As a Dodger fan, I can see how frustrating this can be for the Padres fanbase. You're being critical of your team because you want to see them win. Even if it means taking notes on how other teams do it, you just simply want to see your beloved San Diego Padres win it all.
When Tatis said, “it doesn’t matter because we’re still gonna win it all” at fan fest, Dodger fans have been laughing so hard every day since the Padres started struggling and they’ve continued to do so. What have Padre fans been doing when they hear it after a disastrous season like this?!

As A Dodger fan we need more owners like Peter, doing his best to give his franchise and fanbase a shot to win. Instead we get people like Fisher and how he's ruined the A's
1000% with you on this take. When SD went crazy spending last year, I honestly didn't mind it. I loved what they did. Not because they spent a lot to almost go broke, but instead it's telling owner small market owners to F off.
Fisher will ruin the A’s any city he goes to, pockets the revenue sharing money and trading away over performers when it comes time to get their fair pay day.

The further away we get from the 2022 season I think we will all admit the season was an anomaly. AJ Tingler Preller is defined by 2021 and 2023 seasons. 10 years and he’s done absolutely nothing. Seidler brought in the stars and AJ couldn’t deliver. His time is up.

That intro is a case study in situational hitting. If you're Juan Soto, you have the tying run in scoring position and the winning run on base, against a top 5 closer in baseball, and you know that a rookie and a glove first OF are coming behind you... you cannot take a walk there. Sure that may give you a *slightly* better chance to tie but your best chance to win in that spot is with you at the dish.
Yeah but also that last pitch was practically three feet inside. Was closer to hitting him than hitting the strike zone. I think any hitter in baseball takes that walk instead of trying to make that work lol
In a perfect world you’re correct. But if the pitcher isn’t challenging , then a walk is exactly what needed to, should have and did happen. This is where depth, and lack of clutch conveniently showed itself in consistent fashion for the 2023 padres.

I really like these seasonal analysis videos from you, about the Padres. I live close to Fort Wayne and I watch the Tincaps regularly, so I see a lot of padres prospects play and although I'm not a fan of any MLB team the Padres might be the most volatile team I've ever seen.
San Diego definitely jinxed themselves by calling themselves "the city of champions" after 1 playoff series win against the Dodgers. Unrelated but it was funny seeing their local news preaching they're the city of sports while only having 1 professional team.
I’m a Phillies Fan, I attended Game 4 of the Braves series on our sleeper World Series run, and not even 2 months later I attended Game 5 of the Phillies-Padres series that clinched our World Series Berth. And I remember, a younger Padres fan I front of me hugging his dad in front of me and that was the moment I realized that there are truly 2 sides to a Play-off series. Watching this Video brought back that memory, it was a heart-felt play-off run for Both Teams. And I genuinely feel bad for the little guy. This was a tough year for both teams, Phils getting bounced in the NLCS and the Padres struggling. But I love the content, and it really shows both sides of the Game. 🔥
I know I wrote the same thing on your previous video, but…you’re *really* good at this. The way you keep varying pace, tone, static vs. dynamic images, recurring use of structuring elements like the ‘big four in jeans & jerseys’ picture, it’s all just excellent. Somebody needs to hire you to do this on a bigger stage.
Life as a padres fan is pain, always has been and always will be. I just hope i can see a world series in my lifetime, my great grandpa was a season tucket holder from 1969 until the end of his life and he never got to enjoy a WS, I'm worried it'll be the same for me.
Ngl, Abrams, and Wood are the two guys who look solid right now and for the future. Gore looks bad, Hassell is struggling in AA, and Susana is what he is. Y'all definitely have a bright future. Abrams, Wood, and Crews are franchise guys. Wood is the only real loss for the Padres, though, as Abrams didn't have a spot in San Diego, unfortunately.
Absolutely fantastic video! As a Padres season ticket holder last season, it was definitely rough to see them lose so many close games with all the talent on the team. I totally agree with you though that they can bounce back this season and maybe snag a wild card spot! RIP Papa Pete
My entire family has been Friar Faithful since ‘69. I was 2 years old, sitting on my grandfathers’s lap, watching the game with him when we won the Pennant in ‘98 against the Braves. Being a Pads fan isn’t for the weak.
As a Padres fan going in BEFORE the video started, I already knew 4 things for certain. The Dodgers are bad, Matt Holiday NEVER touched home plate, Tony Gwynn is the GOAT and when whatever cursed cloud cover hanging over San Diego sports finally opens up and the light of a championship shines on the Friars...we know that Tony, Dick, Jerry, Ray and Peter are all gonna be beside themselves with joy up above us. Just like we'll be down here. Great video and Keep the Faith.
That Bogaerts signing is still a mind fuck. It felt like a very unnecessary signing especially after offering huge contracts to both Judge and Turner. It felt like they jut wanted to spend money on a big signing just to say "hey we signed a superstar!" instead of actually helping the team.
Yo I was at 2022 NLCS game 2 as well that’s crazy. That stadium was the loudest thing I had ever experienced, even louder than when I was at Qualcomm in 2013 when Ryan Succop missed the field goal kick that completed like a 6 game win streak the chargers needed to get into the playoffs
Damn, your passion in this video almost made me feel like a Padres fan. Hoping for a resurgence from the Padres in 2024, bc I don’t want the Dodgers to succeed bc they stole Yamamoto from my Yankees 😢😅
Wow, I tip my cap to you. Not a San Diego fan by any means but I think your video did an amazing job of pulling me in and making me feel the pain of the Padres fan's. Especially the end😢. Easily my favorite video that you've done so far and that's saying alot because you've done some fantastic videos. 👏 Thank you
The 2022 Padres were “special”? They didn’t win their division and they didn’t win or even make the World Series, how does that make them special? Padres fans have to basing their entire definition of success on how they fare against the Dodgers. Unless you want the team to put up a banner, “BEAT THE DODGERS IN THE 2022 NLDS”
This is why can rarely "buy" a World Series. Miami and Arizona did it and back in day's before the Draft the Yankees did it. You can literally take the prior year's All Star team and put them on one team and it guarantees nothing. I'll be 60 this year and have been a huge MLB fan my entire life but the 1st time it really hit me was when the Braves won it in 2021. It hit me for the opposite reason. If you would have told me the Braves would win the World Series "after" losing Acuna (easily one of the top 5 players in the game) I probably would have laughed in your face. That win really changed my perspective on building (buying) a team. Also if you looked at the team that many consider the ""Best Team Of All-time" the 1998 Yankees. No one looked at that roster and thought "Best Ever". We'll see if the Dodgers plan to buy a Trophy works out, it very well might. The baseball God's seem to have a strange sense of humor 😂🎉
This video was done very well because the long & short of it is, the difference between the 2022 & the 2023 seasons was in 22 we didn't hand out huge contracts that we didn't need to do & all the payers that got money didn't preform at all! RIP PETER!
yup, I watched a lot of padres games and it was so frustrating. So much leaving runners in scoring position, losing 1 run games, and choking in extra innings.
No other team owner would be seen walking around in a enemy stadium(D-Backs) with fans chanting his name again like Peter Seidler, Thank you for all that you have done for our city!
Not going to lie as a Padres fan the 2023 season does sting a bit but this video was so well made and it just reminded me why I love your content. Keep it up
A major problem with the 2023 padres was poor plate approaches, we don’t have a team like the Phillies, we need to manufacture runs, bunt the ball to move runners over, hit behind to avoid double plays. just overall poor baseball IQ
Not quite at the same scale, but they also went all in on 2015. Trading for Prime Kimbrel, trading for a Just-Past-Prime Kemp, Trading for Potential-Superstar Justin Upton and signing Then-Elite James Shields all in the same offseason. Padres have shown they're willing to spend in the past in terms of money and prospect capital, but they've yet to see it pay off in any way
After Tony Gwynn's, Peter Seidler's passing is the most painful to the Padres organization. Seidler gave us Padres fans a hope not seen since Ray Kroc, it was so refreshing to see a team owner that really cared about winning more than the bottom line, we felt as close to that championship as we ever were, and his passing brought many of us a sense of uncertainty about the team's direction. Thank you, Peter Seidler, and rest well! I'm sorry you couldn't see your efforts get rewarded.
The root cause of the padres disappointing 2023 was when those padres fans taunted Philly during the 2022 NLCS with “that’s what’s in”. They only beat the Phillies once ever since.
A few things that hold the Pads back other than timing and inconsistency: They are trash at developing major leaguers. The last Padre draftee to make an All-Star team with the Padres was Jake Peavy, who was not drafted this century. They have a pitchers park and tried to build an offensive juggernaut. Poor teams build pitchers parks because pitching is cheaper than offense. If you want to have pitchers park, you need guys who are going to hit .270. Their depth starters were shit. Cronenworth, Grisham, and the black hole at DH all heavily underperformed with the bat.
You must be new. The Padres went full 2010 Miami marlins. It never works. They spent above their means (which means market size in MLB because there’s only local revenue sharing NO national revenue sharing At ALL and no salary cap, which means that payroll IS A DIRECT RESULT OF MARKET SIZE. SD is not in the same market size league as NYY NYM PHI BOS LAD LAA CHC CHW). They also sold the farm literally, all in an attempt to go “all in”. It has already crashed and burned. They had the number one farm system a few years ago. Something that historically brings better results. But those teams that had better results (most recently the braves) they didn’t sell the farm completely with wild trades that crush your org depth and also mess with clubhouse culture. (When word got out they shopped Hosmer that clubhouse FLIPPED OUT). It sends the message that the management is always looking for the next been free agent or trade target. It’s cosplay 2000-2007 Yankees.
I normally dislike clicking on Padres content, as I don't want Padres videos in my feed. That said I had to click in this one, those SD teams were some of the least likeable teams in history.
@@Joshua-jh3kp They finished 20 games out of first, and beat a depleted LA pitching staff (not a Dodger fan) in a 5 game series in 2022. Never understood why they had such expectations in 2023. Talent wont get you far without the boring stuff like bullpen amd bench.
Excellent job on the video. As a Red Sox fan, I miss Don Orsillo's voice. Hopefully one day soon the Padres do win it all. But after Machado retires. I'll never forgive him for what he did to Pedroia. :)
In padres fashion I actually felt like giving up in august which I found peace in, and then they started playing like that in September and it only just made me feel more frustrated 😂
The part that sucks the most about that is that it's not like that's a trainable skill. That's not any mystical clutch stat or ability. That's just a bad luck streak up on a bad luck streak. And that makes you feel powerless to do anything about it
If I was a Padres fan, I would be absolutely pissed off at AJ preller and the front office. Sometimes it seems the FO doesn't know exactly what it's doing and just acts irrationally. The fact that they didn't sell during the 2023 trade deadline is gonna hurt them a lot coming the next few years. The padres could've got prospects for Wacha, Lugo, Hader, and Snell but Preller ignorantly chose to not sell. Now all those FA's are going to walk for pretty much nothing but comp picks. I understand not selling when ur a bit below .500 but seriously looking back that was a terrible mistake not too. Imagine the haul of prospects they could've got trading away all those guys.
Not only that, they did just refuse to sell. Preller doubled down and bought at the deadline. So on top of not getting guys back for impending free agents, friars lost more
2023 makes more sense when you realized they probably knew Seidler wasn't long for the world. Jake got hooked up for a clutch hit, basically. They didn't punt because they wanted to try to make a run for Pete.
Don Orsillo is the GOAT announcer. Get this man to announce the World Series. I remember his days broadcasting for the Red Sox, and I’m still pissed that NESN didn’t renew his contract.
All the best players on those teams are Hispanic superstars who played baseball for the millions rather than the love. Coming from poor countries, once they got their big paydays, they had no incentive to try to be the best or win. Not hard to see coming.
I know you’re a padres fan and we’re division rivals but PLEASE talk about the Rockies I want someone to talk about the rockies. Also keep up the good work great editing and commentary
Bleed Blue Dodger fan who greatly enjoyed the miserable season the Padres had. Then I got to the end of this video and learned about your former owner who I'd not paid much attention to beyond his comments on spending. I feel a little less bad about the playoff loss to the Padres in 2022 now, as I can't really begrudge a man like that getting to experience something as enjoyable as that was for the Padres and the fanbase.
I was at game 2 Phillies padres too, skipped class to see my teams only loss of the series lmao. I went to game 4 of the previous series vs dodgers best game I’ve been to crowd is electric
This kid gets the one thing wrong that all in his generation do consistently...what they think of as great talent is only paper talent and a lot of ifs and maybe's that don`t appear...No team can come together w/FA in one season and now your Padre`s get rid of Soto to the Yankees who know all about blowing money on paper lions,...stop trading young talent and let the Dodgers act like Yankees....

I’m a Phillies Fan, I attended Game 4 of the Braves series on our sleeper World Series run, and not even 2 months later I attended Game 5 of the Phillies-Padres series that clinched our World Series Berth. And I remember, a younger Padres fan I front of me hugging his dad in front of me and that was the moment I realized that there are truly 2 sides to a Play-off series. Watching this Video brought back that memory, it was a heart-felt play-off run for Both Teams. And I genuinely feel bad for the little guy. This was a tough year for both teams, Phils getting bounced in the NLCS and the Padres struggling. But I love the content, and it really shows both sides of the Game. 🔥
Bro your videos are always high quality, you deserve more subs
Thank you!
I know I wrote the same thing on your previous video, but…you’re *really* good at this.
The way you keep varying pace, tone, static vs. dynamic images, recurring use of structuring elements like the ‘big four in jeans & jerseys’ picture, it’s all just excellent. Somebody needs to hire you to do this on a bigger stage.
Thank you for the kind words!
Not even a Padres fan, but that last segment on Peter Seidler made me a bit of a padres fan moving forward. well done
Life as a padres fan is pain, always has been and always will be. I just hope i can see a world series in my lifetime, my great grandpa was a season tucket holder from 1969 until the end of his life and he never got to enjoy a WS, I'm worried it'll be the same for me.
I know because I just recently stopped being an Angels fan
@@JosephZiegler-s9t man it may be painful but I'd never give up on my pads, I've got too many childhood memories of Hoffman and Peavy
So sorry. At least the Padres management tries their best. Imagine being a Marlin fan like me.
As a Nationals fan we fleeced you guys in that Juan Soto trade and now we have such a bright future😊
Ngl, Abrams, and Wood are the two guys who look solid right now and for the future. Gore looks bad, Hassell is struggling in AA, and Susana is what he is. Y'all definitely have a bright future. Abrams, Wood, and Crews are franchise guys. Wood is the only real loss for the Padres, though, as Abrams didn't have a spot in San Diego, unfortunately.
@@CarsonWalker-t3wgot eeem!
Absolutely fantastic video! As a Padres season ticket holder last season, it was definitely rough to see them lose so many close games with all the talent on the team. I totally agree with you though that they can bounce back this season and maybe snag a wild card spot! RIP Papa Pete
Great video as always. Also the Kershaw Curse on the Padres is real, the numbers don't lie... the Baseball Gods were furious
Wonderful video!
My entire family has been Friar Faithful since ‘69.
I was 2 years old, sitting on my grandfathers’s lap, watching the game with him when we won the Pennant in ‘98 against the Braves.
Being a Pads fan isn’t for the weak.
As a Dodger fan the amount of shit Padres fans talked the whole offseason just for them to fall flat on their face was satisfying to say the least
As a Padres fan going in BEFORE the video started, I already knew 4 things for certain. The Dodgers are bad, Matt Holiday NEVER touched home plate, Tony Gwynn is the GOAT and when whatever cursed cloud cover hanging over San Diego sports finally opens up and the light of a championship shines on the Friars...we know that Tony, Dick, Jerry, Ray and Peter are all gonna be beside themselves with joy up above us. Just like we'll be down here. Great video and Keep the Faith.
You sir, are great at this. Just a terrific video. Extremely well done.
That being said, you forgot one thing for your Padres 101. Padres gonna Padre.
13:27 god bless mookie betts for securing my parley that night
How much did u make ?
Damn, this was an excellent video. Well done 👏
I enjoyed this video. Very informational. Nice job!
Great video man, subscribed
What a well organized, excellent video! New sub here
Thank you!
“Falling short in high pressure situations wasn’t new for the 2023 Padres.” We can say the same thing about the 2023 Mariners.
The Mariners always choke. Never swallow the problem down
That Bogaerts signing is still a mind fuck. It felt like a very unnecessary signing especially after offering huge contracts to both Judge and Turner. It felt like they jut wanted to spend money on a big signing just to say "hey we signed a superstar!" instead of actually helping the team.
Yo I was at 2022 NLCS game 2 as well that’s crazy. That stadium was the loudest thing I had ever experienced, even louder than when I was at Qualcomm in 2013 when Ryan Succop missed the field goal kick that completed like a 6 game win streak the chargers needed to get into the playoffs
Man I completely forgot about that missed field goal. Crazy that was a decade ago
Damn, your passion in this video almost made me feel like a Padres fan. Hoping for a resurgence from the Padres in 2024, bc I don’t want the Dodgers to succeed bc they stole Yamamoto from my Yankees 😢😅
COPE. Won't happen. #dodgernation
Yankees 🤝 Padres
This aged well
As a Padres fan this was a hard watch....great video...but dammit a hard watch
Wow, I tip my cap to you. Not a San Diego fan by any means but I think your video did an amazing job of pulling me in and making me feel the pain of the Padres fan's. Especially the end😢.
Easily my favorite video that you've done so far and that's saying alot because you've done some fantastic videos. 👏
Thank you
The 2022 Padres were “special”?
They didn’t win their division and they didn’t win or even make the World Series, how does that make them special?
Padres fans have to basing their entire definition of success on how they fare against the Dodgers. Unless you want the team to put up a banner, “BEAT THE DODGERS IN THE 2022 NLDS”
This is why can rarely "buy" a World Series. Miami and Arizona did it and back in day's before the Draft the Yankees did it. You can literally take the prior year's All Star team and put them on one team and it guarantees nothing.
I'll be 60 this year and have been a huge MLB fan my entire life but the 1st time it really hit me was when the Braves won it in 2021.
It hit me for the opposite reason. If you would have told me the Braves would win the World Series "after" losing Acuna (easily one of the top 5 players in the game) I probably would have laughed in your face.
That win really changed my perspective on building (buying) a team.
Also if you looked at the team that many consider the ""Best Team Of All-time" the 1998 Yankees. No one looked at that roster and thought "Best Ever".
We'll see if the Dodgers plan to buy a Trophy works out, it very well might. The baseball God's seem to have a strange sense of humor 😂🎉
This video was done very well because the long & short of it is, the difference between the 2022 & the 2023 seasons was in 22 we didn't hand out huge contracts that we didn't need to do & all the payers that got money didn't preform at all!
RIP PETER!
yup, I watched a lot of padres games and it was so frustrating. So much leaving runners in scoring position, losing 1 run games, and choking in extra innings.
I knew a video about the Padres was going to be sad, but I didn't think I was going to cry at the end
Padre fan here ..Posting that image of Kershaw was bush league ..and low grade behavior ..I’d have fired whoever was responsible for that ..
We Blue Jays fans in Toronto feel this pajn. Because we had the EXACT same 2023 in terms of frustration with our boys.
As a Mets fan, this hits closer to home than I wish it would
You should watch the baseball doesn't exist video on the 2020 mets. Least clutch team ever.
18:25 - That's crazy that fly ball by Tatis ended up being an out!
No other team owner would be seen walking around in a enemy stadium(D-Backs) with fans chanting his name again like Peter Seidler, Thank you for all that you have done for our city!
Not going to lie as a Padres fan the 2023 season does sting a bit but this video was so well made and it just reminded me why I love your content. Keep it up
A major problem with the 2023 padres was poor plate approaches, we don’t have a team like the Phillies, we need to manufacture runs, bunt the ball to move runners over, hit behind to avoid double plays. just overall poor baseball IQ
Got me a bit emotional love you Peter
Not quite at the same scale, but they also went all in on 2015. Trading for Prime Kimbrel, trading for a Just-Past-Prime Kemp, Trading for Potential-Superstar Justin Upton and signing Then-Elite James Shields all in the same offseason. Padres have shown they're willing to spend in the past in terms of money and prospect capital, but they've yet to see it pay off in any way
Note that the 2015 team finished under .500, and with a worse record than the 2014 Padres, whose star player was a 31 year old Seth Smith
problem: Juan Soto is a bit overrated. bad fielder and baserunner, stuffs stats in garbage time. And Bob Melvin was too player friendly.
A bit unrelated but this video really reminded me how ready I am for baseball season to start again
Watching mookie hit that game tying hr live was so awesome
It was something good for dodgers fans ig
After Tony Gwynn's, Peter Seidler's passing is the most painful to the Padres organization. Seidler gave us Padres fans a hope not seen since Ray Kroc, it was so refreshing to see a team owner that really cared about winning more than the bottom line, we felt as close to that championship as we ever were, and his passing brought many of us a sense of uncertainty about the team's direction.
Thank you, Peter Seidler, and rest well! I'm sorry you couldn't see your efforts get rewarded.
The root cause of the padres disappointing 2023 was when those padres fans taunted Philly during the 2022 NLCS with “that’s what’s in”. They only beat the Phillies once ever since.
8:24 Twins fan here. We have a new logo now 😂
A few things that hold the Pads back other than timing and inconsistency:
They are trash at developing major leaguers. The last Padre draftee to make an All-Star team with the Padres was Jake Peavy, who was not drafted this century.
They have a pitchers park and tried to build an offensive juggernaut. Poor teams build pitchers parks because pitching is cheaper than offense. If you want to have pitchers park, you need guys who are going to hit .270.
Their depth starters were shit. Cronenworth, Grisham, and the black hole at DH all heavily underperformed with the bat.
You must be new. The Padres went full 2010 Miami marlins. It never works. They spent above their means (which means market size in MLB because there’s only local revenue sharing NO national revenue sharing At ALL and no salary cap, which means that payroll IS A DIRECT RESULT OF MARKET SIZE. SD is not in the same market size league as NYY NYM PHI BOS LAD LAA CHC CHW). They also sold the farm literally, all in an attempt to go “all in”. It has already crashed and burned. They had the number one farm system a few years ago. Something that historically brings better results. But those teams that had better results (most recently the braves) they didn’t sell the farm completely with wild trades that crush your org depth and also mess with clubhouse culture. (When word got out they shopped Hosmer that clubhouse FLIPPED OUT). It sends the message that the management is always looking for the next been free agent or trade target. It’s cosplay 2000-2007 Yankees.
Good try. Might explain the ineffectual approach for the managers of the team. Although incomplete, a good discussion starter
I normally dislike clicking on Padres content, as I don't want Padres videos in my feed. That said I had to click in this one, those SD teams were some of the least likeable teams in history.
Totally agreed. I hated them because they won and were so damn talented
@@Joshua-jh3kp They finished 20 games out of first, and beat a depleted LA pitching staff (not a Dodger fan) in a 5 game series in 2022. Never understood why they had such expectations in 2023. Talent wont get you far without the boring stuff like bullpen amd bench.
I am morally obligated as a Rockies fan to clarify: Matt Holiday absolutely did touch home plate.
Great video!!!
Excellent job on the video. As a Red Sox fan, I miss Don Orsillo's voice. Hopefully one day soon the Padres do win it all. But after Machado retires. I'll never forgive him for what he did to Pedroia. :)
3:49 I remember exactly where I was for that grand slam, it was unbelievable to watch.
The Curse of Kershaw? No, please no. No, it’s the Cursehaw
Hits close to home as a Jays fan who didn't have faith that we'd get to the ALDS.
I hope you're resting well, Peter. You deserved better. I hope other owners and wealthy folk heed your example.
That UT99 tune in the end huh! Awesome.
In padres fashion I actually felt like giving up in august which I found peace in, and then they started playing like that in September and it only just made me feel more frustrated 😂
In high leverage situations, Bogearts had more GIDP than hits. Him and manny especially absolutely stunk in high leverage situations
The part that sucks the most about that is that it's not like that's a trainable skill. That's not any mystical clutch stat or ability. That's just a bad luck streak up on a bad luck streak. And that makes you feel powerless to do anything about it
Nice video!
Awesome video man, I was about to be homeless, but thanks to this video I’m a better path🤝
what a legend amazing video, hope my padres can make things better
As a outsider looking in. The Padres should be good. I get the struggles but I can tell you so many times I was tense with the amount of people on.
Who would have ever thought Machado, Tatis & Soto would crap out?
Lol. They’re all me first players who got paid. There’s no drive in any of them
Petco Park loud?
Sure. When the Giants are the "visiting" team, it does indeed get loud 😭😭
Wow. Every fan of every team could and would say a thing that they should,like you. Nicen job Bud
If I was a Padres fan, I would be absolutely pissed off at AJ preller and the front office. Sometimes it seems the FO doesn't know exactly what it's doing and just acts irrationally. The fact that they didn't sell during the 2023 trade deadline is gonna hurt them a lot coming the next few years. The padres could've got prospects for Wacha, Lugo, Hader, and Snell but Preller ignorantly chose to not sell. Now all those FA's are going to walk for pretty much nothing but comp picks. I understand not selling when ur a bit below .500 but seriously looking back that was a terrible mistake not too. Imagine the haul of prospects they could've got trading away all those guys.
Not only that, they did just refuse to sell. Preller doubled down and bought at the deadline. So on top of not getting guys back for impending free agents, friars lost more
2023 makes more sense when you realized they probably knew Seidler wasn't long for the world. Jake got hooked up for a clutch hit, basically. They didn't punt because they wanted to try to make a run for Pete.
Don Orsillo is the GOAT announcer. Get this man to announce the World Series. I remember his days broadcasting for the Red Sox, and I’m still pissed that NESN didn’t renew his contract.
Yeah no. Joe Davis is the GOAT now.
On paper a really good team but with no leadership and the large ego of a lot of there players the team was destined to fail
I knew when Tatis said they were going to win it all that 2023 would be a disaster
Still blows my mind how two stacked teams with the Mets and Padres could suck so bad last year.
All the best players on those teams are Hispanic superstars who played baseball for the millions rather than the love. Coming from poor countries, once they got their big paydays, they had no incentive to try to be the best or win.
Not hard to see coming.
editing 10/10
Padres tripped over themselves for years trying to help the Red Sox out. They frankly deserve all the adversity they're facing.
I know you’re a padres fan and we’re division rivals but PLEASE talk about the Rockies I want someone to talk about the rockies. Also keep up the good work great editing and commentary
Bleed Blue Dodger fan who greatly enjoyed the miserable season the Padres had. Then I got to the end of this video and learned about your former owner who I'd not paid much attention to beyond his comments on spending. I feel a little less bad about the playoff loss to the Padres in 2022 now, as I can't really begrudge a man like that getting to experience something as enjoyable as that was for the Padres and the fanbase.
I was at game 2 Phillies padres too, skipped class to see my teams only loss of the series lmao. I went to game 4 of the previous series vs dodgers best game I’ve been to crowd is electric
This is beautiful
Now i wanna know the leverage index of freedie freeman at-bat vs the yankees in the world series 🤔
This kid gets the one thing wrong that all in his generation do consistently...what they think of as great talent is only paper talent and a lot of ifs and maybe's that don`t appear...No team can come together w/FA in one season and now your Padre`s get rid of Soto to the Yankees who know all about blowing money on paper lions,...stop trading young talent and let the Dodgers act like Yankees....
feel like signing Bogaerts might’ve been a clubhouse killer . moved so many guys around for no reason
Just a bad signing
Only 10 more years
Love the silent intro where you paused your chaotic mess video then looked at your pin stating, “November 8 2023: Championship Video?”. What you thought was going to happen, then pulled up articles on what actually happened
