0:00.0	Good morning and welcome to episode 397 of Effectively Wild, the daily podcast from
0:26.3	bassballperspectus presented by the bassballreference.com play index. I am Ben Lindbergh, joined as always by Sam Miller.
0:35.3	Today we are doing the Padres preview episode. Later in the show, Nick Wheatley-Shellor will be talking to
0:41.4	Corey Brock from MLB.com. We in just a moment will be talking to Jeff Young, who wrote the Padres
0:48.8	chapter for essay for the bassball perspective annual and has long written about the Padres.
0:55.3	Quick, quick PSA before we get to that. If you have not registered yet for the Reliever fantasy
1:02.3	league that Sam proposed on Friday, it is too late to register for the Reliever fantasy league that

1:45.7	there's something for everyone there. Pro scouting stuff, amateur scouting stuff, stat stuff,
1:50.3	fantasy stuff, just a ton of articles. Go check it out. Padres, Jeff, you literally just walked
1:59.1	in the door after a long drive from Peoria where you were watching Padres. Can you tell us anything
2:06.4	that you saw of interest there other than the enormous sinkhole pool that was preventing you from
2:13.6	getting out of your room? Well, that was certainly a highlight for sure. Other than that,
2:19.7	yeah, I don't know. I saw the Padres get beat a couple of times so that they're kind of in
2:23.5	mid-season form already. That's good. This morning I was out at the backfields watching
2:33.1	Carlos Quentin run a little bit, which was nice to see. Got the sea-Austin hedges,
2:39.2	defensive drills, and let's see on Friday it was out and saw Andrew Cashner look pretty good in
