@hjpreller.bsky.social and I sat down at HJ Manor to discuss all the latest Padres news and we continue to stoke the Great Podcast Wars. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

Tom Krasovic: Would a Padres sale help the club win it all? The simple answer is: we don’t know.

The @sandiegouniontribune.com is a fucking embarrassment. Tom Krasovic pushing for a sale to Jeff Fucking Moorad. “Would a Moorad-Greupner reunion ease the challenges of an ownership transition? Seems plausible.” Unreal. www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2025/11/13/t...

Agreed

Josh Byrnes is my scott weiland in this scenario

Luckily most new owners want to make a splash to win the fans over, right? Right?!

Some of us care about a preview of TCU’s game this weekend thank you very much #Bradiacs

👀👀👀

I guess this explains why San Antonio uses a handheld radar gun they purchased from Walmart (batteries not included)

Usually I’d worry that the padres are about to be pawned off to some private equity ghouls and stripped for parts but it’s about to be Seals season

Don’t worry they said they’re honoring Peter’s legacy by dumping the team

Doesn’t seem great that the team had to take $150M in cash calls the last two years!

We don’t even know the payroll but if it’s the same as last year there’s not enough money to even have interesting discussions on the 3rd tier players we can afford. And palace intrigue is just business as usual for the last two years. We need the year extension on the seidler court filings to lapse

There’s not really anything to discuss with Stammen. We know nothing about his managing skills, tendencies, strategies, etc.

Everyone knows new title with no change in real duties is a HUGE deal

An we’ve been told that almost all of AJ’s hires are going to be The One that is in sync with AJ so I don’t put much stock in that fluffing either. And is that even a good thing?

My one test for a new manager was Is He A Manager That Would Bat Luis Arraez 2nd For 500 PA’s and I honestly don’t think Stammen would pass. He seems like he’ll be exceedingly veteran player friendly (Pujols would have been too!). But who knows! We learned nothing of substance from the presser.

I don’t think there’s enough on hiring Stammen to do a podcast because we know nothing about his managerial style or tendencies. We know he’s besties with players and he’s a vibes hire. Meanwhile, our Shildt issues were all strategic and we have no clue if Stammen is the fix for that.

It’s so cool they we’re the modern era Brewers now

Now that New York is under strict sharia law, I can’t see him leaving NYC in favor of haram

The Padres' front office - led by chairman John Seidler, chief executive officer Erik Greupner and president of baseball operations A.J. Preller -- initially made a list of roughly 50 potential candidates to replace Shildt, a source familiar with the process said.

If you’re a Padres employee and can get a copy of this list please DM me or @hjpreller.bsky.social. There’s a free brunch for you and all your friends at Lips in it for you. Unlimited mimosas, baby!!

If the only prerequisite was being on the 2022 roster, I would have chosen Robinson Cano or preferably Nabil Crismatt.

Craig Stammen is the first manager in MLB history to have given up 4 consecutive home runs as an MLB pitcher. #History #Research #Journalism #CompletelyFreeAndAdFree

Vogt actually served in a real coaching role?

They’ve shown great judgement with managers for the last eleven years so I see your point

The manager isn’t supposed to be best pals with his players

They interviewed Pujols so Greupner could get this phone number and a couple of selfies

Who’s the funniest option for next manager of the Padres who is already in the org and spying for someone in the front office? It’s gotta be Craig Stammen, right?

It’s about time he got his shot

lol padres
