Latest On Dinelson Lamet, Wil Myers

By Connor Byrne | September 27, 2020 at 11:02am CDT

TODAY: Myers is in the Padres’ lineup today, batting cleanup and playing right field.  Myers sat out Saturday’s game due to some quad tightness but the injury was apparently minor.

SEPTEMBER 26, 4:47 pm: Lamet is playing catch today and will throw a bullpen session in the next few days, reports AJ Cassavell of MLB.com (Twitter link). The club did not find an MRI to be necessary, notes Dennis Lin of the Athletic. San Diego hopes he’ll be able to start the first game of the Wild Card round.

SEPTEMBER 26, 8:18 am: Lamet complained of biceps tightness, manager Jayce Tingler told reporters (including Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune) postgame. At this point, the organization anticipates him being able to start in next week’s Wild Card round, Tingler adds.

SEPTEMBER 25: Padres right-hander Dinelson Lamet and outfielder Wil Myers left the team’s game against the Giants on Friday for undisclosed reasons, Dennis Lin of The Athletic tweets.

Lamet’s the second key Padres starter who may have suffered a key injury in the past few days, joining fellow righty Mike Clevinger. The Padres seem likely to go without Clevinger for at least the first round of the playoffs because of a sprained elbow. Therefore, they can ill afford to lose Lamet, who has been a Cy Young-level starter this season. The 28-year-old entered Friday with a 2.07 ERA/2.51 FIP across 65 1/3 innings.

While Lamet has been one of the Padres’ best pitchers, Myers has emerged as one of their top hitters. After three straight disappointing seasons, Myers has rebounded in a big way with a .285/.352/.591 slash and 14 home runs in 213 plate appearances this year. He, like Lamet, is among the reasons the Padres broke a 13-year playoff drought this season. But now it seems the Padres are in danger of entering the postseason without Lamet, Myers and Clevinger, so they won’t be at full strength when the playoffs commence.

      Yeah, but it’s not a ‘proper’ season anyway, so as nice as it would be to win we’d never get proper respect for it. I’d rather taste the playoffs this year, get our young guys used to the pressure, and then win it in a full 2021 season (assuming that actually goes ahead of course).

    It was just a few years ago that baseball players never got hurt. Football players hockey players basketball players used to get hurt but baseball players never got hurt. Now they’re hurt all the time. I just have to wonder if it is because of how much money they make these days where they sit out for any little reason.

      How many years is a few from your perspective? I’ve been following baseball for 30 years and there’s always been hamstring pulls, arm injuries, occasionally broken bones.
      It’s likely that imaging and diagnosing have improved, as well as less emphasis on playing through injuries in favor of substituting a healthy player.

      It’s also the guaranteed contracts. Before they unionized (‘66) and became incredibly influential (late 70’s) they were subject to losing their jobs to younger, healthier players. Now, they’re guaranteed to get paid. It has its pros and cons but certainly contributes to the increase in the ubiquitous minor-injury IL stints.

      Plus now the emphasis is on self rather than team, but that is a culturally systemic change.

      I think that big contracts are part of it but the primary motivation is probably just to get the best performance from their players. I don’t think it is the players largely making the decision to be pulled from a game or hitting the IL. Ultimately, the player is responsible for disclosing what they are feeling and then the coaching staff and medical staff should be making decisions. These decisions are likely data driven and can vary based on the exact circumstances (such as being extra cautious in a tune-up start right before the playoffs).

      If a guy feels a little tightness, you might have better results by pulling him and resting him for a day or two rather than having him play through it. There are times to tough-it-out but I think the coaching staffs are almost always making those calls now.

    Best case scenario

    Davies starts game 1 of the playoffs and you go bullpen for game 2 after 3 or 4 innings of the opener. Hope news on Clevinger and Lamet comes back positive if you make it to the second round and hopefully you can get 4 innings maybe 5 out of them in the second round before the pen takes over.

    Maybe they shock everybody and call up Gore or Weathers, much like how the White Sox called up Crochet, to be a pen piece.

          Padres fans trying to talk trash is hysterical. In 52 years, the franchise has finished last 20 times and next-to-last 10 times. Just 16 seasons with a winning record with this year being the first since 2010. Team of the future? The Dodgers will have 15 or 16 homegrown players on their post-season roster, The Pods will have no more than three. Yet MMM and his ilk insist the Padres have the game’s best farm system. Where is the evidence?

          The Padres have endured years if not decades of poor ownership. Padres teams of the past had a knack for trading away promising talent for scrubs. The scouting department was a train wreck, and more than a few high round draft picks did not live up to expectations (Corey Spangenberg). They were stuck in perpetual rebuild mode for years. The current regime wants to win and has demonstrated a willingness to spend money to make that happen.

          It looks like they’ve turned a corner. They’re not perfect (few teams are), but they’ve got a winning culture and some talented players now.

          @dr. Dan so your ready to say they turned the corner in a shortened season with mostly the same players as last year where they missed playoffs entirely? You seem to be betting on there unsustainable career bests as a team. Here’s a list of players having career seasons (machado, hosmer, cornenworth, Grisham, myers, lamet, Davies) If I were a betting man if this were a full season I’m willing to bet padres miss playoffs based on lack of injuries and no depth outside of there starters. I guess just making the playoffs leads padres fans to thinking they are a ws contender but sadly thatS not the case. Dodgers, Braves, cubs and reds are all much better and with stronger track records to the one hit wonder padres.

          @imindless Mostly the same players as last year? Seriously you don’t watch or follow the Padres at all. Gone are Margot, Hedges, Renfroe and Urias and in are Cronenworth, Profar, Grisham and Nola. Even the bench is better with Moreland, Castro and Mateo.

          The rotation is vastly improved too with three starters with ERAs under 3.10. As far as some of the comparisons to the Dodgers I would say this, that isn’t even a fair comparison. The Dodgers play in one of the biggest markets in baseball. Comparing them to the Padres isn’t fair and accurate.

Paddack had a 3.33 lifetime ERA coming into this year. Lamet had 1 full year before this one and everyone was expecting a breakout from him. It was written about more than once last offseason. Hosmer yes is having a career year. So?

          @javia over the last 5 season wil myers has been an 110 ops+ players this year 155 (small sample size) machado is a 127 ops+ over his entire career only once for a have season before being traded to dodgers did he have a 160 ops+ Hosmer is a 115 ops+ player this year 138 ops+ lol definately outpacing his typical production. Davies is typically a 4 era players or 115 era + player this year 145 era + although his fip is over 4….cornenworth and Grisham are rookies and it’s hard to really think they are gonna continue to produce at career high marks something neither have done in minors. Using paddack as a reason to support your argument is funny seeing as you just proved that even proven starters can regress. Judging by padres track record they have outpaced who they actually are which is a middling baseball team. Congrats on making postseason! Its all smoke an mirrors and next year I expect them to be back to bottom feeders based on lack of depth and not everyone having career seasons.

          I’ve been saying for months that I don’t think the Padres are quite championship caliber yet. They still need more pitching and greater depth. But their performance during the short season has pleasantly surprised me. Whether they can keep it up remains to be seen.

          Being a Padres fan is tough. Still the only team without a no hitter. Two WS appearances in 51 years, clobbered both times. Years of rebuilding that went nowhere. They may finally be getting close.

    Both Clevinger and Lamet have had TJ surgery so they have got to be more aware than most of every little ache or tweak. Clevinger will be fine with cortisone and I’m guessing Lamet too. There’s plenty of time and the Padres’ bats have returned. The first 30+ games, they were scoring like crazy. That will cover up some pitching defects.

      The Padres faded as the season wore on because they aren’t that deep. The longer the season, the more the cream rises to the top. The Pods making the post-season is a nice little story, but they haven’t turned any corners yet. It remains to be seen whether they are equipped to handle a 162-game grind.

    The Padres better hope that the Marlins end up as the 5 seed. Because if the Cardinals or especially the Reds get the 5 seed it will be a short return to the postseason for the Friars. I would favor the Reds against ANYONE in a 3 game series. They might not have enough for a full 7 game series, but a 3 game set with Bauer, Gray, and Castillo starting. They would not lose 2 of those games.

      You would favor the Reds over anyone? With that roster? Okayyyy. By the way. any team can win a three-game series. Saying the Reds would definitely beat the Padres or anyone else is foolish because you have no way of knowing. The Reds have lost quite a few games even when those three guys pitched well. A great team they ain’t.

        Where did I say the word “definitely” anyway? I said I would FAVOR them over anyone including the Dodgers. They had a bad start and lost a lot of games in August. But they aren’t having the playoffs in August. You keep believing they “ain’t” a great team while you are wondering why they sent a “great” team home in the first round.

        BTW, the Padres and flailing right now. They should consider it lucky it is a short season because otherwise they probably wouldn’t even make the playoffs. Don’t ever forget them falling apart in 2010. .

      Hiflew a healthy Lamet/Clevinger/Davies are just about equal with Cin if not better considering Davies >Gray.
      And the offenses of the two teams aren’t even close.
      So go ahead and wager all you have on Cin if it happens….I dare you!

        I don’t gamble because I don’t need to. Nor do I want to. I also don’t accepts “dares” because I am not 8 years old.

        You are right that the offense of the two teams aren’t even close. I’d take the Reds offense all day long. Aside from shortstop and probably catcher, there is no position on the Padres that is significantly better than the Reds.

        Davies is not better than Gray. And since Lamet and Clevinger are not healthy, that comparison will have to live in your imagination.

        I admit the Padres are better than expected this season, but of all playoff teams, only the White Sox are playing worse RIGHT NOW. When the playoff start, it doesn’t matter how good you were on September 1st. It matters how good you are right now. And right now, the Reds are better than the Padres.

    One would think that if the Reds are better than the Padres that such would be reflected in their records.

    Also, you might want to think again about the Reds offense compared to the Padres.
    OPS by position:
    Padres. Reds
    1B-.847 .790
    2B-..870 .833
    3B-.963 .784
    SS-.933 .719
    LF-.772 .717
    CF-.826 .649
    RF-.943 .932
    C-.820 .672

    As you will notice, the Padres players have a superior OPS at EVERY SINGLE POSITION.
    Also BA/SLG(except 1B only)/HR(except 1B and 2B) and SB

          @javia sad you like your own comments. But yeah using a full 5 man rotation your stats might be true but in playoffs typically use 3 starters. There 3 are better than yours and have done it for years instead of one season. You still haven’t proven anything above about 2/3 or your team outpacing who they are all having career seasons. Your team is currently slumping heading into postseason Combined with injuries and it doesn’t look good, let’s see if padres have the depth to make it out of first round. You had a big mouth all year and now have been relatively quiet.

          Dinelson Lamet-2.09 vs Trevor Bauer-1.73. Bauer is better.
          Mike Clevinger-3.02 vs Luis Castillo-3.21. Clevinger is better.
          Zach Davies-2.73 vs Sonny Gray-3.73. Davies is a full run better.

          That’s funny then why is Davies and clev fip almost 2 runs higher than Castillo or gray? Using era doesn’t help cast the full picture but let’s see how well you guys perform in playoffs there’s a reason you only have a 3 percent chance of making it to World Series.
