Padres lose sixth straight game 5-0 to Mets

The San Diego Padres lost 5-0 to the New York Mets on June 5, 2026, marking their sixth consecutive defeat. Manny Machado spoke with reporters after the game and responded to questions about whether the team needs greater urgency.

Team performance and recent results The Padres entered May 18 with a 29-18 record and led the National League West. Since then they have played to a 32-30 mark and sit just above .500. Over their last 13 games the club is 3-10. The team ranks at or near the bottom of the league in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage, runs scored, and runs batted in.

Player comments and roster moves Machado said the team is aware of its results and is focused on staying positive.

“You guys want to hit the panic button, you guys have all been talking about it, you have all been negative about everything we've been doing, and we already know what we've been doing." The club designated Nick Castellanos for assignment on June 3 and released him two days later. Castellanos had posted a .191/.221/.339 slash line with four home runs. Fernando Tatis Jr. recorded his first home run of the season on May 30 and has hit .380 since that date. Machado is batting .175 on the season. He stated that every game remains important given the team's position last season.”
