San Diego Padres Opening Day is almost here! It will be a huge weekend for San Diego sports in general but what should Padres fans specifically be looking out for this weekend?
Xander Bogaerts’ Padres Debut
We obviously saw Bogaerts play during Spring Training but he hasn’t yet played a game at Petco Park in the brown and gold. How will he perform in his first regular season series? In six career games at Petco, Bogaerts is 4-for-20 with 2 RBI.
Blake Snell on Opening Day
Snell may have gotten the Opening Day start because Joe Musgrove got hurt and Yu Darvish wasn’t ramped up, but that doesn’t mean we should think of him as just a normal number three starter in the rotation.
