The San Diego Padres have had a dismal start to the 2018 season. A 10-20 record through their first 30 games leaves them languishing at the bottom of the NL West divisional standings. However, the beginning of a new month brings renewed hopes for the Friars’ resurgence.
Until now, everything that could have gone wrong has gone wrong for the Padres. After spending a large part of the first month on the disabled list, Wil Myers has once again been placed on the DL with an oblique strain. Former highly-touted starting pitcher Luis Perdomo was removed from the starting rotation and sent to El Paso.
