They were all the way behind this team, especially after everything they went through this season. It seemed like the postseason would be a stretch after they lost Tatis, but that wasn't the case.The team fought hard to get to the NLCS and the fans are appreciative of that. But they have lost their confidence in manager Bob Melvin. His decision not to throw Josh Hader in the eighth inning will haunt fans for a long time.&quot;Fire Bob Melvin tonight&quot; said one fan.Dylan ❤️&zwj;🔥@dylanxsmackson@Padres Fire Bob Melvin tonight.2@Padres Fire Bob Melvin tonight.&quot;Team played like they didn't expect to make it this far in the postseason&quot; said another.GaryGoat🎴@GaryGoatJr@Padres Team played like they didn't expect to make it this far in the postseason 2@Padres Team played like they didn't expect to make it this far in the postseason 💀Andrew Schultz@ASchultzy37@Padres Bob Melvin put his tail between his legs and played SCARED this series.701@Padres Bob Melvin put his tail between his legs and played SCARED this series.trust me, im an expert@YesImAnExpert@Padres padres pack got me wheezing rn &zwj;14@Padres padres pack got me wheezing rn 😮&zwj;💨Tatis Jr. STAN@SD_Certified@Padres Love you guys thank you for giving it your all. 531@Padres Love you guys thank you for giving it your all. 😔&hearts;️adam@ArribaLosPadres@Padres Didn’t expect to get this far, but absolutely ruined your best shot at making the World Series.@Padres Didn’t expect to get this far, but absolutely ruined your best shot at making the World Series.Brandon Bridgman@BridgmanBrandon@Padres Good year Padres 🏻 was fun while it lasted2@Padres Good year Padres 🙏🏻 was fun while it lastedBrody💙@garciaa_brody@Padres in so much pain.11@Padres in so much pain.orca@tjchodebain@Padres Never forgiving bob for not putting hader in101@Padres Never forgiving bob for not putting hader inWill Lockett⚓️@will_Read7@Padres Brutal loss but a really solid season.

Looking forward to having Tatis back and getting all the way to NovemberWhile some fans are questioning the manager's decision in the series, others are just appreciative of a successful season. They are optimistic that they will get back here next year when they have Fernando Tatis Jr. back.The San Diego Padres should be better next seasonAtlanta Braves v San Diego Padres - Tatis Jr.In terms of free agents, the San Diego Padres won't have to make too many hard decisions. Wil Myers and Josh Bell are the two biggest free agents that have to make a decision on this offseason.They'll have their core group of Manny Machado, Jake Cronenworth and now Juan Soto. Fernando Tatis Jr. will also be rejoinging the team next season.It was disappointing when Tatis was suspended. Not only was he a fan favorite among San Diego fans, he was becoming the face of baseball. He was one of the most exciting players to watch in the league.It will be interesting to see how he is viewed once he comes back next season. Will the fans hold his steroid use over his head for the rest of his career or is he young enough to redeem himself with time?His presence will be immediately felt next season. Without a doubt, if the team can stay healthy, they will be a postseason contender.
