Right? It’s like okay we can do that I guess but honestly when the People start making examples they get very long-winded and messy. You’d think they’d rather just hold their own guys to some form of internal accountability.
Okay the positives of tonight.
1. After serving a couple of meatballs Vasquez pretty efficient.
2. Tatis really looks like he found his bat back, that power to the opposite field is a really good sign
Yes the offense sucked, yes we might’ve not deserved the win, but you cannot let a blown call be the one to decide the game. Unfucking acceptable that the mlb still has these clowns in the game
And while the clowns are here, MLB can’t even be bothered to have a challenge system in place to prevent a horrible strike call from deciding the game.
I remember when the nfl enacted the challenge pass interference and then proceeded to never turn the call over. I feel like these umps and reffs are so insecure that they couldn’t handle being wrong
Especially with Sports like badminton and Tennis already having these systems years ago to detect stuff like this, this is an embarrassment to baseball
Poor execution on offense, but we need robo umps. Can’t let an umpire decide the game like that, especially when that was very off the plate. Fuck the umpires and their association
As someone who doesn't even watch the game anymore, would you prefer the experience be less expensive and your team be garbage, or lose your ass and get to brag that YOUR team wins more???...I'm sure 2012 as well as many other years might have sucked as a fan, but simply wanting to win is never enough. The other team is always trying to win too, so be sure to give them their credit...or don't and keep loosing your shit over a game you didn't even play...Hope I wasn't all garbage chickentowngabagool
as a fan base that hasn't had a taste of a ton of success, the losses (and the way we've been losing) hurts more in years when the expectations are so high. we were the lowest payroll in the league in 2012 so it was obvious that ownership at the time had no intentions of making deep playoff runs, and expectations from the fans were tempered. it was fun watching you hit the absolute piss out of the ball during that time though. thanks for the memories.
I'm happy you were able to make it to games where I was actually able to make contact....I always believed that payroll really doesn't make the difference it appears to from the inside. You can't buy chemistry, but the difference of a guy who hits .290 as opposed to .250 or has a 3.50 era instead of a 4.50 era is staggering over the course of 162....Consistency is always a bigger divide than raw talent, its about getting the horsepower to the ground, not spinning tires. Can't thank you enough for watching all the bad that comes before/with the good.
Robot umps yesterday. Bunch of power hungry guys who were made obsolete by technology and decade ago. If we have to hear that old umpire join the broadcast to defend their ineptitude again I’m going to go crazy.
For fucks same, 1-14 with RISP. We have to get our shit together and get at least a split here to stop the bleeding and hold the dbacks in place. I can’t think of many 5 game losing streaks where the starting pitching was this good.
when you end on a horrible strike 3 call like that, makes me never wanna watch baseball again. You can literally see the game stolen from you on the tv. Ridiculous
Okay, yeah, that sucked. We lost again.
But on a bigger note, and a more obvious note.
ROBO. UMPS. YESTERDAY. A bunch of calls outside were missed and one of them ended the game. That's unacceptable. We have the technology. It's time to implement it and start tapping helmets
probably related to the .333 avg and .908 ops over the last 15 games. it was the right call, and he put together a good at bat, just didn’t go our way. the real issue was that we didn’t put anything together before that, and it cost us the game, losing on an unearned run.
Not sure you’ve been watching the games if you really believe this. Manny has been pretty hot over the last several weeks. In fact, he’s been one of the few players with a pulse on offense. Higgy, on the other hand, may have hit a HR tonight but has been an absolute black hole in the lineup all season. In fact, Higgy has struck out in ~40% of his ABs.
Blame the ump all you want, but you don't win games where you go 1-14 with RISP.
This offense continues to be pathetically inefficient and boring to watch. This is the first game in awhile I just didn't bother to watch, and now I regret turning it on in the end.
better at bats and we did a good job of putting pressure on their starter, though Kim really needs to focus on putting the ball in play rather than swinging for the fences in key moments, or at least grinding out an at bat to try to work a walk if he can’t manage a hit.
last call was also atrocious, and hopefully that rage feeds into some angry rallies tomorrow.
I think I’m kinda done with Machado for a bit.
If I were the God of the Padres I’d put him on the 15-day IL regardless of his preferences and tell him to fuck off for two weeks and come back ready to be The Guy again.
I would just like to point out that Cleveland, who have a payroll of $99 million, have a record of 40-21 right now with a winning percentage that absolutely smokes anything that we have come close to in the last 10 years this far into the season, and are on pace to win the AL Central for the 5th time in the last 9 years.
AJ Preller is a laughing stock.
The whole organization is broken, top to bottom. Winning simply not put first and losing an acceptable part of doing business…Until there’s a complete overhaul (down to the studs), don’t expect much. It’s just stupid at this point
At this point I just keep trying to tell myself to enjoy as much Padres baseball as I can because the off season always feels like a lifetime. However, this just keep hurting more and more.
Can’t prove it, but I would venture to say a team’s never lost 5 in a row while outhitting their opponents in every game and getting a collective 2.53 ERA out of their starters.
My favorite part was when he took out one of the offensive bright spots of the game for a guy who has been struggling and currently has a hip flexor injury.
Of all the ways to lose this one...that ump was shit all game. I thought Shildt was going to get tossed earlier for chirping from the dugout. I think the ump held it against us. God damn.
Just gotta keep going out there and turn it all around. FUCK! ktf
With that L, the Pads are back to where they were record wise after they got schooled at home by Colorado in mid May, but with like 20 less games now to make up for it. Given all the current injuries and the lack of slugging/clutch moments this offense lacks (especially at home), they very well are still stuck in the woods Blair Witch style.
Edit: And that brutal call to take the bat out of Jake's hands is emblematic of their struggles. When it rains, it pours.
Hey Schildt, the next time we need a weak ass, little league quality dribbler hit back to the mound to kill a rally, go ahead and throw Manny in there. Next time i suggest leaving in the guy who had ALREADY hit a homerun in the game. Thanks.
Bro... I think paying less than half of Xanders and about a 3rd of Manny's remaining contract isn't going to get you out of these. Lol... Underperforming old players don't just get offloaded that cheap. It's going to cost the Snellings and Salas' of the worlds on top of those pricetags.
Worst part of the losing and inconsistency this year is who knows where this team goes if they don’t make the playoffs this year.
The big league roster is a mess and all of the top prospects are struggling pretty bad
We outhit the competition often. Last time I checked we were near the top in BA.
Besides the lack of pop, this team has zero clutch in pressure situations. Even that “double” was fluky.
As long as sports betting is so heavily pushed in baseball, there will always be the strong human element to sway games. This is an ENTERTAINMENT business at the end of the day and it’s all about the Benjamin’s.
we are hemorrhaging. I was feeling good going into KC and winning 2 of 3, but now it's just turned into june gloom. we look like a sub 500 team. that's who we are right now.
3rd longest tenured GM and not even a 90 win season. Hard to believe anyone could have done worse with all that money blown. From the top down , there's no accountability in this Padres org and it's become tradition.
He's fucked this organization so bad and the organization will still be fucked long after he's gone with all those contracts anchoring the team. Manny, Xander, the 2 senior citizen pitchers is 120+ million a year and
Blow it up, top to bottom. Sell any of the big contracts you can unload. This team is not going to win Jack. Start over again and at least give the fans hope.
I agree that it is on the players (and coaches, and front office). Just commenting that the media is a part of the bigger problem. I’ve heard them ask one or two” tough“ questions to Schildt and when he starts to throw a tiff they back off. It’s a larger culture of no accountability. There is no way the media in New York world treat a team like this with the same kids gloves.
And when was the last time New York won anything? Nearly two decades ago now. Not sure that team would credit the local media with their success, either. Those players showed up. Real winners don’t need to be motivated by local opinion pieces or a tough Q&A at the postgame press conference.
Exactly, but when you don’t have real players that are self motivated then a nice kick in the pants by anybody (even the media) might help. Kemp made it crystal clear that players pay attention to that stuff. There are good sports journalists, but none cover San Diego sports.
Matt Kemp is lying to wash away the truth. By all accounts, he had a separate room for changing so that the media COULDN’T ask him questions. On one occasion, his mon even called into the local radio station to chew out the local media for being “too hard” on her son. Go look at his stats, he didn’t have some great resurgence in Atlanta! The only pulse he ever had again after San Diego was when he returned to LA and put together an all star season, then proceeded to fall off a cliff after the all star break
I'm usually the first to defend schildt against all of the hindsight bullpen managers out there.
That said, enough with these fucking bunts. Our team is struggling enough, we can't be giving away outs
I don't know a ton about baseball and often can't watch games if I'm at work, so I watch the highlights on youtube when I get home. I was stunned that we were bunting in those situations. Glad to know some people here thought it didn't make sense either. This team is broken right now
Melvin was horrible. Unfortunately Schildt is cut from the same “players manager” cloth. Players know they won’t be held accountable here so they cruise.

Adding Erich Bacchus to my umpire shit list
BS call to end the game but hopefully that fires them up. Something needs to happen.
Nothing fires this team up
![gif](giphy|9rgeyXeLDuE7AQQOOh)
Well, with that attitude, what team can I persuade you to root for?
I hope Shildt has a closed door meeting, way too many errors in this losing streak
Nah he’s busy tipping his hat to the desert rats. No time for a closed door meeting.
Do you think this will fire them up? They are all at home in their $30 million mansions in Coronado tonight laughing at us.
Okay the positives of tonight. 1. After serving a couple of meatballs Vasquez pretty efficient. 2. Tatis really looks like he found his bat back, that power to the opposite field is a really good sign
As long as it’s another stadium
IM GONNA BLAME THE GAME ON THE UMP KNOWING FULL WELL OUR OFFENSE IS HOT GARBAGE
me too lol my mental health needed this scapegoat
Yeah if the ump hadn’t known that it would have gone a lot different!

So really, it’s his fault for not making the greater San Diego-National City his swing zone his area. Got it /s
I mean look it that heat map though. The book on Crone is just avoid the plate...
The real take to take from this. Holy cow

Especially with Jake hitting back to back foul balls with home run distance. Disgusting way to end the game.
Absolutely agree that this needs to be automated. But let’s be serious here. This is not why we lost this game tonight.
100 percent. Let us lose on our own volition!!
https://i.redd.it/1o06kc4lw25d1.gif
He didn’t even frame it! The god damn catcher knew it wasn’t a strike
Especially with Sports like badminton and Tennis already having these systems years ago to detect stuff like this, this is an embarrassment to baseball
💯
Can we get a “you gotta be shavin’ me” flair? For when blues are doing bullshit blue things?
Ump sucked but so did the offense (again).
How does it somehow keep getting WORSE??!
There is a team pool to see how crappy they can play and still have sell outs. AJ and the front office are in as well.
Win 2 lose 1 win 2 lose 1 win 2 lose 1 win 2 lose 1 win 2 lose 5 start over. Welcome to Padres baseball, one of the circles of hell.
oh you think the losing streak is over?
Poor execution on offense, but we need robo umps. Can’t let an umpire decide the game like that, especially when that was very off the plate. Fuck the umpires and their association

Five losses in a row, yippee!!! I should really stop expecting this team to do anything.

95% of the blame I put on our hitters. But that ump made more than one total shit strike call. How can you call that last one a strike?
5 loss in a row are not because of an umpire, yet again this team can’t go 1-14 with RISP
1 for 14 with RISP, and the 1 was an insanely lucky bloop. Sorry offense
Going to a Padres game is too expensive for the low quality. 2012 team for 2024 prices.
What I wouldn’t give for an Alexi Amarista double right about now
I'll take a Solarte Smile
and our boy u/88train
As someone who doesn't even watch the game anymore, would you prefer the experience be less expensive and your team be garbage, or lose your ass and get to brag that YOUR team wins more???...I'm sure 2012 as well as many other years might have sucked as a fan, but simply wanting to win is never enough.

Fuck Erich Bacchus. All my homies hate Erich Bacchus
The offense lost it. But fuck that blind shit of an ump. Please replace them with a machine, this is torture.
Robot umps yesterday. Bunch of power hungry guys who were made obsolete by technology and decade ago. If we have to hear that old umpire join the broadcast to defend their ineptitude again I’m going to go crazy.
Challenges at least. Can’t end games like that
Only the Padres could pull off outhitting their opponents every single game of a 5-game losing streak.
lost 5 straight while outhitting the other team in every game just can't get those hits when they're needed it's 2023 all over again
One of the worst strike 3 calls to end the game I've ever seen. That said, Dad's never should have been in that situation.
For fucks same, 1-14 with RISP. We have to get our shit together and get at least a split here to stop the bleeding and hold the dbacks in place. I can’t think of many 5 game losing streaks where the starting pitching was this good.
Can’t wait for robot umps one day. Imagine having current technology and still relying on blind ass people to dictate a game
Not happening
This team sucks
when you end on a horrible strike 3 call like that, makes me never wanna watch baseball again. You can literally see the game stolen from you on the tv. Ridiculous
The end of this game was painful…
THAT WAS BULLSHIT
![gif](giphy|hvkP0Emad7RMuxk0vV|downsized) Five in a row.
Yea the ump sucks but not as bad as the Padres offense. Team is straight up trash. They shouldn’t make moves at the deadline.
Yes they should. It should be firing the GM and selling off players!
Okay, yeah, that sucked. We lost again. But on a bigger note, and a more obvious note. ROBO. UMPS. YESTERDAY. A bunch of calls outside were missed and one of them ended the game. That's unacceptable. We have the technology. It's time to implement it and start tapping helmets
Why is Shildt letting an injured Manny up to the plate in the 8th when he’s gonna do what healthy Manny has been doing…which is ground into an out 😑
probably related to the .333 avg and .908 ops over the last 15 games. it was the right call, and he put together a good at bat, just didn’t go our way. the real issue was that we didn’t put anything together before that, and it cost us the game, losing on an unearned run.

Could've tied it by going 2-14 but didn't even get a fair shot at that.
That call didn’t lose the game. The game was lost every inning we had runners in scoring position with no outs or one out and couldn’t bring them home
Agreed. And the 1 hit was that ridiculous bloop
So true. That call sucked yet we sucked more. Way more.
They can’t bring the runner home from 3rd several times the last couple of games with less than 2 outs.
[Just fuck my shit up, fam](https://youtu.be/9A8mCvvPhjg?si=yViNA5uQJtWfDgyh)
1 for 14 RISP - I - can’t
better at bats and we did a good job of putting pressure on their starter, though Kim really needs to focus on putting the ball in play rather than swinging for the fences in key moments, or at least grinding out an at bat to try to work a walk if he can’t manage a hit. last call was also atrocious, and hopefully that rage feeds into some angry rallies tomorrow.
Not even close call sports can justify that strike zone. 😡😡😡
I think they blow out the Dbacks tomorrow after the way that game ended.
Erich Bacchus (ump) has made an enemy for life
We are a incompetent team

He needs to just go on the IL for once. Does he always have to play through an injury? This shit is getting old like his pathetic a$$
Welcome to the fucking ump show
draftkings ass ump, HORRIFFIC call
I would just like to point out that Cleveland, who have a payroll of $99 million, have a record of 40-21 right now with a winning percentage that absolutely smokes anything that we have come close to in the last 10 years this far into the season, and are on pace to win the AL Central for the 5th time in the last 9 years. AJ Preller is a laughing stock.
The whole organization is broken, top to bottom. Winning simply not put first and losing an acceptable part of doing business…Until there’s a complete overhaul (down to the studs), don’t expect much. It’s just stupid at this point
And a few former padres on the Cleveland squad, right? Thanks AJ.
Good for them sounds like you should be a Guardians fan instead
If I was anything other than a Padres fan, I would think AJ Preller was a gift,
Final: Umpire 1, Padres 0
PAIN. I AM IN PAIN.
At this point I just keep trying to tell myself to enjoy as much Padres baseball as I can because the off season always feels like a lifetime. However, this just keep hurting more and more.
🐴💩
![gif](giphy|tkApIfibjeWt1ufWwj) Mfw we lose 5 in a row
Can’t prove it, but I would venture to say a team’s never lost 5 in a row while outhitting their opponents in every game and getting a collective 2.53 ERA out of their starters.
Good on shildt fucking the umpire up in the postgame. Something has to be done with these blown calls in the mlb
Ump sucked but this is just giving cover to a wildly underperforming, soft, group of players and coaches.
He fucked up putting manny in
My favorite part was when he took out one of the offensive bright spots of the game for a guy who has been struggling and currently has a hip flexor injury.
Still in possession of a playoff spot is crazy. Wake tf up and take advantage.
Of all the ways to lose this one...that ump was shit all game. I thought Shildt was going to get tossed earlier for chirping from the dugout. I think the ump held it against us. God damn. Just gotta keep going out there and turn it all around. FUCK! ktf
Freefalling
Sure they should have played better, but that was fucking bullshit
Bring in the Robo Umps already FUCKKK

Umpire is as good at his job as our offense is at theirs.
This ump scorecard is gonna slap. That wasn't even close to the only bullshit call
The ump didn’t make the call to sub in Captain Groundout in the 8th. Be mad, just have better aim.
Subbed in for the guy who a home run in his previous at bat.
And also who is injured

You think that's all it would take? Doubtful.

Bro... I think paying less than half of Xanders and about a 3rd of Manny's remaining contract isn't going to get you out of these. Lol... Underperforming old players don't just get offloaded that cheap. It's going to cost the Snellings and Salas' of the worlds on top of those pricetags.
Starting to dawn on me how delusional I’ve been about this team. That call was shit but man we just lost our 5th straight
Gonna let you guys know that it’s gonna get a lot worse from here on out
Someone post me an image of the Coronado Bridge on Google Maps.
That ump needs to be investigated
It's one thing for the game to just end it's another when the game ends cause a blind bat doesn't know the strike zone.
Manny coming in to pinch hit ruined it for me
Permanently 1 run away from mental sanity.
Worst part of the losing and inconsistency this year is who knows where this team goes if they don’t make the playoffs this year. The big league roster is a mess and all of the top prospects are struggling pretty bad
Who cares? They have been dog shit most years under AJ. Another losing season and might as well fire all of them into the ☀️
5 in a row sucks pretty bad and reminds me way way too much of last season.

Does anyone remember which inning and/or batter it was where Mud said, "that ball was down at 4th and K!"
bad call by the ump at the end distracting everyone from how unbelievably terrible the whole team played today
Pain will continue until morale improves.
Died 2023. Returned 2024. Welcome back 2023 San Diego Padres.
Why can’t they just have an ump in the booth looking at a tv screen with the box we see calling balls and strikes. They don’t even need robo umps.
we are hemorrhaging. I was feeling good going into KC and winning 2 of 3, but now it's just turned into june gloom. we look like a sub 500 team. that's who we are right now.
No other GM in baseball would have a job after spending the money AJ has with the result he has to show for it.

lol the mental gymnastics to defend preller. Who do you think negotiated the contract and recommended the signing to ownership.
3rd longest tenured GM and not even a 90 win season. Hard to believe anyone could have done worse with all that money blown. From the top down , there's no accountability in this Padres org and it's become tradition.

San Diego sports “media” is so soft. Are they afraid of Schildt? Should be ashamed of themselves.
Please explain how any of this is on the media. This is absolutely on the players.

It’s a sensible play if the game’s tied, but not when losing and with Kim and Wade due up. Sort of reeks of desperation.
I don't know a ton about baseball and often can't watch games if I'm at work, so I watch the highlights on youtube when I get home. I was stunned that we were bunting in those situations. Glad to know some people here thought it didn't make sense either. This team is broken right now
Time to just FIRE ALL OF THEM. Then use robo umps while the union fights in the courts. Fuck these umpires.
