Peter Seidler passed away on Tuesday and while it is a sad time around San Diego, we can all be inspired by the man that he was. Care about others. Be kind. Look at things glass half full more often than glass half empty. Don’t do just do things for the money—do it because it's the right thing to do. Hopefully more human beings will be motivated to be more like Peter. I’m sure that’s what he would want.

The San Diego Padres announced today that Peter Seidler has passed away at the age of 63. “The Padres organization mourns the passing of our beloved Chairman and owner, Peter Seidler,” said Padres CEO Erik Greupner in a statement. “Today, our love and prayers encircle Peter’s family as they grieve the loss of an extraordinary husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend. Peter was a kind and generous man who was devoted to his wife, children, and extended family. He also consistently exhibited heartfelt compassion for others, especially those less fortunate. His impact on the city of San Diego and the baseball world will be felt for generations. His generous spirit is now firmly embedded in the fabric of the Padres. Although he was our Chairman and owner, Peter was at his core a Padres fan. He will be dearly missed.” Ben Fadden gives his thoughts on how much Peter Seidler meant to San Diego and the Padres organization. We all are wishing the best to his family and those close to him during this tough time.

Josh Hader had the opportunity to go four outs in Monday's loss to the Giants but decided not to do so. After the game, he was the latest Padre to essentially admit to quitting and not giving full effort. What a bad look. Dennis Lin is hearing widespread speculation that Bob Melvin will either voluntarily leave the organization or be fired after the season. Is him choosing to leave actually a possibility? Plus, Manny Machado seemed to be blaming the media in his final comments at Petco Park this season. And Kevin Acee is reporting the Padres are planning on cutting their payroll all the way down to around $200 million. How could they do that?

There was a report that came out Tuesday in The Athletic from Dennis Lin and Ken Rosenthal that discussed the problems going on between the front office and coaching staff in San Diego. A.J. Preller and Bob Melvin's relationship is being compared to a toxic relationship between two parents and it has become "one of the worst-kept secrets in baseball". Why would Melvin want to stay after the season and what needs to change with how Preller operates?
