In August, Walter's company TWG Global said there was no fire sale of his sports assets, and specifically said the Cadillac F1 team & the Dodgers were not for sale.
Well, now the F1 team is for sale.
TWG said then there was also no fraud and no victim.

Mark Walter is shopping his Cadillac F1 team with an asking price of at least $3 billion, according to three people familiar with the process. There are at least seven parties interested in the team, which is wrapping up its Formula 1 season.

SCOOP: Mark Walter is exploring selling his Cadillac F1 team at a $3 billion valuation. Comes 2 months after TWG said it was "not considering exiting its stake" in the team.

Until Walter’s legal troubles are clearly behind him, I don’t think you can truly say the Dodgers won’t become available for sale or that it won’t affect how they operate.

Luis Gutierrez won’t wow with his stuff. Can touch upper 90s but it’s not a great shaped fastball. Will need to rely on location. Has shown an ability to throw fastballs up and in to righties. Backend type of arm that has a feel for pitching.

The Los Angeles Dodgers hire Caroline Perry away from the San Diego Padres to become their executive vice president and chief operating officer. Perry, who had been the Padres' highest-ranking female employee in franchise history, had been with the Padres for the past 16 years.

Gutierrez likely isn't ready to compete for a roster spot at the start of 2027, but in a system as lacking in starting pitching as they are, they could not afford to let him walk away as a minor league free agent.

We have tendered a qualifying offer to LHP Adrian Morejon and selected LHP Luis Gutierrez to the Major League roster.

Matsui: “I wanted to come back because I believe in this team and the fans deserve a championship. They support this team every game and that means a lot to me and my teammates.”

This was expected. There are questions about his elbow. Could still work out a deal that protects team if he is hurt/rewards Pivetta if he remains healthy.
switz retweeted
The Padres declined the $14 million option on Nick Pivetta’s contract.
He will be a free agent. Padres could sign him to a new deal.

If Alex McCoy turns into a legitimate top 100 prospect or regular middle-of-order-bat, it would be ridiculous.
