"I think it was like a switch for us," Jurickson Profar told Kevin Acee of The San Diego-Union Tribune. Since then, San Diego has honed its craft and fine-tuned a strong identity for the season. Profar emphasizes the importance of building team chemistry, highlighting that even superstar teams require time to develop their synergy, as it's not simply a mechanical game. The Padres' resurgence has showcased their capability to compete effectively against lower-ranked teams and build momentum heading into the playoffs.
The Padres can secure a playoff spot with any combination of wins and Atlanta Braves losses that add up to five. With a two-game lead over National League opponents, the New York Mets and the Arizona Diamondbacks, maintaining this lead is crucial for clinching the top wild-card spot, allowing San Diego to start the postseason with a home series. Their current performance indicates they are capable of achieving this goal if they continue their winning ways.
