The San Diego Padres are in the midst of an ownership lawsuit that involves the late Peter Seidler’s wife, Sheel Seidler, and her brothers over who should control the team. While this situation doesn’t appear to have a solution in sight anytime soon, the future of the franchise will certainly depend on how things pan out.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the lawsuit and the statement Sheel released, the obligation she feels to Padres fans and her late husband’s legacy and her efforts to continue building a winning team. They also explore how this messy drama could affect the Padres’ offseason plans, including their pursuit of Roki Sasaki and other free agents.
Also in this episode of Baseball-B-Cast Barthe guys talk about the San Francisco Giants signing Justin Verlander and his expectations for his age-42 season, the Los Angeles Dodgers trading Gavin Lux to the Cincinnati Reds and Brent Rooker signing an extension with the Sacramento A’s. Later, the guys read a hilarious mention of Jazz Chisholm Jr., open the barbecue mailbag and make their choice. The good, the bad and the Uggla.
