Mike Shildt led the San Diego Padres to a 93-69 record and a playoff appearance in his first season as manager, and the team is reportedly keeping him for longer as a result.

Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune and Dennis Lin of The Athletic reported Tuesday that San Diego is finalizing a two-year contract extension with Shildt and could announce the deal Wednesday.

The manager was signed through just the 2025 campaign on his previous deal, so this means he will be in place through the 2027 season.
