Jason Adam - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Avoids arbitration with San Diego Adam signed a one-year contract with the Padres on Thursday to avoid arbitration.

Impact Adam earned his first All-Star selection in 2025, and he finished the regular season with a 1.93 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, 30 holds (tied for fifth most in the majors) and a 70:25 K:BB across 65.1 innings. His 2025 campaign came to an abrupt halt in September after rupturing a tendon in his left quadriceps. After undergoing surgery that requires a recovery timeline of 6-to-9 months, the 34-year-old right-hander is expected to start the 2026 season on the injured list. However, per Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune in early December, Adam is expected to be ready to throw off a mound in spring training and may not need a lengthy stint on the IL.

The 34-year-old boasts a 1.66 ERA and 101:32 K:BB over 92 regular-season innings during his time with the Padres.

Out at least six months post-surgery Adam is expected to face a recovery timeline of 6-to-9 months after he underwent surgery Sept. 3 to address a ruptured left quadriceps tendon, MLB.com reports.

Impact Adam sustained the season-ending injury during his relief appearance against the Orioles on Sept. 1, when he felt the quad pop while he tried to make a defensive play. Though his surgery seems to have gone off without a hitch, Adam's estimated recovery timeline suggests that he won't be ready to go for the start of spring training in February, and his availability for Opening Day could also be in question. The 34-year-old right-hander, who is under club control through 2026, was a first-time All-Star this season and accrued a 1.93 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 70:25 K:BB to go with eight wins and 30 holds over 65.1 innings before rupturing his quad.
