The San Diego Padres are making waves this spring, and the buzz around Nick Pivetta's impressive debut has fans talking. With four strikeouts in his first outing, Pivetta seems to be a strong contender for the fifth starter spot. But what does this mean for the rest of the rotation?

As we dive deeper into spring training, the competition is heating up. With players like Tirso Ornelas and Brandon Lockridge also making headlines for their hitting prowess, it raises the question: how do you see the Padres' lineup shaping up as we approach the regular season?

Moreover, attendance figures are expected to soar again this year, which could play a significant role in the team's postseason aspirations. Do you think the energy from the fans can translate into on-field success?

Let’s not forget the recent signing of Jose Iglesias and the potential impact of Jake Cronenworth's defensive skills. How do you think these moves will affect the team's dynamics?

Bold prediction time: Will the Padres make a deeper playoff run this year compared to last? Or are there still gaps in the roster that need to be addressed?
