Padres Re-Sign Utility Man Jurickson Profar to One-Year Deal

The Padres finally added some outfield help.

Your San Diego Padres have brought back utilityman Jurickson Profar, per Robert Murray of FanSided.

According to Murray, the Profar signed a one-year, $1 million deal with an additional $1.5 million in incentives.

Profar, 30, played three years in San Diego from 2019 to 2022. The switch-hitter played nearly every defensive position during that time.

Last offseason, he signed a one-year, $7.75 million deal with the Colorado Rockies. The Rockies released him after he struggled through August - when he resigned with the Padres.

During his return, he hit fairly well in limited action, slashing .295/.367/.409. Now, he comes back for a third time to give the team much-needed outfield help and depth in the infield.
