Padres To Sign Miguel Andujar
The Padres have an agreement with free agent corner infielder/outfielder Miguel Andujar, reports Jon Heyman of The New York Post. It’s a one-year, $4MM contract, reports Jeff Passan of ESPN.
It’s a tidy bit of business for San Diego, who add a strong right-handed bat on a modest one-year contract. Andujar, 31 next month, put together an excellent .318/.352/.470 slash line over 94 games a year ago. He split the year between the A’s and Reds, so he was certainly the beneficiary of favorable home parks, but that’s above-average production in any stadium.
It was Andujar’s best season since his 2018 Rookie of the Year runner-up campaign when he played for the Yankees. He has been a part-time player for the majority of his career and didn’t get to 200 plate appearances in any season from 2019-23. He tallied 319 trips to the plate while putting up a league average .285/.320/.377 mark for the A’s in 2024. Andujar weathered a pair of injuries that year, undergoing an early-season meniscus repair on his right knee and a season-ending core procedure in August.
More to come.
