Jurickson Profar is tied for the NL lead with seven RBIs and two home runs, playing better left field
in the outfield. “So I had to do something different to be able to perform at this level every day.”
He is still being platooned in left field to a certain extent with Matt Beaty, who was in the starting lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Giants and right-hander Alex Cobb. Profar has also been lifted late in three games for a defensive replacement, including two innings after his impressive running catch Monday.“I don’t make those decisions,” Profar said Tuesday, smiling wide. “But I will keep working.
“In Curacao, I don’t get to work out for a baseball season like it should be,” Profar said. “That’s why I went to the baseball country to work out on baseball things.” His quest makes a certain kind of circular sense, because Profar was Fernando Tatis Jr. before Tatis was Tatis. He was benched before the All-Star break in ’19 and came to the Padres in a November 2019 trade that sent minor league catcher Austin Allen to the A’s.
