Summary
The Padres’ playoff hopes are fading fast as they plummet to an eight percent chance, dropping two straight to the Royals and watching key hitters go cold. Manny Machado, Merrill, and Sheets are hittingless, with Sheets and Cronenworth sidelined for Sunday’s lefty matchup. Luis Rengifo steps in for his first start, while Merrill gets another shot in the two-hole. With the team two games under .500, they’re chasing wild-card spots while facing a Royals team on a roll — and a pitching duel pitting improving Germán Márquez against struggling Noah Cameron.
