Playoffs would take a miracle, but winning record possible
Murphy on Padres' 9-0 win 1:46 8/18/15: Padres manager Pat Murphy talks about the 9-0 win over the Braves, James Shields' outing and Melvin Upton Jr.'s breakout game "Forget the Wild Card," he wrote. "If [the Padres] take the six games remaining with both the Giants and Dodgers and win five of the six the vs. the D-backs and Rockies, the Padres could win the division, if the Giants and Dodgers split their remaining games.
"This would be better than winning the Wild Card. I think they could do it by going 31-10 or 32-9."
There you have it Padres fans ... the perfect plan.
