Jurickson Barthelomeus Profar (born February 20, 1993) is a Curaçaoan professional baseball outfielder for the San Diego Padres of Major League Baseball (MLB). He has previously played in MLB for the Texas Rangers, Oakland Athletics, and Colorado Rockies.
Profar was born in Willemstad and has been involved in organized baseball from a young age, representing Curaçao at the Little League World Series in 2004 and 2005. In 2009, when he was 16 years old, Profar signed with the Rangers as an international free agent. He was called up to the major leagues in 2012 and received partial playing time in his first two seasons as a utility player. After suffering a shoulder injury, Profar missed two full seasons and did not rejoin the Rangers until mid-2016 when he filled an active roster vacancy. Texas continued to use Profar sparingly until 2018 when he played more than 100 games in a season for the first time in his career.
After ten years in the Rangers organization, Profar was traded to the Athletics for the 2019 season. He received a more static role at second base with Oakland, but he was traded to the Padres after struggling on both offense and defense. Upon arriving in San Diego, Profar was transitioned from a utility infielder to an outfielder, primarily playing in left field. In 2022, he set career highs in plate appearances and hits.
