Padres ownership are a bunch of nogoodniks

I have written several times about the fishy relationship between Padres brass and the Boston Red Sox. Something about the Adrian Gonzalez trade for pretty much nothing earlier this year did not pass the smell check. Now the Red Sox GM Theo Epstein resigns to join up with his pal Padres G.M. Jed Hoyer with the Cubs.

Interesting article in the Boston Herald today. Obviously other people elsewhere see that something is up to no good as well.  These allegations of chicanery and a setup with the Gonzales giveaway need to be investigated by major league baseball.

Jeff Moorad and his obviously underfunded absentee ownership group are in the process of decimating a franchise that was one win from winning the division last year. Now it is a wreck. But the slick owner is making the second highest profit in baseball, at least according to Forbes magazine.

Moorad makes Frank McCourt look like Abner Doubleday. Either petition the league to become a triple a farm club so you can keep giving away our best talent to your boy toys or sell the team, Jeff. You have destroyed a once proud franchise.
