Sheel Seidler reacts to Padres' $3.9 billion sale to new ownership group

Sheel Seidler, widow of late Padres owner Peter Seidler, expressed mixed emotions about the sale of the team to José E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones for a record $3.9 billion. In her statement, she conveyed gratitude for her journey with the Padres and belief that the new owners share her late husband's vision for the franchise. MLB owners approved the sale unanimously, which was initially agreed upon in April. This transition marks a significant change for the team, set to close in the coming days, with an introductory press conference planned for August 25 in San Diego.
