Padres Re-sign Jurickson Profar in Bid to Strengthen Outfield

The one-year deal worth $1 million aims to add depth and versatility to the Padres' outfield, which currently lacks sufficient options.

Jurickson Profar and the San Diego Padres have agreed to a $1 million, one-year contract, with the potential for an additional $1.5 million in performance bonuses.
Profar, a 30-year-old outfielder, brings experience and versatility to the Padres, having played various positions including left field and first base.
The deal aims to bolster the Padres' outfield, currently featuring only two other outfielders on their active roster.
Some Padres fans express skepticism about the decision to re-sign Profar, citing his recent performance and the team's past spending.
The Padres continue to seek additional outfield help, indicating that Profar's role may primarily provide depth and experience.
