San Diego has seen plenty of Padres create moments that you can hang a star on. Bruce Bochy is one of just two Padres’ managers to ever win the NL Manager of the Year award, and he wasn’t even honored with it in the season that he brought San Diego to the World Series.

Dylan Cease has seen a drop in production and a rise in ERA, Joe Musgrove is on the shelf for this year after undergoing Tommy John surgery, and Yu Darvish has been fighting elbow inflammation and is yet to toe the rubber in 2025.
