Ep 143Preller Fires Tingler, But How Much of This Was the GM's Fault?
The move we've expected for weeks became official Wednesday: A.J. Preller fired Jayce Tingler. Darnay and Todd examine the news in a bonus episode. What ultimately led Preller to the decision? One common refrain from the Padres President of Baseball Operations seemingly directs responsibility back in his own direction. Hear from Preller what shortcoming stuck out this season, and why they ultimately decided a change in leadership was necessary. What does this mean for Preller's future? And what type of manager should he pursue?To join the #OnFriar conversation, tweet your Padres or San Diego sports thoughts and questions to Darnay (@DarnayTripp) and Derek (@DerekNBCSD).Catch NBC 7's San Diego Padres analysis at NBC7.com/OnFriar and all sports coverage at NBC7.com/SportsWrap.

Ep 142Now What? How Confident Are You That the Padres Can Fix the Padres?
The Padres have discovered depths of rock bottom we never knew existed. So, now what? Derek and Darnay discuss the obvious move that should immediately follow Game 162, then speculate what their next steps look like. Will A.J.
