But what about pitching, mate? On today's edition of the Locked On Padres podcast, Javier goes solo yet again to continue the breakdown of how the Padres preseason expectations matched with real life. He covers the pitching side of things with the major disappointments (Chris Paddack, Emilio Pagan) to the major breakouts (Drew Pomeranz, Dinelson Lamet, etc.). Topics also include Paddack's massive dip in hard hit percentage, whether or not Pomeranz might be next season's closer, Zach Davies' future potential, and the surprise call ups of Luis Patino and Ryan Weathers.
