[David]

the Padres may not be the best baseball team in San Diego

[Ding Dong Johnson]

so much for Bethancourt playing all over and pitching. 1 pitch, 1 cleat to the knee

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I'm much less upset about losing on Opening Night now that I remember I'm not a Padres fan.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

shoulda picked more NL West guys on my HR derby team

[bukie]

On the plus side, it's a better start than last year for the Padres.

in like half a season lol

[Derwood]

Well it's really not fair that the Padres get to use fictional players from MLB the Show on their team

[Ding Dong Johnson]

yeah, it sure isn't fair that like half of their 25 man roster is guys who are playing above low-A ball for the first time ever

What a mess that franchise is, geez

[Ding Dong Johnson]

but for real, their roster really is a hot mess. their opening day roster looks like the 8th inning of a 1st week of spring training game.
