Padres Sale Heats Up With Five Bids Targeting Near-$3B Price
The Seidler family is accelerating the sale of the San Diego Padres, with five prospective buyers submitting bids, including Joe Lacob, Jose Feliciano, Dan Friedkin, and a Drew Brees–Vuori group. While Sportico estimated the franchise at about $2.31 billion, industry sources suggest the sale could exceed $2.5 billion and possibly approach $3 billion, a figure that would set a MLB record if realized, with a potential deal around Opening Day.
