Padres General Manager dismisses criticisms of team’s lackluster performance

Postgame Preller: “If you give a dog a bone, he’s not gonna want to go fetch now, is he? Go yell at the Chargers. We’re perfectly happy the way things are, and in the end, we think you are, too. The low after a loss is nothing like the low after a win, because after a win, what do you have left to hope for? The way I look at it, we’re off to a strong start, having notched a solid victory against unrealistic expectations."
