This is the worst-case scenario for Padres fans.

With hopes of a World Series title in our minds, we watched our superstar shortstop, fresh off a 14-year, $340 million extension crumple to the ground on a swing before leaving the game with what’s been dubbed a ‘left shoulder subluxation’.

San Diego will re-evaluate Tatis Jr.’s condition on Tuesday, so for now, we’re stuck in the dark. But it looked bad, to say the least.

We aren’t going to sit here and speculate about the severity of the injury or a potential timeline because we don’t have any information.
