They’re straight up buying an All Star team. This is “great for baseball” though.

I would like to take this time to apologize to Justin Herbert. This Chargers team is so bad. The fact he kept them in as many games as he has is crazy.

If the Dodgers can’t trust Yamamoto to be good enough to start in an elimination game on full rest, it’s fair to ask why they paid him $325M.

Let me get this straight: the “good for baseball” Dodgers are allowed to defer $680M till an unspecified date and pay Shohei Ohtani $2M per year. Meanwhile, the “small-market” Padres have to stay under $200M or else face consequences from Major League Baseball?

If you think Paul Skenes deserves to win ROTY, that’s fine. He’s having a historical season. But don’t try to diminish what Jackson Merrill has done this season by calling it “good for a rookie.” . He’s been the best outfielder in the NL and a game changer on a playoff team.

A lot of bad things have happened to the Padres in the last year. None will be worse than this. Peter not only gave fans something to root for, he gave us something to believe in. He forever changed the landscape of baseball in San Diego.

The vast rise in interest for baseball in San Diego is 100% because of Seidler. He understood the importance of both community and prioritizing the interests of fans.
@LastDiveBar A big reason Padres fans miss Peter so much is you could tell how much he genuinely cared about the fans and the city. It wasn’t just about putting a team on the field.

Just a reminder that Darvish and his wife Seiko dropped everything they were doing to pay their respects to Peter when the news passed.
Yu Darvish cares more about his team than anyone. I guarantee you his teammates would agree with that. I’m sorry but some things are more important than baseball and suggesting he’s milking it for personal gain is awful.

“Be mad at your team for being cheap”. Not every team has an $8.3 Billion TV deal in a mega market. The Dodgers (and maybe the Yankees) are the only ones who could probably do this.
Are people really that bothered by the Snell signing?. Baseball is BY FAR the sport with the most parity in the US. Haven’t had a repeat winner since 2000. Seems people are upset before they have a reason to be. Don’t be mad at the Dodgers. Be mad at your team for being cheap.
