Padres Change Twitter Username to "Madres" For Mother's Day, "Padres" Snatched Up By Some Random Kid

Whoever the social media coordinator for the Padres is is about to get into a WORLD of sh*t with their bosses. They only have 400K followers which is a low amount for an MLB team but organizations like this treat their social media like currency, and as they should. This account is worth a LOT of money to the Padres.

Which brings me to my next point: how much money are you holding out for from the Padres if you’re Ricky Padilla here? $10K? $100K? I mean the Padres just threw $300MM at Manny Machado without batting an eye and have a $100MM+ Eric Hosmer contract on the books, so it’s not like they’re strapped for cash (obviously). This kid better play this hand right and hold out for as much money as possible...

Since the name still belongs to Twitter it should be easy to get back. Give tge kid a signed ball for being there to pick up the name on waivers.

Back in the 90’s some schmuck bar owner tried to grab the Pittsburgh Pirates’ internet domain (the team was officially known as the Pittsburgh Baseball Club at that time).
