I am psychologically more prepared to watch us be mowed down by Shane Bieber, Carrasco, Karinchak, etc. than the torture that it is to watch us get Rays'd at Tropicana Field.
I thought you guys were all joking but now I'm starting to think some of you didn't actually get it.
The Dads are the Padres. Padres means "fathers" in Spanish, ergo "Dads".
They're not that comparable. Price was a 1-1 pick out of college who pitched all at levels in the minors before having a short stint in the majors are the end of 2008, and he was a highly touted prospect. McClanahan topped out with 18 IP in AA last season and not nearly as highly touted (one could argue maybe he should be).
Joseph was DFA'd. He's just a cheerleader lol, McGuire will play something like 2-3 innings tops and probably won't have a single AB. It's completely inconsequential.
No Angel Hernandez, Joe West or CB Bucknor. There's other bad umps aside from those three but certainly a positive that they're not involved in this series.
