MadFriars' John Conniff: "If the Padres hadn't made the Soto trade..."
Darren and John talk about the injuries piling up for the San Diego Padres before bringing on John Conniff to provide a perspective on the team's farm system and prospects for the future.
Darren Smith and John Gennaro talk for a bit about the San Diego Padres' injury issues. Jackson Merrill is on the 10-day injury list, Fernando Tatis Jr. left last night's game with another shoulder injury and Jake Cronenworth is still feeling that fastball to the ribs. How much should Padres fans be worrying?
Then, John Conniff from MadFriars joins the show to talk about how the big-league squad would look different had they never traded for Juan Soto, Jackson Merrill's injury history in the minors, comparisons between Ethan Salas and Austin Hedges, and an unfortunate nickname for Tirso Ornelas.
