Wandy Peralta has opted to stay with the San Diego Padres by exercising his $4.25 million option, securing a potential four-year deal worth $16.5 million. The left-handed reliever had a 3.99 ERA over 46 appearances this season.

In contrast, Ha-Seong Kim has declined his $8 million mutual option, opting for free agency after a challenging season that saw him undergo shoulder surgery. He will receive a $2 million buyout as part of his exit.
