Out of Context Criterion Closet:
This series feels like a complete organizational failure for the Padres, which is actually really impressive: Preller putting out a bad playoff roster, Stammen’s inexperience getting exposed, the lights being brighter than the “stars” and the pumpkins all getting carved up. Oh well.

Am I allowed to post a picture I took of a random stranger if I took it because they look cool as fuck?

The plane wi-fi went out right after Miller gave up the double and by the time it came back on the Padres won. I missed all the suspense.

I hope we continue to get the good version of Manny throughout the playoffs. I miss having to begrudgingly respect his talent.

Stammen ended year one at +6
Top 5 Padres Managers All Time by WAP (Wins Above Pythagorean):

1) John McNamara +19 (4.75 WAP/yr)
2) Bruce Bochy +17 (1.42 WAP/yr)
3) Andy Green +9 (2.25 WAP/yr)
4) Don Zimmer +5 (2.5 WAP/yr)
5) Mike Shildt +2 (1 WAP/yr)

* Craig Stammen is currently +3 after 146 games.
After the season I’m going to add up Wins Against Pythagorean records (WAP) and see if the results align with the general sentiment of who the best Padres managers have been all-time.

I unironically believe that Craig Stammen should win NL Manager of the Year.

Craig Stammen’s gonna text Mike Shildt “I thought 90 wins was supposed to be hard to do.”

I’m sure he doesn’t care, and neither should we, but since it looks like all the starters are getting tomorrow off, it’s kind of a bummer that Tatis ending his season with tonight’s game drops his fWAR below 5.5, his OPS below .830, and his wRC+ below 130.

Gotta make Mize wear it and throw 100 pitches tonight to give the bullpen a rest.

Does Casey Mize even make the wild card roster?

It’s nice to see Fernando showing some genuine personality in front of a mic.

It’s unfortunate that I’m pessimistic about the Padres’ chances of winning this series despite trying to be more optimistic about the team overall.

If the leads aren’t 13 years old then Eggers is a fraud and the Olde English will just be obnoxious (I will still watch it, though).
Robert Eggers is set to direct a new film adaptation of ‘ROMEO AND JULIET’.

The film will feature the actors speaking in Olde English.

I don’t have anything against Feige, but Mahershala clearly does, and I respect his conviction in making sure everyone knows it.
Mahershala Ali calls out Kevin Feige over the failure of ‘BLADE’.

“Kevin [Feige], he said it was the biggest failure of his career, and I agree... I agree with him 100%, he should feel that way.”

Hot take?: Samantha Morton was the only cast member who delivered an awards-worthy performance in The Odyssey.
Anne Hathaway will campaign in the Best Supporting Actress category for her role in ‘THE ODYSSEY’.

Padres ranked 14 out of 15, with the worst starting rotation of any team in the NL playoff field.

Hopefully the offense can stay hot.

I’m on a bit of a hot streak in my sports fandom choices, even if I frequently forget to follow along or watch the games.

Somehow, @birdbrad.bsky.social will find a way to blame this on a Mexican.

Tatis is having a hilarious stretch at the plate.

I’m an advocate of winning the division guaranteeing a playoff spot but seeding being dictated by regular season record. What’s going on in the American League ahead of CBA talks could probably facilitate that becoming a reality.
