With 20 games left in the season, Padres management continues to make unique decisions. Jaymo has been informed he is no longer the starting 3rd baseman. Why now? This would have made sense when Jaymo was struggling but right now neither play is all that hot but Jaymo's stats are pretty much better across the board. Plus, Headley is experienced while Jaymo needs more practise.
Then six games later... Jaymo is the starter again. There is no rhyme or reason for these decisions???
After another four game no hit slump, Jaymo rebounds for a HUGE game in the 3rd game versus the Rockies. Jaymo had two singles and one homerun. That's the first time in a long time since he had three hits in one game. Jaymo also took home player of the game honours.
The Padres won 10-6 rebounding after the first two losses of the series. The win moves the Padres to 69-80 on the season. Jaymo's batting avg. climbs to .258
In several weeks of lowlights, Jaymo has a bit of a highlight as he records his 75 hit of the season versus the L.A. Dodgers in Los Angeles. While hitting a lowly .194 in the last ten games Jaymo is on the verge of dropping below .250 batting average. This season cannot end soon enough!
Good to see some of Jaymo's AA teammates up with the big team. In game two versus the Dodger, pitcher Odrisamer Despaigne pitched 4 innings and only gave up 1 hit. He was player of the game in a 7-0 SD thrashing over L.A.
Speaking of AA, forgot to mention that Tulsa did NOT repeat as Texas league champs. They lost 3 games to 1 to the Springfield Cardinals.
Well it took 155 games but Jaymo finally had his first four hit game. In game three versus the Dodgers Jaymo came up big with player of the game honours. 4 hits, including 2 doubles on 5 at bats and 2 RBI. Jaymo drove in the winning run in the 9th. With the 4 hits, Jaymo makes it to 80 hits on the season.
The Padres end up sweeping the Dodgers in L.A. (7-6, 7-0, 6-4). That is only the 4 sweep the Padres have had all season.
Last series of 2015: Dodgers @ Padres
The Dodgers will win the N.L. West. This series is just for bragging rites.
Game 1 of the series:
Inning 1: Jaymo hits a single to load the bases but the inning ends with no damage done. The score is 0-0.
Inning 3: Jaymo gets on due to a fielding error. Again no damage done. The score is 1-1
Inning 5: Jaymo takes the plate with 2 on and 2 out. However he chases a poor pitch and grounds out to end the inning. The score remains 1-1.
Inning 7: Jaymo craps the bed with 1 on and 2 out with a terrible strike out. The score now sits at 3-1 Padres.
Inning 9: The Dodgers have stormed back to take the lead 5-3. With 1 on and 2 out Jaymo takes the plate against Kenley Jansen. Jaymo pops up on an average cutter. janse gets his 50th save and Jaymo walks away in disgust with another poor outing.
Dodgers take game one by a score of 5-3
Game 2:
Chad Billingsley is the only Dodger pitcher to struggle this season. mayve jaymo can have a big game???
Inning 1: two on and one out, Jaymo strikes out. Unbeleivable how bad he has hit the ball in the 2nd half ot the season. Even though Jaymo chokes the team scores 3 runs to go up 3-0.
Inning 3: to lead off the bottom of the 3rd, Jaymo grounds out on one pitch. The Dodgers now lead 4-3
Inning 6: Grounding out to third Jaymo keeps his playing like crap streak alive! It's still 4-3 L.A.
Inning 9: leading off the 9th , down 6-3 Jaymo leads off the inning with a soft grounder (and some payback) against Jansen.
Jaymo has 1 hit in 4 at bats and the Padres lose again. Billingsley was phenomenal! He gave up three hits (one a hr with 2 on).
Game 3 of the series Jaymo rides the bench... the Padres win. That seems to happen a lot.
Game 162- the last game of the season
Dodgers LHP Hyun-Jin Ryu 14-6, 2.10era VS Padres RHP Ian Kennedy 11-6, 3.76era
This is the last game of the 2015 season. Will it also be Jaymo's last game as a Padre? He only signed a one year deal, there are a number of 3rd basemen in the organization and Jaymo has had a massive slump for the 2nd half of the season.
In a real pitchers duel, the Padres win the game 4-3 in the bottom of the 9th inning. Jaymo had a decent game with 2 hits in 4 attempts.

With Jaymo's contract expiring the Padres offer a 1 year, $500,000 deal. Hw totally insulting!!! Chase Headley makes 1.7 and Chris Nelson makes over $800,000 at AAA.
Jaymo lowers his first offer to 5 year and 5 million. The PPadres don't blink and jaymo refuses to sign. However, when all is said and done the Padres renew the contract and Jaymo gets majorly ripped out with a 1 year, $500,00 deal. What a freaking joke!
Jaymo has been named the starter but the backup and the AAA starter both will make way more money. Jaymo is beginning to tire of the poorly run San Diego padres...
Recap of the offseason in more detail...
http://www.twitch.tv/jaymo76/c/4923226
So with that Spring Training for the now 20 year old Jaymo is about to begin. What does season two in the bigs hold for Jaymo?
Spring ball kicks off with the Padres taking on the Mariners. Jaymo's hitting issues continue to plague him as in game one of the series he went 0 for 3 with two ground outs and a strike out. Ouch! Seattle won 5-4 and both teams had 11 hits. Is Jaymo destined for the minors? Right now he is penciled in as the 3rd baseman for opening day but at this point does he deserve it?
In game 2 Jaymo goes 2-4 with 2 singles and one RBI. He was also thrown out on an attempted steel. The Mariners win 2-1. Both teams had 10 hits. Jaymo had a decent game but there is still room for improvement.
The Padres seem to be using Jaymo all wrong as they have him batting cleanup. Jaymo is not a power hitter and his style is more fitted for lead off or late in the lineup.
To finish up the month, the Padres get lit up by KC by the score of 9-2. Jaymo went 1-4 with a single and a run. KC outhit the Padres 14-8. Jaymo hit into 2 double plays.
For the first three games Jaymo went 3/11 (.273) with 1 run and 1 RBI. A better effort will be needed if he wants to keep his job.
Jaymo had his best game of the Spring thus far getting 2 hits (incuding a double), 1 BB and 1 run and 1 RBI. However, a bad Padre team managed to lose a 5-1 lead and fell to the Dodgers 6-5.
Jaymo was rewarded with several games off and got back into the lineup against his nemesis squad... the Arizona Diamondbacks. Strike out, one pitch ground out... then it happened, Jaymo goes long and with the 2 run homer the Padres have the lead. The Padrses hold on for a 2-1 victory and Jaymo gets player of the game honours.
Next up...
ChiSox 1 for 4
Rangers 1 for 3 1HR 2 RBI (player of the game)
Indians 2 for 4 1 HR, 3 RBI
After 10 games the Padres sit at 2-8. Jaymo had played well thus far hitting .345 with 10 hits, 3 HR and 9 RBI in 8 games.
Jaymo and the Padres wrapped up Cactus League play and the results were not great. The Padres came in dead last in Cactus play and even worse, looked bad doing it. This team stinks! 8-19 in cactus League play is just embarrasing. As for Jaymo... mixed results to say the least.

The Padres kick off the 2016 season with a two game series at Arizona. The Dbags have had Jaymo's number in recent history but Jaymo had some good at bats in the pre-season. SD is a bad, bad team. This will be a long season. Jaymo's goals are to continue to improve (current 81 ovr with D potential...).
Glad you found a way to pass the time during your holiday since your computer is broken. :up:

With the first series in the books Jaymo is 0/5... and the only starter without a hit. Brutal!
Padres and Jaymo continue to struggle this season. Next up is a 4 game series with the hated Dodgers.
Game 1: Jaymo goes 0/4 and is now o/16 on the season.
Jaymo is moved from cleanup to hitting 3rd...
Game 2: Jaymo finally gets a hit on his 2nd at bat (a single) but ends the game 1/4
Game 3... the breakthrough... Jaymo has a milestone career game going 3/4 with 3 homeruns!!! he last homerun gave the Padres the win, 3-2
For Jaymo's effort he is rewarded by being pulled. However, he is called onto pinch hit in the 7th vs. Josh Beckett. However, Jaymo has a poor at bat and pops out. Talk about screwed up managing of a player. Jaymo was on fire last game, after starting off with a horrible slump and then after success gets benched. Anyways, Dpdgers go onto win 5-2 and take 3 of 4.
So after six games, Jaymo has 4 hits in 21 at bats (.190) with 3 HR and 3 RBI.
The Padres sit at 2-4 and go on the road to San Francisco.
In the first game against the Giants, Jaymo had 4 straight singes. The Padres were up 5-0 going into the 7th. Then the Giants tied it up. In the 8th with 2 on and one out, Jaymo could be the hero... but he grounded out. In the 9th the Giants hit a homer and win 6-5. Padres suck!!!
On the bright-side, Jaymo's hitting jumps up to .308 with 8 hits in 26 at bats.
Game 2.... ugly!!!
strikeout,
ground out
strikeout
Madison Bumgarner had a 1 hitter. Ouch! The Giants won 1-0.
As per usual, the manager moves Jaymo back to cleanup position.
Game 3:
pop out
strikeout
single
pop out
The Padres trail 1-0 going into the 9th then explode to socre 4 runs. In the bottom of the ninth, the Giants score 4 runs and win 5-4. The moral of the story... Padres suck!
After 9 games, Jaymo is hitting .273 with 9 hits in 33 at bats. Padres are hitting .211 as a team which ranks them 28th worst. Ouch!
Heading back to LA...
Jaymo continues to struggle going 0/4
pop out
strikeout

... Padres lose 2-1 after a Dodger homer in the 9th.
After 10 games the Padres are 2-8 and last in the NL West, already 5 games back.
LA game 2...
6-0 Dodgers after the 1st...
ground out
pop out
single with an rbi
strikeout
.... Padres lose 8-3.
LA game 3...
Jaymo starts off the game with a single ripped off the pitcher's (Billingsley) shin which results in an RBI single and a 1-0 lead in the 1st. The bottom of the inning ands 4-1 Dodgers.
In the 4th, Jaymo hits a massive 3 run homer and ties the game at 4-4.
Bat #3 is a strikeout and a bad one at that.
BAT #4 with 2 on and 2 out Jaymo chokes and grounds out. Jaymo is not good at closing the deal with men on board. Nonetheless, the Padres pull off a 6-4 victory.
Jaymo gets player of the game nobs, going 2/4 with 1 HR and 4 RBI.
Next up, a home series with... the Dbags.
vs Dbags....
Game 1: jaymo rides the pine and is brought in to pinch hit in the 8th. A 4 pitch strikeout is the end result. Dbags win 4-3.
Game 2: jaymo goes 1/4 witha homerun, a strikeout and two pop outs. Padres lose 3-2.
After the game, Padres trade RP Troy Patton to the Cubs for SP Aaron Oliver and CP Ken Hecht.
Game 3: jaymo goes 1/4 with a single and an overall weak game. However, the padres pull out a comeback win and avoid the sweep with a 5-2 win
vs Marlins...
jaymo pinch hits in game 1 and as per usual strikes out with men on... No matter, Padres get blasted 6-1...
Game 2: Jackie Robinson day... jaymo gets a lucky hit as he ripped it off the pitcher's leg. 1/4 with yet another strikeout. On the brightside however, Yonder Alonso had a grand slam and the Padres win 4-0.
Game 3: a sinlge, double and 2 RBI (as well as being thrown out at the plate) in 4 attempts. The Padres are on a min streak with 2 straight wins. This game saw the bats come alive with 20 Padre hits!!!
Back at it...
Padres travel to Arizon for another meeting with the dreaded DBags... Jaymo has been snake-bitten by this team. What will happen this series?
Game 1: dreadful... Jaymo goes 1/4 with a single and 1 strikeout. Wade Miley threw a 6 hit shoutout and the Dbags win 3-0.
Game 2 the Padres walk away with a 3-1 victory. Jaymo had 2 singles and one error. Not a great game but better than before.
Game 3: Jaymo was pulled for the game and had a chance to rest. No matter... The Padres lost and the season is off to a dreadful 8-13 start.
Padres now sit 7.5 back. Jaymo is hitting .274 with 5 hr and 11RBI.
