The San Diego Padres have a legitimate playoff rotation. Darren Smith and Marty Caswell welcome in Kyle Glaser to break down the addition of Robbie Ray and Casey Mize, and what the Padres gave up in return.
The three discuss how much the rotation has been strengthened amid their fight for a wild card spot and the pressure it takes off Michael King.
Marty then details her trip to Lake Elsinore to watch the rehab starts of Joe Musgrove and Nick Pivetta, and the odd scene when Pivetta walked off the mound after two outs. Padres officials said Pivetta felt something in his elbow during his first rehab start, what does it mean for his future? The three discuss the the August 22nd deadline for Pivetta to return or potentially have his player option for $32 million voided and what it means if he did indeed have a setback.
The show then hears from Joe Musgrove on his encouraging start, what he's seen from Pivetta and what it means to have Casey Mize and Robbie Ray join the Padres playoff push. Kyle Glaser then breaks down what's changed with the Padres offense that turned them from one of the worst offense's in the league to who we thought they would be.
