Are the San Diego Padres finally playing their best baseball at just the right time? 

Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the sweep over the Atlanta Braves, the contrasting ways they found to win each game, and why J.P. Sears outing may have been the most impressive game of all. 

Next up, the Los Angeles Dodgers, who are coming off a sweep of their own versus the Atlanta Braves. T

he two discuss Samad Taylor's daily spark, and hear his comments on why he likes batting second between Fernando Tatis and Manny Machado. Marty and Darren also hear from Ty France, who had another big home run in the Padres 5-2 win on if the offense has finally found what they've been searching for. 

The show then welcomes Kyle Glaser back to the show, who breaks down what he's seen from the Padres. Are the Padres a better team with Taylor than they were with Ramon Laureano, considering all of the different ways he impacts the lineup? Glaser gives a lot of credit to AJ Preller and his baseball staff and discusses Sears' X factor. 

Speaking of the starting pitching, the trio discuss a positive step for Joe Musgrove and Nick Pivetta, and the best case scenario for either or both to return. Marty, Darren and Kyle then look ahead to the juicy pitching matchups versus the Dodgers, starting with Roki Sasaki, who shunned the Padres for Los Angeles, and Walker Buehler facing his former team.
