LISTEN: On Friar Podcast – Tatis' Injury and Promising Signs From a Tough Week

The injury aside, things could be a whole lot worse for the Padres after the first week of the season.

The guys try to find the bright side on the heels of a rough few days for the Padres. Derek and Darnay discuss the injury to Fernando Tatis Jr., the questions it presents going forward, and some potential options for filling the void at shortstop.

They assess the season-opening homestand and the sliding scale of expectations, before launching into the first edition of Three Up, Three Down of 2021. This week it features the bullpen, Ha-Seong Kim, hard-hit baseballs and plenty more. The guys close things out with a look at what's next, and the return of a player who could help cure some of the Padres' ills.
