Jackson Merrill signed a nine-year contract extension with the San Diego Padres in early April 2025. The deal is worth about $135 million and can max out around $204 million with escalators and a potential $30 million club option for an extra season.

The Padres' star sacrificed at least three years of free agency — maybe four — and perhaps even more money along with it.
