The Padres have reminded fans about their zero-tolerance policy for bad behavior ahead of Game 3 of their NL Division Series against the rival Dodgers.
A day after being called "irrelevant" by Dodgers catcher Will Smith, Jurickson Profar came through with a three-run double in the seventh inning that gave San Diego the series win. As teammate Manny Machado said, "Put a little bit of respect on his name."
After a heated exchange that left a sour taste Saturday, the San Diego Padres responded to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday.
The San Diego Padres' uncertain outfield mix got slightly more clarity on Monday, when the team agreed to bring back utility player Jurickson Profar on a one-year, $1 million contract.
Jurickson Profar, who spent three seasons with San Diego before joining the Rockies last offseason, has signed a minor-league deal with the Padres.
Xander Bogaerts, Carlos Correa and Jacob deGrom are among the stars who have opted out of their contracts and have become free agents.
