Michael King was impressive in his Cactus League debut but do the Padres spring training stats really matter? 

Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss why spring stats only matter for certain players, and confidence in the Padres rotation after a reassuring outing for King. 

The more we talk about Fernando Tatis batting cleanup, the crazier that idea actually sounds. Darren breaks down what the numbers say about the best players in baseball and where they bat and we hear from Padres manager Craig Stammen on the players finding their comfort zone in the order. 

Opening day is exactly a month away. Will we know who the Padres next owner is by then? The latest buzz on the known candidates, which one best suits John Seidler's preferred criteria for San Diego ties, and who insiders predict will be the guy.
