San Diego Padres Power Rankings - 2013
| Power Ranking | ||||
| WEEK | RECORD | RANK | COMMENT | |
| Week 8 | 20-23 | 22 | For all the talk about the difficulty of hitting in Petco Park, the Padres are hitting .254/.327/.399 at home with 20 home runs in 22 games, but .239/.308/.368 on the road, with 19 home runs in 21 games. -- David Schoenfield, SweetSpot | |
| Week 7 | 16-21 | 21 | Things were looking up after they swept the Marlins, but then they began a tough upcoming slate of games by getting swept in Tampa Bay, including a tough walk-off loss on Saturday when Huston Street served up the game-losing two-run homer to Evan Longoria. That's five home runs already allowed by Street in just 14 2/3 innings. -- David Schoenfield, SweetSpot | |
| Week 6 | 13-18 | 26 | The Padres are 8-3 over their past 11 games (rookie Jedd Gyorko had a nice week, hitting .391 with five RBIs and his first two big league homers), but five of their next six series are against Tampa Bay, Baltimore, Washington, St. Louis and Arizona. With a good stretch, they can stay close; a bad stretch will dig a big hole. -- David Schoenfield, SweetSpot | |
| Week 5 | 9-15 | 28 | The Padres are fresh off sweeping a three-game series from the Giants, the first time the Padres have swept the Giants since May 2010. -- ESPN.com | |
| Week 4 | 5-13 | 27 | After an impressive sweep over the Dodgers in L.A., the Padres got swept in San Francisco, hitting .174 and getting shut out on Saturday and Sunday in games started by Tim Lincecum and Barry Zito. -- David Schoenfield, SweetSpot | |
| Week 3 | 2-10 | 29 | Opening Day starter Edinson Volquez has lost all three of his starts and has allowed 17 runs in 12 1/3 innings, which is one primary reason the Padres have sunk quickly to last in the NL West. -- David Schoenfield, SweetSpot | |
| Week 2 | 1-5 | 28 | The Padres have the worst run differential in the majors (minus-26!), hit one home run and gave up 10 home runs. That should get the fans pumped up for the home opener against the Dodgers on Tuesday. -- David Schoenfield, SweetSpot | |
| Week 1 | 0-0 | 23 | In what has been a journeyman career, Jason Marquis is entering his 14th season (with eight different teams) in the majors. -- ESPN.com | |
