Initial bids are in for the Padres, and they include an ownership group headed up by a Hall of Fame QB. Drew Brees has teamed up with the CEO of Vuori to make a run at the Friars. Darnay discusses the surprising development with Sports Illustrated MLB Writer Ryan Phillips. He explains why fans should feel really good about the direction the sale is headed. What bidder is he most interested in at this point? The WBC arrives next week and Manny Machado looks ready. Should we be worried about how the Padres will start this season because of what happened after the 2023 WBC? Have we discovered one clear difference between Craig Stammen and Mike Shildt? The new skipper is experimenting with the Padres lineup. Darnay and Ryan discuss one possible starting point.
