The Dodgers and Padres go back at it, after splitting two games in Korea to kick off the season. Since then, the Padres are off to a more tepid start, but they did take a series from the Cubs (albeit, playing at home), which is something the Dodgers couldn't do at Wrigley last week.
Jake Cronenworth is batting .304 with a .883 OPS, and Jurickson Profar is batting .333 with a 1.012 OPS. But their stars Fernando Tatis (batting .263), Xander Bogaerts (.237), and Manny Machado (.220) haven't come to life yet...though I expect them to bring their A-games to Chavez Ravine.
Saturday is Brusdar Graterol Bobblehead night, and the Dodgers' PR team is so excited, they referenced the wrong opponent on the ad (the Nationals come unto town Monday 4/15):
Graterol is on the 60-day IL with shoulder inflammation, so we won't see him in this homestand anyway.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 251 of 251Oh wow, it's really cold outside. Having second thoughts about this run.
0-0, mid-2
Muncy is looking a bit more comfortable at third on defense. Let's hope that sticks.
200
We flip the page!
Teoscar grounds to third. One out.
The Padres don't have anyone in their lineup under .200. We've got both Outman (.184) and Lux (.174) below Mendoza.
Outman lines to first.
Kiké lines to third.
0-0 through 2.
does been a while since i witnessed a page flip. kudos
shit. Paxton gives up a double to Rosario
2 on for Tatis
Oh man, not looking good here for (Bill) Paxton.
Paxton walks Tatis so now the bases are juiced. One out. Not good.
Cronenworth set to break this open.
fuck. bases juices after tatis walks
Hey, Cronenworth GIDPs! Whoo hoo!
yes. double play
Dodgers go down 1-2-3 in the third.
Now Darvish is at 46 pitches, Paxton at 53 pitches.
Machado goes yard. 1-0 SD.
that sucked
Paxton stops any further damage, despite allowing two more baserunners.
1-0 SD, mid-4
Dodgers have Freeman, Smith, Muncy. Let's go.
paxton gets out of it
freeman double!
fuck yeah. slappy singles in freeman
Smith with an RBI!
muncy!!
all these in screen statistics and graphs on every other pitch is making me hate baseball. i just want to watch a fucking game. shit sucks like ESPN
That’s eight walks for Paxton. Gotta pull him.
Brasier warming up. That’s not good—he was bad on Friday.
this aint gonna end well
Brasier comes in and promptly walks Kim. Great.
Campusano GIDPs but a run scores. 3-2 LA, Profar on third.
And, it's promptly tied up. Brasier coughed up that lead pretty quickly.
3-3, Merrill on second, Tyler Wade PH for Rosario.
Wade grounds out to end the inning.
3-3 tie, mid-6.
I was cheering for the Dodgers' offense during my run. Now I am wondering if I should have stayed out there for more mileage.
Darvish out as well. De Los Santos in, who went 0.2 IP on Friday (1 K, 1 BB, 0 H)
Slappy leadoff single!
(we'll strand him, though)
Slappy got that single on an 0-2 count. Nice.
Muncy up 3-0, then a called strike 1 that looks like it was outside.
3-2 count to Max.
Muncy with an infield popup. Ugh.
Here's Teo
Padres bring in Yuki Matsui, a lefty, to go against Outman. And it works--Outman quickly goes down on four pitches.
3-3 tie through 6.
Feyereisen now has given up a leadoff walk and then a single that advances Bogaerts to second. None out.
This San Diego team shows it can fight back from deficits. That's a big difference from last year. And they seem even more hungry than we do.
Feyersen walks Cronenworth! That's our 11th walk of the game. What the fuck, Dodgers?
Bases-clearing double for Profar, who gets revenge from yesterday.
It's 6-3 San Diego.
fuck
Ohtani with a leadoff base hit, but it's wasted.
6-3 SD through eight.
Welp, that’s what you get with a crappy bottom of the order.
PGT up.
