The deal also includes a $4M mutual option for 2017 and a $1 Buyout which the Padres are likely hoping one of their shortstop prospects is ready for the job to start 2017 but gives them a nice insurance option assuming Ramirez has a good season and if their future shortstop isn’t quite ready for the major league level.
