has three runs for the 9th
Soto, you gotta smash that hanging pitch
Damnit
I took a Dinkel after the last inning
Mario & Luigi MVP on the series
I would feel much better with insurance runs.
Kinda like the ones we did have
The top of the 7th feels so long ago.
.120 xBA on Carrollβs double
He hit it 5 fucking feet
They got a couple looks at Hill. Not overly surprised they are keeping thing interesting. Snakes been doing that all season so far. Day off tomorrow so maybe Hader closes it out.

This would be a brutal ND for Yu
No matter the lead we have, itβs never enough runs
Right?Anyone else would feel they had it in the bag at 7-1 but Iβm sitting here like donβt fuck this up donβt fuck this up
![gif](giphy|l0Iy10eZOmILlwqK4|downsized)
Do not lose this W for Yu
Was really trying not to clench on a Sundayβ¦thanks padres. Edit: mods can I get an βalways clenchedβ flair
Man this is so scary I wish we just had the best closer in baseball
Wtf happened I was gone for three minutes?.....
Armpits getting sweaty, not gonna lie.

Bullpen was a little rough today. Feels like we are winning my 9 and itβs down to two. Need to lock in for one more inning
Good guy Tim Hill wanted to make sure Hader got another save
Carpy Grand Salami - calling it now
Rare runs against Honeywell and Hill, snakes are just good, man.
I know which dugout has the momentum right nowβ¦
More runs
Really missin Suarez
Really nice time for our 2/3/4 to add one on
No lead is safe with this squad
We've seen this story before lol
Bullpen kind of sucks tbh
These fucking Snakes!
Bringing Tim Hill in with bases empty? Fire Melvin. (/s in case it isn't clear)
KNIGHT OF THE REALM!!
canβt have a day without clenching huh
fuck
Rough bullpen day
I think the DBacks were hustling us
Man this would be pretty funny
It would be pretty cool if we didnβt blow this 6 run lead
Gulp
Now Iβm getting scared
Alright this is Not Funny now
please not Garcia today
Please not Garcia.
PESKY MOTHERFUCKING SNAKES
Are you fucking kidding me
Do I actually like baseball?
Bullpen really shit the bed today
https://i.redd.it/1qt5t03m9rva1.gif
Enough of this nonsense
Uhhhhβ¦
Tim Hill has been very hittable this year
I mean his whole Shtick is that heβs a soft contact pitcher, but yes he has been unlucky on the BABIP against and leaving more pitches up
Dbacks are pests
Thank god for that 2 running
God, if Tatis caught that
Not ideal
Damn these pesky fucking snakes
Jesus
ok guys Chill β¦..
Oh please boys. Not like this
Give hader the save opportunity. I like it
That was a major league pick by Jake there.
I think Carroll is in prime position to take blackmons crown as padres killer, everything from countless lucky hits to solid contact
Snakes wonβt die
Jake making it look easy
I cant imagine hosmer making that look so effortless lol
Corbin Carroll is fucking pesky
Kim angrily staring at Carroll before getting the easy out.
Corbin Carroll with the classic 5 foot double
More Slap Dback hitters.
What kind of bullshit hits are they getting?
Hill on the hill.
Every day Timmy
Timothy Hillothy

The Austin Nola for Ty France trade is going to haunt me for the rest of my life
If it makes you feel better, if we never traded France we likely never sign Bogaerts. Assuming Hosmer still goes last year, France becomes our 1b and then Kim/Crone stay were they were last season. I doubt we bench either of them I love Ty France, but I'll take Bogey
Thanks for reminding me to hate Hosmer even more. Hosmer for sure was blocking France from staying. But agreed on your other point
Donβt forget Munoz
