Locked On Padres - Daily Podcast On The San Diego Padres

The San Diego Padres lose AGAIN to start a series — dropping their third straight series opener to begin the 2026 season — and the story is becoming painfully clear… 👉 They are NOT hitting. In a 5-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox, the Padres’ top five hitters went a combined 0-for-19, and the offense completely disappeared after briefly tying the game in the 5th inning. And here’s the reality… The Padres shouldn’t have even scored. Their only runs came after a routine fly ball was lost in the sun by Red Sox center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela — ruled a triple for Miguel Andujar — which opened the door for an RBI single from Gavin Sheets and an RBI double from Luis Campusano. Outside of that misplay? 👉 This was a Sonny Gray shutout performance. Meanwhile, Boston got big-time production from Marcelo Mayer, who delivered a home run, a double, and drove in runs — while the Padres’ stars never showed up. We also break down: • The controversial decision to pull Michael King one out away from escaping the 6th inning • Wandy Peralta giving up the back-breaking home run • The turning point of the game (4th inning escape → 5th inning tie → collapse) • Jake Cronenworth’s incredible unassisted double play (X-factor moment) • Why this offense continues to struggle with runners in scoring position • And what it means for a Padres team now sitting at 2-5 to start the season Boston snaps a 5-game losing streak with this win… And the Padres? They’re still searching for answers at the plate. 👇 Let’s break it all down. ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Padres and Red Sox play game 2 of this 3-game series tomorrow, with 1st pitch set for 1:10 p.m. PT, and RHP Randy Vasquez (1-0, 0.00 ERA) pitching for the Pads against LHP Connelly Early (0-0, 1.69 ERA) for the Red Sox. We will be here right after the game with your PADRES POSTCAST, hosted by Jim "Gries" Grieshaber. ——- Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/podcasts...

San Diego Padres shake off a slow start with Nick Pivetta’s dominant outing to salvage their series against the San Francisco Giants. Is the offensive turnaround for real, or do early-season struggles still haunt the lineup’s core? Host Javier Reyes and guest Jake Garegnani of CBS8 Sports spotlight Pivetta’s bounce-back performance, Ramon Laureano’s early spark, and the lineup’s aggressive shift under new manager Craig Stammen. Manny Machado and Xander Bogaerts’ clutch factor comes into question as the Padres wrestle with runners in scoring position woes. Key discussions include the durability of San Diego’s pitching rotation, whether Joe Musgrove’s return is crucial, and the impact of bold lineup changes. With NL West competition intensifying and key hitters searching for form, can the Padres’ revamped strategy spark a surge in the standings? Garyani offers insider perspective from the clubhouse on emerging storylines to watch this season. 00:00 — Padres vs. Giants Game Recap 08:35 — Managerial Changes & Team Vibes 19:54 — Padres Questions & Concerns Join Everydayer Club: https://lockedonpadres.supercast.com/ Follow on Twitter: https://mobile.twitter.com/Javiipeno Follow on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/javiipeno.bsky.social Follow on Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@javioos Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The San Diego Padres finally responded — and this one looked completely different. After struggling offensively through the first two games of the series, the Padres broke out for 7 runs on 10 hits to take down the San Francisco Giants 7–1 at Petco Park and avoid the sweep. Nick Pivetta set the tone early with a dominant outing, striking out 8 over 5 shutout innings while allowing just ONE hit. From there, the Padres bullpen slammed the door, finishing with 14 total strikeouts and holding the Giants to just 4 hits and 1 run. Offensively, this was the version of the Padres we’ve been waiting for — pressure early, execution in the middle innings, and a knockout punch late. Ramón Laureano delivered the biggest swing of the night with a two-run home run in the 8th inning, part of a 4-run frame that blew the game open. Gavin Sheets added two hits and two runs, while Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr. helped create scoring opportunities all night long. The Padres forced mistakes, drew walks, and capitalized — exactly what was missing in the first two games of this series. Now the question becomes: is this a turning point? 👇 In this episode: We break down the full game recap, key turning points, standout performances, and what this win means going forward. • Padres vs Giants full game recap • Nick Pivetta dominant outing (8 Ks, 1 hit) • Ramón Laureano 2-run HR breakdown 💣 • 8th inning explosion analysis • How Padres created runs early (pressure baseball) • Giants collapse: errors + bullpen meltdown • Padres offense finally clicking? • What this means going forward ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Padres hit the road for the 1st time this season, as they head to Boston to face the Red Sox in a 3-game series starting Friday. 1st pitch set for 11:10 a.m. PT, with (RHP) Michael King pitching for the Pads against (RHP) Sonny Gray for the Red Sox.

The Padres get run out of Petco Park as the Giants pile up 16 hits in a 9-3 win, and the biggest story isn’t just the loss — it’s the growing concern surrounding San Diego’s offense. After falling behind early, the Padres showed a brief spark in the 3rd inning to cut it to 4-3. But outside of that one inning, the offense disappeared once again. No sustained rallies. No pressure. No ability to build innings. Meanwhile, the Giants did exactly what winning teams do — they stacked at-bats, strung together hits, and kept constant pressure on the Padres’ pitching staff. Two big innings ultimately decided the game, but the deeper issue lies with San Diego’s inability to respond. This is no longer a one-game problem. Through the opening stretch of the season, the Padres lineup — led by Manny Machado, Fernando Tatis Jr., and Xander Bogaerts — has yet to produce consistent power or impact. The result is an offense that isn’t just cold… it’s becoming predictable. In this episode, we break down: Giants explode for 16 hits and dominate offensively Padres score in just one inning and go quiet again Turning point: Giants’ 6th inning breakout Why the Padres can’t build innings or apply pressure Lack of power from Machado, Tatis Jr., and the core German Márquez’s start and pitching struggles Giants’ approach vs Padres’ approach at the plate Is this already becoming a season-long offensive problem? “This isn’t a slump… this is a trend” ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Padres and Giants wrap up this 3-game series tomorrow, with 1st pitch set for 1:10 p.m. PT. RHP Nick Pivetta (0-1) will take the mound the Padres. RHP Adrian Houser will pitch for the Giants.

San Diego Padres' offense sputters yet again—can anyone step up before the pressure mounts? Host Javi Reyes dissects the Padres’ narrow 3-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants, spotlighting Jackson Merrill’s towering ninth-inning homer and raising tough questions about underperforming stars like Manny Machado, Fernando Tatis Jr., and Xander Bogaerts. With Walker Buehler showing glimpses as a fifth-starter and the bullpen remaining sharp, lineup woes and RISP struggles dominate the conversation. Javier Reyes explores how recent trends, questionable roster building, and lackluster designated hitter production from names like Nick Castellanos and Miguel Andújar are fueling fan frustration and early-season anxiety. Reyes breaks down the Padres’ high-leverage batting numbers, potential shakeups in the batting order, and what to expect facing Logan Webb and the Giants’ rotation next.

The Padres fall 3-2 to the Giants after being completely shut down offensively for most of the night. San Diego managed just ONE hit through eight innings before Jackson Merrill delivered a clutch two-run home run in the ninth to cut the deficit to one. Despite the late rally, the Padres offense continues to struggle early in the season. Manny Machado, Fernando Tatis Jr., and the top of the lineup have yet to provide power or consistent production, raising early concerns just four games into the year. Giants starter Landen Roupp dominated the Padres lineup, tossing six shutout innings while Harrison Bader’s third-inning home run proved to be the difference. We break down: • Padres offensive struggles • Merrill’s late HR • Roupp’s dominant outing • Lack of power from stars • What this means moving forward ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Padres and Giants play game 2 of this 3-game series tomorrow, with 1st pitch set for 6:40 p.m. PT.

The San Diego Padres defeat the Detroit Tigers 3-0 behind a dominant performance from Randy Vásquez and a shutdown bullpen. Vásquez delivered 6 shutout innings with 8 strikeouts, setting the tone early after escaping trouble in the first inning. Kyle Hart and Mason Miller combined for 3 scoreless innings to complete the shutout. Despite the win, the Padres offense continues to struggle with runners in scoring position, finishing 1-for-6 and leaving 8 runners on base. The Padres had multiple opportunities to blow the game open, including a bases-loaded situation and back-to-back singles in key moments, but failed to deliver the big hit. Ramon Laureano led the offense with a 3-hit night, providing consistent pressure at the plate. Fernando Tatis Jr. drove in his first RBI of the season, while Jackson Merrill also contributed an RBI. This game highlights a major early-season trend for the Padres: elite pitching paired with inconsistent offensive execution in big moments.

The San Diego Padres had this game in their hands — and let it slip away in the eighth inning. After leading twice (1-0 and 2-1), the Padres got strong pitching from Michael King (5 IP, 1 hit, 6 strikeouts) and Adrian Morejon (2 scoreless innings) but the offense missed some great chances (12 K's, 3-10 w/ RISP) bullpen couldn't hang on.. Offensively, Jackson Merrill led the way with two hits, a walk, and a run scored, while Ramon Laureano delivered a clutch RBI double to give San Diego the lead. But everything changed in the eighth inning. Jeremiah Estrada walked three straight hitters, and all three came around to score. The Tigers capitalized with timely hitting, scoring four runs in the inning to take control. Wandy Peralta couldn’t stop the damage, and the Padres bullpen collapse proved to be the difference. San Diego finished with 8 hits but only 2 runs, striking out 12 times and going 3-for-10 with runners in scoring position. We break down: The turning point in the 8th inning Jeremiah Estrada’s struggles Managerial decisions, including not using Mason Miller Jackson Merrill’s standout performance Padres offensive struggles with runners in scoring position If you’re a Padres fan, this one hurts — and raises big questions moving forward.

Arizona Diamondbacks and San Diego Padres eye sleeper status for the 2026 MLB season as Corbin Carroll and Fernando Tatis Jr. anchor their clubs’ postseason ambitions. Will the Diamondbacks pitching woes derail their high-octane offense like it did in 2025, or can young talents like Jordan Lawler and Ryan Waldschmidt spark a turnaround and surprise the NL West favorites?

San Diego Padres fans may have witnessed the steal of the offseason—can Michael King become the true ace in 2026? Javier Reyes breaks down King’s rollercoaster 2025 campaign and explains why the right-hander’s injury-plagued season hides his elite upside.

Javi also discusses the Padres’ starting pitching depth challenges, King’s three-year $75 million contract with player options, how his performance compares to other big name Padres like Dylan Cease and Joe Musgrove, and what made King special to begin with when the Padres first traded for him as the headliner.
