Darren Smith and John Gennaro recap a weekend that didn't go so great for the San Diego Padres but went splendidly for San Diego FC.

Did Buster Posey's aggressiveness in trading for Rafael Devers steal some of A.J. Preller's thunder? Is Yu Darvish (or Michael King) ever coming back to pitch for the Padres?

Also, Darren does a slight mea culpa on the FIFA Club World Cup, which is off to a fun start despite getting somewhat lost in the shuffle of soccer overload in the US.

Darren and John skipped the usual Friday scene at Mason Ale works and tried their best to ignore some of the darkest stories of the day. It doesn't always work, but the guys mostly spend the podcast talking about the NHL Stanley Cup Final, the NBA Finals, a Juan Soto vs. MacKenzie Gore rivalry, and the weekend ahead.

The guys also talked about Padres manager Mike Shildt, who is not a very popular manager amongst MLB players and seems to be fighting with his own bullpen strategies in a recent postgame press conference.

Darren and John start off the show talking about the U.S. Men's National Team drama and how stupid it is before turning their attention to the San Diego Padres, who dropped their rubber match against the Dodgers on Wednesday and who might be working a trade in the next few days.

Later, the guys talk about what is lining up to be a really great NBA Finals after the Pacers showed up and won game 3 at home to take a 2-1 lead over the heavily-favored OKC Thunder. But you know what would make the Finals even better? A decent broadcast.
