Padres path to Oct | Does seeding matter? | Vasquez's role | Hot Jackson Merrill | Friar Territory

Does playoff seeding matter all that much for the San Diego Padres? Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the Padres eight-game winning streak being snapped by the Colorado Rockies, and what kind of missed opportunity it was with the Phillies, Cubs, and Diamondbacks all losing. The two discuss the current playoff path, and if the Padres are better off facing the Braves and Dodgers than the National League Central with the best team in baseball, the Milwaukee Brewers. Marty and Darren also discuss the 12 different players who have occupied the second spot in the lineup, some encouraging progress for Miguel Andujar, and what Ramon Laureano said about his attempt to return from hip surgery. What kind of role will Randy Vasquez have in the playoffs? The two discuss Vasquez's results after pitching twice in three days, and why it's a big start for Robbie Ray.
