The San Diego Padres say they have reached a deal with Cameron Maybin that goes through at least 2016. The 24-year-old Maybin was traded to the Padres in November 2010 from the Marlins in exchange for two relief pitchers. He was named the team's most valuable player in 2011 after he hit .264 with nine homers and 40 RBIs and stole 40 bases in a career-high 137 games.
