• Padres' Jurickson Profar: Goes deep in Sunday's win

  09/23/2024 • By RotoWire

  Profar went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, two RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the White Sox. Profar knotted the game up in the bottom of the third with a solo home run and then put the Padres ahead for good with a sacrifice fly in the eighth. He now has at least one hit in 13 of his last 15 games but has only driven in four runs despite posting a .345 average during that span. Profar continues to shine in his 31-year-old season, slashing .285/.385/.469 with 24 homers, 85 RBI, 90 runs, 10 steals and a 75:96 BB:K in 646 plate appearances.

• Padres' Jurickson Profar: Homers in four-hit game

  09/17/2024 • By RotoWire

  Profar went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored in Monday's 3-1 win over the Astros. The only blemish on Profar's stat line was when he was caught stealing in the third inning. His bat started to fade in late August, but the outfielder has gone 14-for-43 (.326) with five extra-base hits and nine walks over 12 contests in September. This has been his best season to date, as Profar is slashing .285/.386/.467 with 23 homers, 83 RBI and 87 runs scored, all of which are career highs. He's added nine stolen bases and 27 doubles.

• Padres' Jurickson Profar: Smacks solo homer in loss

  09/06/2024 • By RotoWire

  Profar went 1-for-4 with a solo homer and a walk in Thursday's loss to Detroit. Profar got the Padres on the board with a 411-foot solo homer off Casey Mize in the first inning and later drew a free pass, extending his streak of games with at least one walk to five. The long ball was Profar's 22nd of the season and his first in September -- he's batting just .125 (1-for-8) with two RBI, five walks and a run scored on the month. The outfielder has really struggled at the plate down the stretch, as he also batted just .196 in August. However, he's somewhat been able to make up for his lack of hitting by drawing 18 walks since the start of August, which has helped him score 20 runs over that span.
