6:59pm: It’s a one-year deal with a vesting/player option, reports Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times. Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 reports that Polanco could make as much as $11.25MM next season, though it’s not clear whether that’s the base salary or the maximum value after potential incentives.
6:55pm: The Mariners are in agreement to bring back Jorge Polanco, report Ken Rosenthal and Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The agreement is still pending a physical. Assuming that goes according to plan, Polanco will spend a second season in Seattle. Rosenthal reports that Seattle intends to move the longtime second baseman to third base.
Polanco’s first season with the Mariners was a disappointment. Seattle acquired the switch-hitting infielder from the Twins late last offseason. They expected him to provide a significant offensive boost in the middle infield. That didn’t pan out, as Polanco struggled through arguably the worst year of his career. He hit .213/.296/.355 with 16 home runs through 469 plate appearances. The batting average and on-base percentage were personal lows. The slugging percentage was only marginally above his career-worst .354 mark from the shortened 2020 season.
