MLB Rumors: Jurickson Profar and the San Diego Padres have agreed to terms on a three year, $21 million deal, per Jeff Passan.
While the Padres have been rumored to be in on Profar all offseason, this is still something that on its surface seems to be somewhat surprising. The Padres have Fernando Tatis, Jr., and Manny Machado entrenched on the left side of their infield, and while Jake Cronenworth had a strong rookie season, he has already been displaced at second base by the newly signed Ha-seong Kim.
Profar, of course, was one of the top prospects in baseball in the early part of the 10s, making his major league debut in 2012 with the Texas Rangers as a 19 year old. The Rangers moved him around between a variety of positions in 2013 in what was intended to be a super-utility role, then traded Ian Kinsler after the 2013 season to open up the second base job for Profar.
