1. This man doesn't care what peter believed in hes already choosing profit over fans and his own brother,,,so i know our padres and us fans will suffer while his pockets get full,,,just my honest opinion because actions speak louder than words,,,how do you really feel javy

2. Javier se come el jalapeño

3. The current ownership group has already shown us that they need to sell the team to a more capable owner. The Padres have shown that they are on the cusp of being an elite team and could have easily been a top contender IF the ownership group invested just a little bit more into the product this off season. Instead the current owners did absolutely nothing in terms of FA signings and did nothing to retain any of their own FAs. On top of that they are mandating to Preller that the payroll needs to be reduced! Meaning that either Cease, King or Arraez needs to be moved. I have no doubt Preller will work some sort of magic and somehow make it work, but can you imagine what he could do with an actual budget? This is so unfair to the fans who have shown that they WILL support the team as long as they show they are doing all they can to produce a winner and they deserve better than having to settle for a cost cutting, budget concious ownership that puts profit above winning.

4. I'm not worried about Padres off-season activity, unlike every other team this past decade, the team has fewer concerns and there is the entire Spring Training to see what the Padres have and if there are any unexpected issues to address.

   Look, the Dodgers spent big because the recognized thrir team was clearly inferior and had to rebuild most if the team. The Dodgers have the means by raising prices and upgrading their ballpark. Padres fans aren't going to be seeing those kinds of extreme revenue increases to fund the massive increase in taxed payroll the Dodgers are going to have for at least the next 4 years.

   I don't know what changes might happening before Opening Day but I think the current team as it is should compete for the division lead and has a better starting rotation than every other NL West team today.

5. You are mean. And you are the worse Locked On host of all the hosts. You do not respect your listeners/viewers as you slurp water in front of us all. You are so unprofessional on these podcasts.

6. They can sell the team to Elon musk, he won't lose money, won't spend more than what the team can earn. It's a business

7. The Dodgers spending has made me kind of uninterested in having hope the Padres can get past them, especially considering the lack of activity. As to Arraez, I still just don't understand how a guy can work so hard at hitting and then just really not give that same effort to defense. Perhaps its the changing positions, but he's never been very good defensively.

8. My question is why haven’t we done something with Sean Reynolds 6ft 8 with a cannon 21 ks in 10 innings

9. Javier can you please explain the Padres TV situation. They were part of Bally Sports but they were not paying money that was overdue so now MLB takes over. Can you explain in easy to unde stand terms ?

10. One thing the Seidler brothers might want to do is reach out to Sheel Seidler and see if they can reach a settlement of the lawsuit outside of court. Maybe they can give her some type of minority controlling interest.

    Still not worried about the lack of moves. I trust AJ has a plan for the roster and understands our needs and how to fill them.

    Question for Monday's Show: Have you ever thought about going to Arizona for spring training to do some episodes from there? I'm sure the Locked On Network can afford to pay for the airfare and hotel for one week at least.

11. Miserable padres . Javier should alter other person. Javier always talking meanless discussion.
    Lol😂
