Jurickson Profar (30), who still remains in the FA market, what uniform will he wear?
Ken Rosenthal, a major league columnist for ‘The Athletic’, said in a column on the 25th (Korean time) that the Baltimore Orioles are investigating the possibility of signing Profar.

Profar, who signed a three-year, $21 million contract with the Padres in January 2021, was able to continue this relationship into 2023, but gave up the remaining $7.5 million in annual salary and came to the market using an opt-out clause. 스포츠토토 As he showed good performance last season, he tried to reevaluate his value through a multi-year contract.
Rosenthal called Profar “the best beast left on the market,” and predicted he’d want a multi-year contract with at least an average annual payout equal to what he gave up.
