“We did what we were supposed to do, but a little too late,” Machado said. “We’re going to grow from this. ... We’re capable of playing better baseball than we did this year.”
The high-spending Padres were eliminated from postseason contention on Friday night despite a 3-2 win over the Chicago White Sox, a finality that prompted Manny Machado to give teammates a postgame pep talk.
Despite winning 12 of their last 14 games, the Padres could not overcome a mostly sluggish performance by a star-filled team that started the season with the major leagues’ third-highest payroll at nearly $258 million. A 1-9 skid in early May dropped Padres below .500 — San Diego last had a winning record on May 10.
Baseball’s three-highest spenders all failed to reach the postseason, with the New York Mets and Yankees also eliminated.“It’s disappointing,” Martinez said. “There’s lessons to learn from this year; good lessons and bad lessons. Just remember this taste and come out with some hunger for next year.”
