How are these 11 members of the 2024 Padres performing with their new teams?

The 2024 San Diego Padres won 93 games last year. They were a talented and tight-knit bunch that forced a Game 5 elimination contest against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLDS. Plenty of memories were made this season, so let's take a look back at how the players who did not return to San Diego for the 2025 campaign.

Nick Ahmed

Although he only played in two games with the Friars last year, Ahmed was once considered to be the next back-up shortstop at Petco Park. It didn't pan out, and with the Texas Rangers this year, the two-time Gold Glover is batting 0-for-9 with a walk.

José Azócar

Signed off waivers by the New York Mets this past week, Azócar elected free agency and was picked up by the Atlanta Braves. In 12 games with the Mets this season, Azócar was a .278 hitter with five runs.

Tom Cosgrove

Drafted by the Padres, Cosgrove finally moved on from San Diego following a very forgettable 2024 campaign. He is now with the Chicago Cubs, and has logged just four innings this season. He's allowed one run with three strikeouts.

Enyel De Los Santos

De Los Santos had a hard time finding a home in 2024. He pitched for three teams, including 40 games with the Padres. He is now a member of the Braves, producing 24 strikeouts in 24 innings, donning a 3.38 ERA across 23 appearances.

Carl Edwards Jr.

Edwards Jr. made just one appearance in 2024 with San Diego. He's seen a slight uptick in game time this year, doing so with the Los Angeles Angels. In three innings, he's recorded two strikeouts and three runs allowed.

Kyle Higashioka

Padres fans may miss Higahioka the most among players who departed from the 2024 roster. He posted 28 extra-base hits in 84 games, with 17 homers and 45 RBIs, and was a great defensive catcher.

He hasn't quite found that success with the Texas Rangers this year, though. Higashioka has only one home run this season, but is a .241 hitter.

Ha-Seong Kim

Kim has yet to play this season as he recovers from a shoulder surgery, but he is currently on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham before he makes his debut with the Tampa Bay Rays.

Martín Pérez

Pérez was pretty solid with the Chicago White Sox in 2025 before landing on the 60-day injured list with elbow inflammation. In four starts, he boasts a 3.15 ERA, striking out 18 batters in 20 frames.

Jurickson Profar

Following an All-Star season with the Friars, fans wanted him back for another year. It wound up working out, though, as Profar is suspended due to violating MLB's performance-enhancing drugs policy. He's with the Braves, but has yet to suit up.

Tanner Scott

Scott has not been the star left-handed reliever that the Dodgers were hoping him to be. With a 4.25 ERA in 27 appearances, Scott currently has a career-low 9.8 K/9. He's allowed four home runs already, which is more than he gave up all of last season (three).

Donovan Solano

Solano was an under-the-radar contributor for San Diego last year, batting .286 with a 113 OPS+ across 96 games. The 37-year-old has struggled mightily with the Seattle Mariners, however, and is clipping a .173 average with 19 strikeouts in 75 at-bats.
