## Resource

How optimistic are we about the Padres heading into 2026? Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the end of spring training, and Nick Pivetta finally being named the opening day starter versus the Tigers. The two discuss what to make of Fernando Tatis being back in the leadoff spot and Walker Buehler's rough outing. The show then welcomes back a familiar face! Kyle Glaser joins Friar Territory to talk Padres season outlook, the rotation depth with Buehler and German Marquez and the excellent bullpen. The trio discuss the upgraded roster under financial constraints, and the best spot for Tatis moving forward. And you can't talk season outlook without discussing Luis Campusano and his latest opportunity. Kyle discusses how scouts feel about Freddy Fermin being a full-time catcher and the ongoing argument over Campusano behind the plate. If you like your money, Mint Mobile is for you.
