Due to this, the Padres are now being predicted to sign one of baseball's top free agents this offseason.
Sports Illustrated's Nicholas Selbe predicted that the Padres will sign star free agent slugger Seiya Suzuki to a four-year, $110 million contract in free agency this offseason.

With the Padres needing help in their outfield, it would be entirely understandable if they pushed hard to sign Suzuki this offseason. The Padres need another star if they hope to be legitimate contenders next year, and bringing in a high-impact slugger like Suzuki would give them just that.
Suzuki's stats from this season show that he is a difference-maker. In 143 games with the Chicago Cubs in 2026, he posted 26 home runs, 86 RBI, and a .270 batting average. This is after he had 32 home runs and 103 RBI in 151 games during the 2025 season with the Cubs.
With numbers like these, Suzuki would be a very good player for San Diego to add to their front half of their batting order. It will be intriguing to see if they sign him because of it from here.
