LAS VEGAS (AP) — Right-hander Ryan Weiss became the first of the 183 major league free agents with an announced agreement, a one-year contract with the San Diego Padres.
San Diego said Tuesday the deal includes a team option for 2028.
The 29-year-old Weiss made his major league debut on March 27 and went 0-3 with a 7.62 ERA in two starts and seven relief appearances for the Houston Astros last season. He was optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land on May 5, assigned outright to the Space Cowboys on June 17 and became a major league free agent after the World Series.
Weiss was 5-5 with a 5.42 ERA in 13 starts and nine relief appearances at Triple-A but had a 1.37 ERA over his last four games and 19 2/3 innings.
He signed a $2.6 million, one-year contract with the Astros last Dec. 9 after spending part of 2024 and all of 2025 with the Hanwha Eagles in South Korea.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Three people are dead and three others are in critical condition after a vehicle crashed into people on a sidewalk next to a metro station in North Hollywood on Tuesday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
A white SUV hit at least five people at the busy intersection just before 6 p.m., the Los Angeles Police Department reported. At least three people were taken to the hospital, including the driver, according to officials.
Officials have not determined the cause of the crash or ruled out anything.
“We don’t know if it was done intentionally, if it was done by accident,” LAPD Captain Warner Castillo said at a news conference Tuesday night.
The driver, whose name has not been released, is in his early 60's and officials are doing an exam to check if he was under the influence, Castillo said.
Mayor Karen Bass said the victims included street vendors and pedestrians.
“I’m heartbroken for the families of everyone impacted,” she said in a post on X.
Authorities will be checking the video in the area in what will be a “prolonged but very deliberate investigation,” said LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell.
Photo and video posted online show a white vehicle on a sidewalk next to tents for vendors, along with emergency crews. Posts show a crew moved a person away on a stretcher.
