New Padres owners Feliciano and Jones target franchise's first World Series title

José E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones were introduced as the new owners of the San Diego Padres during a news conference on Monday. Feliciano emphasized the goal of winning the franchise's first World Series, stating, 'We need to win a World Series.' The couple, who acquired the team at a record valuation of $3.9 billion, plan to invest in both the team and the San Diego community. The Padres are currently in playoff contention, having won 21 of their last 28 games. Feliciano and Jones are committed to continuing the legacy of former owner Peter Seidler, who strongly pursued championship glory before his passing in 2023. The new ownership aims for a balance between aggressive investment and the team's long-term health.
