Episode Details

How much better are the Padres after the surprising signing of Lucas Giolito?

Darren Smith and Marty Caswell are joined by former All-Star closer Heath Bell to discuss Giolito's signing, how long it will take him to get caught up to speed, and how he fits the team's rotation. There are plenty of teams that were looking for starting pitching so why were the Padres right fit? Heath discusses what goes on behind the scenes when free agents choose a team and what would have happened if he had walked away from a $19 million dollar option when he was playing.

Giolito. Campusano. That's a lot of syllables in that pair and a possible tandem in the coming weeks. Darren, Marty and Heath discuss Campusano's production and what it means to have a manager that believes in him and actually gives him a chance to play.

Mason Miller continues to be a cheat code but will his next opportunity to break Cla Meredith's Padres record for consecutive scoreless innings come in Colorado or Arizona?

The last Padres ownership created fan buzz and goodwill by changing to the brown uniforms. What can this new group led by Jose Feliciano do? The trio discusses, and yes it circulates around Ramon Laureano, Mason Miller, and beer prices.
