Free agent outfielder Jurickson Profar signed a three-year, $42 million contract with the Atlanta Braves on Thursday.
The Braves outlined Profar will receive $12 million in 2025 and $15 million in 2026 and 2027.
Profar is coming off a stellar season with .280 with 24 homers and 85 RBIs — all career highs — in 158 games for the San Diego Padres. He also set career bests of 94 runs and 158 hits while earning his first All-Star nod.
San Diego signed a largely unwanted Profar after the start of spring training when it needed a left fielder.
Profar twice hit 20 homers earlier this career — in 2018 for the Texas Rangers and 2019 for the Oakland Athletics.
Profar has a .245 career average with 111 homers and 444 RBIs in 1,119 games with the Texas Rangers (2012-13, 2016-18), Oakland Athletics (2019), Padres (2020-22, 23-24) and Colorado Rockies (2023).
