On its face, SD is everything you want to see from a mid-market squad and NOTHING seems to ever work out for them. It's just disappointing and sends a message to the middle of the pack that you don't like to see strictly as a baseball fan.
I want to see teams who 'go for it' have success. I want to see ownership and executive teams that go out there and TRY to win actually win.
But man, seemingly everything the Padres touch turns to shit and there's no obvious reason for it.

I agree with that as well. Also sucks for the Angels they got all in and they sucked it up. Hell I give them credit for going for it as well.
