Our old friend Jurickson Profar is returning to the San Diego Padres on a one year deal worth $1 million, per multiple reports. A.J. Preller just can’t quit him...
Profar, of course, was a top prospect for the Rangers before a shoulder injury cost him two seasons. He was never really the same after that, and after a solid 2018 season, the Rangers traded him to Oakland in a three-way deal also involving the Tampa Bay Rays that fetched Texas Brock Burke, among others.
Profar was then traded to San Diego after the 2019 season, was okay in 2020, re-signed with San Diego on a three year deal with an opt out after year two, and exercised that opt out clause after the 2022 season.
