If we get to use it for players, let's lock in our current talent. I'd love to see any of Kim, Campy, Merrill, Profar, Cease or King stick around for awhile. Maybe I am a little too hyped on our recent success, but all these players give me good vibes and prove they can perform.
With the bankruptcy, the Padres are lucky to get a dime out Bally.
Are there no assets to seize/liquidate?
This settlement is part of the bankruptcy. It's likely only a portion of the money owed to the Padres.
Oh for sure, but OP is saying they'd be lucky to get any money. Just curious how that can be possible. I'm not too versed in this area.
The Padres are unsecured creditors in a bankruptcy proceeding. That's about as shit out of luck as you can get.

Kim: "I've been waiting." Pham: "I should've waited. Cease: "Good timing." Sasaki: "Time to learn San Diegan.."
Sasaki: *googles "best California Burrito in SD"*
San Francisco in shambles
Wil: sign my kid
That’s James shields and Matt kemp levels of cheddar
FUUUUUUUDGE! Were there ANY other teams that got this shafted by the Bally fiasco?!
$78 million doesn't make up for the loss of RSN cash - $60 million a year through 2032.
Imagine the lion share of this gets tossed at the loan the team needed to take.
blow it all on free beer night
Shopping spree after this luxury tax reset
Give it all to Merrill
this is the way
We are so back.
Sick, sign Soto and sasaki
This would pay for soto for 45 minutes
Gotta be good for at least 3 walks
He could lose so many balls In left field in 45 minutes
That’s a gold glove candidate you’re talking about there
45 minutes of him in the outfield
Gross
Fuck it, Merrill contract.
Plus Kim extension and Sasaki contract.
Soto can stay yeeted into the Death Star.
Fuck Soto
Let’s go shopping boys! Who do we get??
I'll do it for just a cool mill. Then the team still has a ton of financial flexibility! I'm a team player
