After a weekend sweep the Padres met their bold new owners, the vibes were great - and then that Pirates series happened. Derek and Darnay discuss what went wrong, and where there are areas of concern. What's going on with Manny? And what have we seen from Merrill? There were encouraging pitching performances, and updates on a few key arms. Mason Miller gave up a homer, but responded like a stud. Plus, Jose and Kwanza are here.
