jillian59+FollowCould El Bombi Boost the Friars’ Playoff Push?Rumors are heating up that the Padres might make a move for the Rangers’ slugger El Bombi (Adolis García) at the trade deadline.

Let’s hear your takes! #Padres #ElBombi #MLBTradeRumors #Sports #Baseball10Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowCould the Padres Nab Buehler from Boston?Rumors are heating up that the Padres might make a play for former Dodgers World Series ace Walker Buehler at the deadline.

Andrea Castillo+FollowCould the Friars Land Sean Murphy?Padres fans, what do you think about the latest buzz linking us to Braves catcher Sean Murphy?

Andrea Castillo+FollowMerrill Returns: Padres’ Spark vs. Dodgers?Big news for Friar Faithful! After a rough stretch and falling behind the Dodgers, the Padres just reinstated Jackson Merrill from concussion protocol.

With the bats slumping, his .304 average and clutch presence could be the boost we need to chase LA in the NL West. Can Merrill’s return reignite the rivalry and get us back in the Wild Card hunt?

Tammy Sellers+FollowPadres' Trade Hopes Hit a Wall with AngelsTough break for Friar Faithful—word is the Angels aren’t budging on their top arms or Taylor Ward unless they fall out of the Wild Card race. That means Kenley Jansen and Tyler Anderson are off the table for now, making the Padres’ hunt for pitching and left field help even trickier. With the Halos just two games back, every Angels loss could swing the deadline. Are you rooting for an Angels slump to open up the market? #Padres #MLBTradeDeadline #Angels #Sports #Baseball00Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowMachado Calls Out Roberts After Benches ClearWow, things got heated last night! The Friars took down the Dodgers 5-3, but the real fireworks started when Tatis Jr. got plunked in the ninth—again. That sparked a benches-clearing moment, and Manny Machado didn’t hold back, saying Dave Roberts wanted 'some smoke' but didn’t back it up. Machado also warned the Dodgers about Tatis’ injury, hinting this isn’t the first time. Rivalry just got spicier! Thoughts on Roberts’ move and the ongoing beanball drama? #Padres #Dodgers #MLBRivalry #Sports #Baseball02Share
