The Mariners struck gold with last winter's re-signing of Jorge Polanco on a $6MM free agent deal. They attributed his down 2024 season to a knee injury that had required postseason meniscus surgery. The switch-hitting infielder rewarded their faith by connecting on 26 home runs with a .265/.326/.495 slash across 524 plate appearances. Polanco has certainly put himself in position for a more lucrative trip this time around.

I love this company and everything it stands for. If you don't like the contract, don't sign it. If the bottom guys get paid as much as the top guys, there would be no incentive to get to the top.
