Fantasy Impact
The 27-year-old spent the 2020 season in San Diego, hitting .278/.343/.428 with seven homers and seven steals. The Padres continue to be one of the most (only) teams trying to get better this offseason. Profar feels like a luxury signing for them as he might not even be an everyday player. All three of Profar, Ha-Seong Kim, and Jake Cronenworth give manager Jayce Tingler plenty of versatility. This is going to be one of the most fun teams to watch in 2021.
