Former Cincinnati Reds infielder\/outfielder is headed to the San Diego Padres, according to MLB Network’s Jon Heyman. <\/a><\/p>\n

The deal is for one year and $4 million and has a mutual option for 2027. <\/p>\n

After coming over to the Reds at last year’s MLB trade deadline, Andujar was terrific, when healthy, slashing .359\/.400\/.544 with 11 extra-base hits in just 34 games.<\/p>\n

Throughout his career, the 30-year-old has been known as a player who rakes against left-handed pitching, slashing .297\/.332\/.475 with 104 extra-base hits, including 36 home runs.<\/p>\n

Before the Reds signed Eugenio Suarez earlier this week, it felt like Andujar could be a target that they would pursue. <\/p>\n

Andujar has played for the New York Yankees, Oakland Athletics, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Reds over his nine-year MLB career.<\/p>\n

Reds President of Baseball Operations Nick Krall spoke to the media on Tuesday and hinted that the Reds roster is pretty much set going into Spring Training. <\/p>\n

“This is where we are barring an unforeseen circumstance,” Krall said.<\/a><\/p>\n
