00:0011-1. The Dodgers had all kinds of problems. Of course, they did a bullpen game last night too,
00:06and they just kept giving up run after run after run. There was a huge basis for a triple by
00:11Jackson Merrill. And when you're giving up home runs to Martin Maldonado, you know you've got
00:18all kinds of problems on Padres TV.
00:21Centered to right is Pajas. Oscar Hernandez coming out of the game. Driven to deep left
00:26by Martin Maldonado. It's gone. Home run. 6-0 Padres. Home run number three of the year
00:33for Martin Maldonado.
00:36My guy, Manny Machado with five RBIs, and he made a couple of just spectacular snags at
00:45third base and throws to first. He does it all. I mean, as you know, he's one of my favorite
00:51players, bar none. Yes. Seven scoreless innings for Dylan Cease as well for the Padres. And
00:59then the Dodgers basically laid down. They had Quique Hernandez pitch the last three innings.
01:04So they just completely laid down in that game.
01:07Threw in the towel.
01:08Took everybody out. Threw in the towel. They took everyone out. Hernandez, Betts, Otani,
01:13everybody came out of the game, and they laid it down for this afternoon. Speaking of Otani,
01:18as we mentioned before, he's been throwing a lot. Threw on the mound yesterday for some
01:24live BP. Word on the street is, is that he may return to the Dodger rotation before the
01:29All-Star break.
01:30I don't know either way.
01:32We shall see.
01:32I really don't. Like, what is the second week of July going to do for you? He's already
01:37been throwing. He's been throwing simulated. He's been throwing batting practice. He's obviously
01:46fixed. His arm is fixed. He's healthy. There's nothing wrong with him. He's hitting home runs.
01:53Their entire pitching staff is on the IL. What a perfect time, better than now, to throw him
02:00out there and see what he's made of. We already know how good he can pitch. What is the second
02:05week of July going to do? Give him more time to do what? Go surfing? There's no reason he's
02:11not ready to go. I watched him yesterday throw twice. I mean, the guy was throwing gas and he
02:17was throwing sliders. He was throwing every pitch in his repertoire. There's nothing wrong
02:22with him. He's ready to go. I, it just, beyond me, why he hasn't just been given the green
02:28light, to be honest.
02:28Uh, the all-star game is almost a month away. July 15th, uh, is when, where is that? They
02:36are in Atlanta this year at Truist park. So they're in hot town. It should be a hot and
02:43steamy for them there on July 15th. Of course, it'll be better in the baseball. They've been
02:46playing down there this summer.
