Why did Walker Buehler give up seven runs in the eighth inning?
Alright, I'm going live here as we hit the middle of the eighth inning. Padres are down eight to nothing. Against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Um Walker Bueller started this game for the Padres. I think it was Brandon Fought for the D backs and Walker Bueller. What happened to the old Walker Bueller? Can we please get that Walker Bueller back? Please. This guy has allowed sixteen sixteen Earned runs in his last two outings. He goes five innings tonight, seven earned runs. Walk the guy. Gave up two homers. Yes. Meepall. to Max Kepler. There was another meatball that Kepler took the other way. Uh first pitch of the game was a meatball down the middle. Merrill probably could have played that better defensively, but Still, I I'm just talking about the pitch location from Walker.
Not great. Um so yeah, like What is happening? What's the change? Can we get back to the old walker where he was one of the guys that I could trust in this rotation? Um We know that the velocity is not the same as it once was when he was like his best with the Dodgers. His fastball's around ninety four. So really for me with like that pitch it's gonna have to be better. With his location. Um And maybe that's what it'll say post game. But yeah, it it's just gonna have to be better because or else if it can't be better, then he's gonna have to use his other pitches more. Because a ninety four mile per hour fastball. Um catching way too much catching all of the plate. Um, that's not gonna be effective at this level.
I don't care who you're playing. You don't have to be playing the Dodgers. For it to be Smack.
How has Buehler’s velocity and pitch location changed since his Dodgers days?
So just uh I mean, if we're being honest. A terrible night. Sucky night. How however you want to describe it. A night, can we please forget it? Uh just as San Diegans. I mean, holy cow. You watch Team USA just Blow it against Belgium. So much for the whole Balogun stuff, that whole circus. The guy barely touched the ball. Uh Our back line at times was Just embarrassing. And so they lose that one four to one. Uh you got Your star in Kristen Pulisic. Kick someone. And then he goes down and then comes out of the game pretty early on. I don't think that's what Landon Donovan would have done. I don't think that's what Clint Dempsey would have done. Like, you know, that there's a difference between the star of today and the star of
those past years. Um, so there was that, very disappointing. And then Like I wanted it it's the World Cup. It's once every four years. This one it's probably the only time in our lifetime that it'll be in the United States, like I wanted to enjoy that. So I was only watching that. Then I flip over to the pod race game and I'm like, all right, let's see if Padres maybe have an early lead, or maybe at least it's nothing nothing. In the second inning or whenever it was. Nope, down to nothing. And it's just gotten worse from there. So
What caused the Padres’ offense to stall after the early runs?
Offensively tonight, I mean it's just chasing a bunch of Brandon Fox change ups out of the zone. Obviously they look like they're gonna be a pitch to hit and then they don't. Um but just frustrating. You got Tatis flailing at breaking balls that are outside the zone that don't ever have a a shot of him being able to crush a pitch. So Yeah, not great. Some quick innings. Crony just hit one to the moon, but it went fell. Arenado hit one to the moon. But it was fair. Podrige could've got him for Pretty cheap, but they decided they didn't want to. So after tonight the Padres are gonna be forty four and forty six. Both teams, the D backs and the Padres, enters day forty four and forty five. So the Padres will be below the Arizona Diamondbacks after tonight.
And that will have been their ninth loss in the last ten games. Heck of a play, Arenato just made ranging into the shortstop part. Of the infield and the throwing out crony. Didn't get anything on it really, but Got it there in time. Um all right, let's see what you guys in the comments are saying 'cause I don't have really anything else to say. I mean We know the Padres need starting pitching. They don't have They're Some of their best guys healthy. And then other guys just it's a lack of consistency.
