The Padres signed Japanese reliever Yuki Matsui to a five-year deal, the team announced on Saturday. San Diego has prioritized adding pitching this offseason, bringing in four young arms in the blockbuster deal with the Yankees for Juan Soto, and Matsui joins that list of acquisitions.

The deal is expected to be worth $28 million and includes opt-outs after 2026 and 2027, as well as an injury clause that can convert the fifth year of the contract into a club option, a source told MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand. The club did not disclose the terms of the deal.
