The San Diego Padres are back in the postseason! They’ll likely go back and forth as the season continues before they face off against the Arizona Diamondbacks for the final Wild Card spot.

It seems like we were at this point a few months ago. Optimism was high, as all eyes were on San Diego Padres pitcher Nick Pivetta’s first rehab pitching appearance in Lake Elsinore. If all went well, he was the obvious choice to join the starting rotation. However, those dreams were shattered after Pivetta walked […]
NEW YORK – Before Thursday night’s game against the Yankees, Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer said he wanted to see his team finish the season strong and carry that momentum into the 2027 campaign. Colorado got off to a slow start after Schaeffer made that statement as New York won big, 10-3, and swept the three-game series. It marked the 11th time the Rockies were swept this season.

PHOENIX — The Arizona Diamondbacks are entering their final homestand of the season in a familiar position: They’re in a playoff race with little room for error.

The San Diego Padres could be getting an important piece of their bullpen back at exactly the right time.

It was 95 degrees in San Diego yesterday, marking the hottest game in Petco Park history (h/t AJ Cassavell of MLB.com). Jackson Merrill stayed hot, homering twice to help the Padres complete the sweep. 1. Elly goes deep again The Reds were crushed 14-1 by the Dodgers last night. The one run? A homer from […]
The high-leverage arms in the San Diego Padres bullpen of Bradgley Rodriguez, Adrian Morejon and Mason Miller needed a day to sit and watch a game without having to warmup and without having to come into the game to protect and/or save another one-run game. Jackson Merrill gave them that day with a 4-for-5 performance […]
The Yankees have had a decent start to September, winning five of the seven games they’ve played thus far as they secured series wins over the Angels and Rockies while losing a series on the road to the Padres.

SAN DIEGO – Six games into his Major League career, Jackson Kent (Nationals’ No. 9 prospect) is still learning the ropes as a starting pitcher. “I think right when you get to the big leagues, that’s when you really start learning,” the rookie Kent said after the Nationals’ 9-2 loss to the Padres. “Learning who you are, learning how to get guys out.
