I just don’t understand why you pull Kolek after like 8 pitches. At least let him start the next inning to see if he keeps the momentum. Worst case you pull him after a base hit.
Fuck. That’s a bad loss. When you fight that hard and come back that late in the game, everyone needs to nut up. Winning this game would have propelled us forward. Smh. LFGSD!!! Win the series tomorrow.
Bobby Fastballs is warming up for a reason. PUT HIM IN, SHILDT!
But for real, super tough to always sniff at .500 then have our hopes dashed against the rocks.
Yeah I think keeping him out was the right call. Even if (when) he shut them down we couldn't have asked him to pitch the 10th after yesterday. It would have been just delaying the inevitable.
Someone said his defense to protect the lead, but we we're only ahead by 1. Schildt probably took the risk and it backfired. But who's to say profar even gets a hit there, but still he's one of the best hitters in the league rn.
Yeah, it's fine. I'm not bent about it. Seems like a weird call to me. It's not like Profar sucks on D but whatever. If it would have worked, he would have been a genius so eh whatevs. We will get 'em tomorrow.
Yeah schildt is just trying stuff out, profar has a cannon so I don't understand it either. Thinking about it he probably was showing merrill he believes in him by doing that. Didn't work out but he might have boosted Merrills confidence just by doing that. Watch Merrill all of a sudden go on a tear this next month. 🫡
dang it, padres. i was really preparing for a schedule loss given the pitching matchup tonight; i guess i should commend you for keeping it as close as you did?
Fr, are they stupid?
Nah, celebration is fine. I'm referring to the crowd erupting at every strike call. They made it seem like game 7 of the world series. Ultimately, it's a joke. Don't be offended for the other team when I'm not even posting in their sub.
Dont act like another team celebrating their win over our loss says something about how good we are. Its obnoxious and unsportsmanlike. Again, dont be like you know who.
I'm not even acting remotely or close. If I was, I would've posted it in the Cubs GDT. Get off your high horse, dude. It's a joke kept in the group that it should be kept to.
Welp it’s as good a day as any to pick up another extra inning win.
And truth be told against Iminaga its nice that we are even still in this with our pen taxed and no Joe and calling up Randy. We are balling hard on a day most ppl took for granted. So fuck it. Might as well win at this point.
Okay, if we go to the 10th, Merrill is the Manfred Runner, and he's pretty quick. We've also got Tatis/Crone/Manny due up.
Still feel good about this one. Just need EDLS to knuckle down and get those three outs.
This team continues to underachieve and it’s to the point of unexplainable. All this talent and playing .500 ball? Beyond frustrating
Not a bad game. It was entertaining even though we lost. It's all just entertainment anyway.
fuckkkkkk
This bullpen is pretty trash
If there was ever a good loss, this was it. Had Vasquez starting. And a strong pitcher against them. Come back with cease tomorrow.
Bingo. People need to chill the fuck out
It was close up until the end. It's a loss that sucks but hey, we were in it until the end, and that's fine. Let's win tomorrow!
I just don’t understand why you pull Kolek after like 8 pitches. At least let him start the next inning to see if he keeps the momentum. Worst case you pull him after a base hit.
Tough loss. Take the game tomorrow and we’re all good.
IF we win tomorrow be can be back to .500 For the million ba billionth time
 Ya’ll got any a them .500 seasons left??
It doesn't feel like we're .500. It feels like we keep winning series. I guess that sweep by the Phillies hurt.
This was a long shot of us to win with facing arguably the best pitcher in baseball. A win would have been nice but I’m glad we fought like we did
I can’t be mad. That dude imanaga is a good pitchers. Almost had it buts it’s okay. We can still win that series
Absolute pain
Fuck. That’s a bad loss. When you fight that hard and come back that late in the game, everyone needs to nut up. Winning this game would have propelled us forward. Smh. LFGSD!!! Win the series tomorrow.
keeping it close on a bullpen day was still impressive vs imanaga, take the series tomorrow
This fucking team
Bobby Fastballs is warming up for a reason. PUT HIM IN, SHILDT! But for real, super tough to always sniff at .500 then have our hopes dashed against the rocks.
You don’t want him going multiple innings and not being available tomorrow
Yeah I think keeping him out was the right call. Even if (when) he shut them down we couldn't have asked him to pitch the 10th after yesterday. It would have been just delaying the inevitable.
Sort of... we all knew coming into tonight that it was an uphill battle. It was closer than I ever imagined it would be.
Pretty fucking predictable.
Bullpen needs some work
What do you mean? They get straight worked every game
We just give up soooooo many homeruns as an entire pitching staff.
we battled and got a bit unlucky with Azocar's hit. But still, another irritating loss to add to a season full of irritating losses, already.
Sometimes, you just have to laugh
Thanks Yuki
I really hate the Cubs… Bullpen not bullpening. Let’s get these sorry MFs tomorrow morning
Why is this team just allergic to being above .500
because thats all this team is.
Yuki not good on back to backs
 See you tomorrow.
Well in the end it didn't really matter. Oh well. Tough fought game, but never even expected it to be close like this.
Allergic to being over .500 lol
I saw that coming from a mile away, once we didn't score
Man subbing Merrill for Profar was not it
Yeah, that was the one decision that I don't get. Of all the people right now, how do you sit Profar?
Someone said his defense to protect the lead, but we we're only ahead by 1. Schildt probably took the risk and it backfired. But who's to say profar even gets a hit there, but still he's one of the best hitters in the league rn.
Yeah, it's fine. I'm not bent about it. Seems like a weird call to me. It's not like Profar sucks on D but whatever. If it would have worked, he would have been a genius so eh whatevs. We will get 'em tomorrow.

Didn't work out but he might have boosted Merrills confidence just by doing that. Watch Merrill all of a sudden go on a tear this next month. 🫡
Agreed!
He’s been giving up homers like a pez dispenser lately
Fade me bruh
dang it, padres. i was really preparing for a schedule loss given the pitching matchup tonight; i guess i should commend you for keeping it as close as you did?
Ouch.
Poor Vazquez tbh
Padres gonna padres
L O L
Whatever, just win the series.
Ok fr whats that song called? 😅
Meatball right down the dick!
Wow what a dogshit ending
Let’s get the series tomorrow! See ya
just one base hit man
You know it’s bullshit we have to pitch in this
Woulda been nice to win that one but it was long odds to begin with. So it goes. Take the series tomorrow. That go Cubs go song is lame as fuck tho
I hate how the Cubs have such a cool theme song
It’s ass tbh
Baseball.
Happens every time. JFC
Had a feeling that was going to happen when they mentioned the pouring rain
Of course it was Bellinger.
It was Michael Busch
Michael Busch
It wasn’t.
that one was a heartbreaker you cant really be mad about
I blame Matsui
I blame you!
Welp.
That was a kick right in the nuts. But lets take the series tmrw
Congrats to the Cubs for winning the world series of May 7th 2024.
Yeah, what kind of lame ass losers celebrate a walk off win?
Fr, are they stupid? Nah, celebration is fine. I'm referring to the crowd erupting at every strike call. They made it seem like game 7 of the world series. Ultimately, it's a joke. Don't be offended for the other team when I'm not even posting in their sub.
Be better than our neighbors to the north.
How am I being bad? At least I'm keeping it in our own sub.
Dont act like another team celebrating their win over our loss says something about how good we are. Its obnoxious and unsportsmanlike. Again, dont be like you know who.
I'm not even acting remotely or close. If I was, I would've posted it in the Cubs GDT. Get off your high horse, dude. It's a joke kept in the group that it should be kept to.
Rain would start coming down once the padres are up on defense lmao
Different ballgame if profar is up in the 9th there instead of Merrill
Prob not
Tbh, I expected worse vs Imanaga. Lets W tomorrow!
Thanks Yuki!!
Allergic to being over .500
Literally just said the same thing to my wife
How perfect that the rain really starts when our pitcher has to go out there. 🙄🤦🏼♀️
Well that sucked.
back to back days matsui was total ass
Well!
[удалено]
The RISP struggles continue…
Yuki didn’t help much either
Meanwhile look at Harper
Dogshit pitch
Pads pitchin baby 🫠
1 pitch is all it took too
Well that’s frustrating
Your 2024 San Diego Padres!
and 2023 and 2022 and 2021 and 2020 and 2019, should I keep going. This is fucking trash.
Yeah we suck
Damn that hurts 😢
WOW.
Damn that’s too bad…not too mad at it. Let’s get them tomorrow
LOL nevermind.
Come on
Nice I'd rather lose than wait hours or days for the rain out. 🥲
I hope you feel responsible
I typed it after the home run breh
lol
Hold on let me call my barber. Maybe he can come over real quick and FADE ME.
Fuck this bullpen bro
Really liked our chances once it was tied vs their BP. I guess ours is worse LOL
Fade me
Bleh, see y’all tomorrow
☹️
raining bye folks mol
Damn
One pitch….
What a FUCKING meat ball. This fucking team.
bruh
baseball is scripted.
Now i am pissed
Fuck
That was so fucking dumb.
Ugh
Jesus fucking Christ, Enyel.
Fuck. We are allergic to being over .500
Ouch
Ok then
Lol. What an ending.
We're really gonna do rain now eh?
Just like that
Well that didn't take long
Game is on X and Manny.
Absolutely.
Oh my fucking god. See you tomorrow I guess
Welp
Well that absolutely fucking sucks
Lmao whatever
Was a solid game, we take the series tomorrow!
Welp it’s as good a day as any to pick up another extra inning win. And truth be told against Iminaga its nice that we are even still in this with our pen taxed and no Joe and calling up Randy. We are balling hard on a day most ppl took for granted. So fuck it. Might as well win at this point.
and i -oop
Well, that’s great.
bruh
heads up padres fans, i live a few blocks from Wrigley and it just started pouring
I feel like Shildt has lost the plot.
Okay, if we go to the 10th, Merrill is the Manfred Runner, and he's pretty quick. We've also got Tatis/Crone/Manny due up. Still feel good about this one. Just need EDLS to knuckle down and get those three outs.
Yea we need Bob for the K’s in the 10th if we get there.
Ay caramba. Fellas we ain’t livin to an old age with how this team plays with our hearts.
Aaaaaaaaaaaand clench
The splitter has been an issue
I love Merrill, but it would've been great to have our best hitter up there. Too bad he was pulled
Sure would have been nice to have jurickson profar batting there. These late game substitutions of him are fucking asinine
Absolutely crazy taking your best player out in a 1 run game
Damn. It really do be like that
Alright.. we take it to extras and walk it off.
I guess I should have specified WE walk it off 😂
uhhh
Walk it off?
Because YOU said walk it off dumbass
Let’s force extras yall
Someone explain to me why we pulled Profar?
Yea it’s not like he’s Soto out there. I get the rationale, but game was too close and it wasn’t the 9th yet.
Idk why we are still doing this
Defense in hopes that we maintained the lead
Use santos please
San Diego Pop-up-dres, I guess.
NO!
Azocar needs to get in the weight room
This is your moment kid
I love Bob, but seems dumb using him in the 9th with no lead.
DLS 9th, hope we score in the 10th. The Suarez
Just keep the line moving. Keep it going.
Suarez is warming up? I am worried ngl. I have to worry to counter the jinx
I’m hoping it’s just in case we get a lead.
Merrill homer
Cubs dont make these plays against any other teams lmaooo it be like that
Merrill 3 run jack
Yes. Ill also settle for a single or double. Kim fast boi.
Sweet. Now make them PAY.
I don't know baseball so much ... Why aren't Araez and Profar in?
Profar would be up rn 🥹🥹🥹
Battle of the bullpens tonight in the worst way possible for both teams lol
Damn Bobby in the pen
Honestly hope we dont use Suarez tn. Let DLS get a chance.
