Padres for Sale? Seidlers Begin Exploring Their Options

Padres for Sale? Seidlers Begin Exploring Their Options

Author: NBC 7 San Diego November 14, 2025 Duration: 49:12

We probably should've seen this day coming. Almost two years to the day of Peter Seidler's passing, the Seidler family announced that they have begun exploring their options for the franchise, including a potential sale. This has layers, from Peter's legacy, to Sheel's stake and the continuing legal unrest. What does it mean for the baseball product in the near and long term? A.J. Preller's contract limbo makes more sense. Could this benefit the club in the long run? In the meantime we bemoan how things have gone since Peter passed.
