Craig Stammen's biggest challenge, Padres offense, Heath Bell talks Padres rotation

What have we learned about the Padres after the first homestand of the season? Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the 2-4 home stand and the team preparing for their first road trip. Xander Bogaerts will play in front of his former Boston Red Sox fans for the first time since he signed his stunning contract with the Padres. Darren points out that the Padres will see the Pirates top rookie, 19-year-old Connor Griffin, in the second leg of the trip. Do the Padres have any top prospects left that would spark some serious buzz? Sorry, fans of Leodalis DeVries. The duo then discuss the incredible achievement of former Padres catcher Austin Hedges, who just reached 10 years of service time in Major League Baseball. The show then welcomes in former Padres All-star closer Heath Bell, who breaks down Craig Stammen's first week on the job. Is Stammen being too honest with the media when it comes to his game management and lineup decisions? And Heath says he finds it hard to believe that Stammen was responsible for the Padres lineup in the first place. The trio then discusses what kind of relationship separation Stammen needs to have with his players, and how honest he will be with Fernando Tatis and Manny Machado when they struggle. Heath also breaks down what he saw from Walker Buehler and German Marquez in their Padres debut and how he really feels about Mason Miller's new entry song.
