NBC 7/39 is reporting that Padres owner John Moores is going to sell 49 percent of the team as part of a divorce settlement with his wife Becky. This comes as a surprise, but it could ultimately be good news for the Padres franchise. There's been speculation that the Padres would severely cut back payroll this winter because Moores was going to a major portion of his assets. Perhaps that will happen anyway -- these things rarely come together quickly -- but the Padres could be better positioned going forward with another owner.Source: NBC 7/39
