The Padres’ brightest star has agreed to a contract extension that will keep him in brown and gold for a long, long time.

Fernando Tatis Jr. and the Padres agreed to a 14-year extension worth $340 million, according to multiple reports.

14 years $340 million is a staggering level of commitment both in time & money from @Padres & Tatis. It’s also sure sign that a generational talent (Tatis) really trusts this Pads organization with how his whole career plays out.

At just 22 years old, Tatis Jr. joins teammate Manny Machado in the $300 million contract club.
