Oakland Athletics' Jurickson Profar hit 20 home runs, but had 13 errors while playing second base in 2019.

The Jurickson Profar experiment at second base for the Oakland A's lasted only a year, as Profar was traded to the San Diego Padres on Monday.

Profar had what can best be described as an up-and-down season for the Oakland Athletics. In his one full season with the A's after being acquired in a trade with the Texas Rangers, he hit 20 home runs and knocked in 67 runs in 139 games.
