The former Minnesota fan favorite will head to the open market.

Former Minnesota Twins All-Star Jorge Polanco is headed to the free agent market after having his team option declined by the Seattle Mariners.INF Luis Urías cleared waivers and has elected free agency.Polanco had been due $12 million in 2025. The Twins traded Polanco to Seattle last offseason in a deal that hasn't yet worked out for either team.

The Twins acquired starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani, who missed the entire year with injury. They also acquired reliever Justin Topa, who also missed most of the year with injury. He made just three appearances. The Twins also got two prospects, including Gabriel Gonzalez, who have yet to debut., Polanco hit just .213 as he battled knee problems which eventually required early offseason surgery. He had 16 homers and 45 RBI to go along with a .296 on-base percentage.

Given his prior track record and hopeful good health, Polanco should have no problem finding a major league opportunity in 2025.Brady Farkas is a baseball writer for Fastball on Sports Illustrated/FanNation and the host of 'The Payoff Pitch' podcast which can be found on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
