Padres owner looking for buyer
San Diego Padres owner John Moores told MLB.com this weekend that he has hired Goldman Sachs to identify potential buyers for the ballclub. Moores, who bought the team in 1995 for approximately $80 million, said the international banking firm has been hired as a financial advisor to study selling the team either in its entirety, in part or not at all. "My strong desire is to stay involved, because the last decade and a half has been a terrific experience," Moores said in a telephone interview.

Goldman Sachs? They must be looking for a federal buyout.

I hope they get a decent buyer. San Diego has had a good run in the NL for the last decade. It's sad to see what's happened to the franchise in the past year.
