Peter Seidler, the grandson of former Dodgers owner Walter O’Malley and the Padres’ lead investor said he was extremely disappointed by the whole news section that surrounds his $340 Million player, Fernando Tatis Jr.

“It was a significant body blow for him, for the organization, and for the fans,’’ Peter Seidler says. “But yelling, screaming, breaking glasses, that wasn’t going to help anything. In my experience, this can make you stronger and better.’’

“The wrong way to look at it,’’ Seidler says, “is to be angry at a 23-year-old young man. We’ve had him since he was 17. He has grown up in front of our eyes. I know he’s a good guy with a good heart and he cares.’’

“No regrets,’’ Seider says. “No. No. No. Fernando Tatis knows I have his back. There’s no way you go into a 14-year relationship and think it’s going to be a smooth ride for pure joy and happiness. Your eyes are wide open. There’s going to be a mistake or hiccup. I knew that going in. It’s a similar feeling in any long-term relationship.
