San Diego fans just got Michael King back on a three-year, $75 million deal, but there’s a twist—he can opt out after 2026. If King bounces back from injuries and delivers another Cy Young-level season, he’s likely to test free agency for a bigger, longer contract. With the Padres’ tight budget, it’s hard to see them matching what other teams might offer. It’s a gamble: root for King to dominate, but know it could mean saying goodbye to your ace sooner than you’d like. What would you do if you were the Padres’ front office? #Sports #Baseball #Padres
