The Padres, like the New York Mets over in the NL East, were supposed to use their big-name roster to romp to the divisional crown.
And here we are in September 2023, and the Padres are in fourth place and 10 games under .500, 21 games behind the NL West-leading Dodgers, whose divisional lead against second-place Arizona is so fat, that we're starting three dudes who weren't even on the roster the first half of the year.
Sure, we might get swept by San Diego at home this series. But with a magic number of only 7 with 20 games to play, it's not worth losing any sleep about this "rivalry series." Let's just have some fun.

I agree on the let's have fun sentiment for this series. I think we need to see Kike in his banana costume sometime soon.
@Quad! Nice call dude
Betts with yet ANOTHER leadoff HR to tie the game at 1.
Dodgers take a 2-1 lead on a Rojas HBP
Mookie lines out to short for the second out.
Rancho ardiendo for Freeman
Freeman grounds to second. Dammit.

Ugh, that was a bad loss.
Amazing how one error can cause such a landslide of crap. Gotta talk out there! Let's get it back today.

Freeman 1B
Smith C
Muncy 3B

ugh. Lance Lynn. do I even want to look at the score?
11-2 WIN! Kyle Hurt strikes out the side in the ninth inning in his major league debut!
And Lance Lynn actually had a pretty good outing (solo HR to Tatis)!
That's good.
Might be nice if the Dodgers tried here in game 3
