Peter Seidler is an American businessman. He is the chairman of the San Diego Padres of Major League Baseball. Seidler is the grandson of Walter O’Malley and nephew of Peter O’Malley.

Peter founded a private equity firm, Seidler Equity Partners in Marina del Rey, California, and is the managing partner. The firm’s net worth has been estimated to be $3 billion.

In 2012, Seidler, his uncle Peter, and Ron Fowler formed the O’Malley Group, which purchased the Padres from John Moores.
