San Diego Padres

According to Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette the Pittsburgh Pirates are set to recall super utility man Tucupita Marcano. In recent days the youth movement has been on for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Since Sunday, the team has promoted top relief pitching prospects Yerry De Los Santos, top starting pitching prospects Roansy Contreras, and outfield prospect Cal Mitchell. It appears that another prospect is on the way.

The San Diego Padres have been trailing the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West standings all season, but not by much. Despite having a great record and strong roster this season, the Padres don’t have enough in the tank to overtake the Dodgers offensively. They need a much stronger lineup to compare.

Devin Smeltzer will make his third start of the season for the Minnesota Twins on Thursday when he faces the Kansas City Royals. Smeltzer, who’s bounced between the Twins and Triple-A St. Paul, steps in for Joe Ryan, who landed on the COVID list. Smeltzer, who’s 1-0 with a...

The New York Mets have injuries to key pitchers, and one franchise legend is still hoping for another shot with the team. Bartolo Colon, the ageless wonder, turned 49 on Tuesday. Even at his age he still apparently wants to pitch in the bigs. Z101 Digital’s Hector Gomez shared a...

The Milwaukee Brewers pushed across two runs against Yu Darvish in the top of the seventh Wednesday afternoon to defeat

San Diego Padres fans now have a timeline of when Fernando Tatis Jr. might bring his All-Star skills back to the San Diego lineup. However, there are still some questions looming about the 23-year-old shortstop/outfielder leading up to, and likely after, his return. Here are 3 questions we have about...

After blowing out the Nationals in back-to-back games, the Dodgers missed out on a sweep due to being shutout in a 1-0 loss. The Dodgers had one hit with a runner on. After bouncing back in his last start, Julio Urias continued that momentum tonight, pitching well again and showing improved stuff.

On the latest episode of Talking Friars, I give you my thoughts on all that went down during the Padres series loss to the Brewers including how San Diego was even able to win a game this series, Blake Snell bouncing back, Yu Darvish pitching well but the offense not backing him up, and Manny Machado’s bobble head night!

Blowouts combined with postponements filled the day for San Diego Padres minor league affiliates. The El Paso Chihuahuas got a big boost from players whom Padres fans got to watch at the big leagues earlier this year, and the San Antonio Missions received strong relief outings from two young padres pitchers who are looking to work back to majors.

Milwaukee won another series, this time against the San Diego Padres, after winning the rubber match Wednesday. Aaron Ashby was on the mound for the Brewers facing Yu Darvish. Ashby pitched well throughout the game, allowing only one run as a replacement for the injured Freddy Peralta in the starting rotation.

The Padres are a quarter in and we can’t wait to see what’s next either. “We’re never out of it,” Padres pitcher Nick Martinez said. “I really believe that.”. Martinez was singing the Padres’ praises after Monday’s 3-2 come-from-behind win over the Milwaukee Brewers. It was yet another squeaker falling the Padres’ way, as they lead the majors in one-run victories and maybe thrills, too.

That sound you hear is 50,000 Yankees fans fury-clicking this article in unison to defend Anthony Rizzo’s honor, and they’re about to be sadly mistaken about its intentions. Put away those pitchforks. Put ’em back in your chicken buckets. Yes, the Yankees made a wise move adding...

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Rowdy Tellez doubled off Yu Darvish to bring in the tying run in the seventh inning and Tyrone Taylor followed with a sacrifice fly for the Milwaukee Brewers, who beat the San Diego Padres 2-1 Wednesday to take two of three. Darvish (4-2) was brilliant...

Loss to Brewers underscores gulf between run production at Petco Park versus on road

There’s only so far that good pitching can carry you. The San Diego Padres anemic offense struggled for the second straight day, scoring just one (unearned) run. Yu Darvish put together another strong start, working 6.2 innings, and was tagged for just two runs. Robert Suarez pitched a scoreless 1.1 innings, but the Padres couldn’t scrap across the tying run.

The Milwaukee Brewers won their first of three straight road series by beating the San Diego Padres 2-1 Wednesday afternoon in the rubber match of their three-game series. Down 1-0 into the seventh, Rowdy Tellez doubled home a run to tie the game. With a runner at third Tyrone Taylor...

The St. Louis Cardinals have been using their farm system more than usual this season. In doing so, how have their prospects done in the majors?. Entering this season, the St. Louis Cardinals were a wild card. This team fluctuated from being the best team in the National League Central, potential World Series contender, with some feeling that they would miss the playoffs.

Tyrone Taylor greeted Padres reliever Craig Stammen with a three-run homer in the sixth inning Tuesday night to lead the visiting Milwaukee Brewers to a 4-1 victory in San Diego. Right-hander Corbin Burnes (2-2) held the Padres to one run on five hits and two walks with five strikeouts over...
