## Resource

Michael King’s second-half redemption arc begins Friday—can the Padres’ ace silence doubters and reclaim his dominant form after a rough first half? With a 3.41 ERA and just eight quality starts, King’s been plagued by solid contact and poor pitch location, especially against elite competition like the Dodgers. His fastball and sinker lack movement, but his changeup remains a weapon. With the rotation in dire need of innings and wins, King’s performance in the second half could define the Padres’ playoff hopes.
