Padres snap skid | Impressive Griffin Canning | Did Mexico City affect Padres ?| Friar Territory

The San Diego Padres have finally snapped a four-game skid, thanks to an impressive debut from Griffin Canning and the "Bogey special." Darren Smith and Marty Caswell break down the biggest takeaways from the disappointing 2-4 homestand versus the Chicago White Sox and Cubs. Why would the Padres give Fernando Tatis an off-day during the team's skid? The duo listen to comments from Manny Machado on whether the trip to the altitude in Mexico City affected the hitters. And yes, the Padres are struggling offensively but luckily for them, so is the entire National League West. The duo then discuss an impressive debut from Griffin Canning, nearly a year after his achilles injury. How far behind might Lucas Giolito be and what does it mean for the futures of Matt Waldron and German Marquez? We hear from Canning on his start and early first-inning jitters. The Padres news of the weekend though is undoubtedly the transfer in ownership from the Seidler family to Kwanza Jones and Jose E. Feliciano. Marty and Darren break down their official statement and what they want to see from the next ownership group. The two then pay tribute to legendary Yankees broadcaster John Sterling, who passed away at 87 years of age. If you like your money, Mint Mobile is for you.

How the New 5 Year Eligibility Affects MSU and Big Ten Season Recaps for Teams #14-10

April 30, 2026: If there’s one truth to the chaos of college athletics its that it can always become more chaotic. That seems to be the case now as the NCAA is on the verge of granting 5 years of eligibility to all athletes. Unfortunately for MSU and its situation at the 5 spot - it looks like the NCAA will not make the rule retroactive meaning that Carson Cooper would not be eligible for another season. We also discuss the situation with Divine Ugochukwu, Duke’s deal with Amazon Prime, and a recap of the seasons of the #14-10 teams in the Big Ten. That includes Rutgers, USC, Washington, Minnesota, and Indiana. Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear?
