Reeling Padres swept again, did Preller make a mistake on Castellanos?
About this episode
Marty Caswell and Darren Smith discuss the San Diego Padres' struggles, including a five-game losing streak and the implications of cutting Nick Castellanos.
The San Diego Padres are a wretched baseball team right now. Marty Caswell and Darren Smith discuss the Padres five-game losing streak after being swept by the Phillies. How much was Manny Machado affected by the decision to cut Nick Castellanos? The two discuss Machado's close relationship with Castellanos, his comments on the release and why on earth it makes zero sense to go with two unproven rookies in Samad Taylor and Jase Bowen. Yes, Padres fans want and need to vent. The show answers some questions from extremely frustrated fans on the poor offense, Manny Machado, the coaching staff and if AJ Preller is being held accountable. Is this a crucial homestand for the Padres and why hasn't the sale to Jose E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones been approved yet? Darren and Marty look ahead to the upcoming homestand versus the Mets and Reds. 🌶️ Friar Territory is the official San Diego Padres podcast in the Foul Territory Network. Subscribe!
