The Padres rebounded from a disastrous start to their crucial homestand, thanks to a key moment from Jake Cronenworth and a good outing from German Marquez. 

Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss Cronenworth's importance to the roster, and why it feels like the longest week ever after just two games with the Arizona Diamondbacks. 

The duo hear from Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill, who details why the team will show who they really are in the second half, as well as the tight knit bond on the team. But do Padres fans share Merrill's optimism? 

Marty and Darren read tweets from Padres fans on what they want the team to do at the trade deadline, including changing the coaching staff, and mixed opinions on being buyers or sellers. 

Darren wonders why the Padres sale is dragging out and if Major League Baseball is sending a pointed message.

Jackson Merrill says Padres best is ahead, should Friars buy or sell?

Are you not entertained??? 

Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the Padres series loss to the New York Mets, the hard-luck Michael King, and the electrifying Fernando Tatis Jr. Some players are built for the spotlight, Tatis is one of them. 

The two discuss his incredible grand-slam robbery and two-HR game versus the Mets and why this is the Tatis the Padres have been waiting for. For everything the Padres said about Tatis' production when he wasn't slugging, this is the version of Tatis that could propel the Padres into the playoffs.

Marty and Darren then discuss an important factor for the Padres with Casey Mize, Walker Buehler, Robbie Ray and Michael King producing four straight quality wins for the Padres. The two discuss Joe Musgrove making another rehab start and what Nick Pivetta is doing in Arizona. 

Darren and Marty then read tweets from Padres fans, who discuss whether their perspective on the team has changed from a month ago, when the Padres were under .500 and fans were questioning if they should sell at the deadline.

The sale of the San Diego to Kwanza Jones and Jose E. Feliciano is now complete.

Marty and Darren discuss what they want to see and hear from the new Padres ownership groups and how it may affect the business and baseball side of the team going forward. 

The two then discuss the Padres 2-1 loss to the New York Mets, having four baserunners thrown out at home plate, and how much the team's outlook has changed since trading for Casey Mize and Robbie Ray.

Padres new owners have big shoes to fill, Padres historic base running

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/84cad360-4290-4670-9dcd-b4aa0130e511/transcript

The San Diego Padres can control their own playoff destiny. Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the Padres being back in a playoff spot after a thrilling sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers, the hot Jackson Merrill and Fernando Tatis, and the evolving race in the National League. 

Should the Dodgers and Cubs be looking over their shoulders for their respective division and wild card lead as the Padres are finally playing their best baseball of the season? Marty and Darren welcome in former Padres All-Star closer Heath Bell to discuss what's changed most about this team since the trade deadline, the message that was sent at the trade deadline when A.J. Preller added to his team instead of selling, and how they've responded. 

How much pressure was on Michael King to be the guy amid pitching chaos? The three hear from King on the additions of Ray and Mize, and how much pressure he put on himself to be the ace of the rotation. 

The Padres are seeing some excllent production from Luis Campusano and Freddy Fermin, so why on earth would they consider calling up 20-year-old catching prospect Ethan Salas? Darren, Marty and Heath debate the good and bad of calling up Salas, and the impending return of Padres pitcher Joe Musgrove.
