Adrian Morejon and the San Diego Padres agreed on a $3.9 million deal for the 2026 season to avoid arbitration.
Fantasy Impact
Morejon has become a force in the back-end of the Padres' bullpen over the past two seasons. The lefty was sensational last year as he won 13 games as a reliever and pitched to a 2.08 ERA in a career-high 73.2 innings. He has a career ERA of 3.43 in 212.1 innings, all with San Diego. Morejon will likely serve as the primary setup man for the Padres in 2026.
Padres manager Craig Stammen said Monday that Adrián Morejón will remain in the bullpen next season.
Fantasy Impact
“It’s a risky proposition health-wise and performance-wise," Stammen said on the idea of moving a reliever into the starting rotation. Morejon should remain in a high leverage role in the Padres bullpen.
