Chase Headley will be a free agent after the season and has acknowledged that his time with the San Diego Padres may be ending.

He will make $10.525 million in 2014 and on the open market could command even more annually.

"It could be," Headley said when asked if this season might be his last with the team that drafted. "I think toward the end of the season, that's when it will really start to sink in. [The season is] such a grind, it overtakes you. So I really haven't sat back and reflected if this is my last season here or not."

Headley has been with San Diego since 2005, when he was a second round pick.
